Where is Vicki Sparks joining us from?
Oma varallisuus on elämämme henkilökohtaisimpia asioita. Kun se luottaa toisen hoidettavaksi, pitää sen olla henkilökohtaista myös hänelle. Me OP Privatella ymmärrämme tämän hyvin.
What unexpected food experience did Vicki have in Bologna?
Myös jokaisella meistä on oma taloutemme, jota huolellisesti vaalimme. Samalla sitoutumisella suhtaudumme myös sinun varojesi hoitoon. OP Private. Otamme varojesi hoidon henkilökohtaisesti.

The Commentator's View on the Football Daily with Alistair Bruce Ball, John Murray and Ian Dennis.
Why did John step away from The Masters this year?
Hello, it's the Football Daily. I'm John Murray and this is the Commentator's View where we five live commentators talk about the football, the language of football commentary and what we've been doing on our travels around Europe and around the world, which is relevant. Ali Bruce Ball, because you are back from around the world. Yes, I have been, John.
What does the supercomputer predict for Wolves and Arsenal?
I mean, I couldn't quite believe it when I said it out loud on air, but last week's visit to Augusta National Golf Club in Georgia was my 20th visit to the Masters, which is just, A, I can't believe where that time's gone and just feel so incredibly lucky to have been to that many events. which is an event, you know, I watched as a kid with my dad growing up and never, ever dreamed I would ever get there. And now going there time and time again. But I'm also joining that in that weird. So we're recording this on Friday morning and you will remember this well from your trips to the Masters. It's that odd thing where I'm sitting here on a Friday doing my prep for Leeds against Wolves. knowing that I'm going to be at Ellum Road tomorrow, but knowing that seven days before I was in the peace and quiet and beauty of Amen Corner, and then it's all going to kick off at Ellum Road tomorrow.
I'm going to be updating scores from League Two and promotion and relegation issues. And they couldn't be further apart, those two things. Well, more on all of that in a moment, but we have to say good day to Vicky Sparks, who is joining us from a mystery European location. Vicky Sparks, where are you?
Good morning from Reykjavik in Iceland. This is Vicky Sparks here.
What are some unintended pub names from sports commentary?
Oh, we were just working out off air, weren't we? My Icelandic surname, which is where you take the father's name and add Dotir. So I would be Vicky Kentonsdotir in Iceland.
Yeah. And how is it in Iceland? I must say that I think I've only been there once.
What is the Clash of the Commentators segment about?
I went and covered a Scotland match there and it was one of the favourite ventures that I've been on to go to Iceland.
Do you know what? I've been so excited about this trip. I mean, it's a historic one, firstly for England women. It's going to be their 500th game in their history when they play Iceland on Saturday here in Reykjavik. But, you know, just on a personal level and a little similarly to you, Ali, you know, thinking about all those times you've been at Augusta and almost pinching yourself. You know, the fact that as part of my job, I get to come on these trips and visit these wonderful places and see football played in them. You know, we're just looking out of the The hotel window here, we're up on the 10th floor, so it's quite high. And there are snow-capped mountains that surround all of Reykjavik. And it's a beautiful country.
I've never been. And yeah, just so excited to be here because the landscape is so different to anything that you would experience in England. We've actually seen in the distance these plumes of either steam or smoke shooting up from between two of the snow-capped mountains. And it is the reality of trying to work out, you know, Is it a volcano? Is it a geyser? Is it a geothermal plume of a power station that's shooting up? And, you know, you just don't really ask those questions in England, do you?
Just on Iceland, and I've never been. I'm very envious, Vicky. Actually, that is one I would love to tick off. Yeah, but you've been to the Faroes. Yeah, yes, that's true, John.
