Nicky Butt 0:49
like it. I like it when teams come up and do well like that straight away. Um before we get into the football chat, we always have a little bit of a you know, just a te t. What have you got? A few things. Well, we were chatting off camera though. Uh it's obviously the kids are back at school today. Um before I had kids, my favourite day of the week used to be Friday. Right. Since I've had kids, it's Monday. Hands in, lads who's with me.
Paul Scholes 1:15

Thursday is a good Friday Friday, mate. Thursday is the start of the weekend, really, isn't it? Thursday's really start of the weekend.
Nicky Butt 1:32
Yeah. We've had a questioning straight away. This is uh from Callum in Leeds, who's an Othersfield fan. Uh he wants to know. What were Paul and Nikki like at school? Hm. Did you go same school you two, by the way? Uhhuh.
Paul Scholes 1:51
No. No, we're different areas. But yeah. I gotta say I wasn't a big fan of school. I was a big fan of my friendship group at school. Yeah. But I wasn't Pretty much like everybody uh what you all say, I wasn't really engaged in school. It was all more about not getting in not getting in really trouble. For me, school was all about having a laugh with your mates. Yeah. I was never cheeky to the teachers. I was my dad would have killed me.
Joe Wilkinson 2:18
Yeah.
Paul Scholes 2:18
I I know I got I I pushed the limits, let's be honest, like most most of the lads did. I just didn't like I just didn't like all the work, didn't like the homework, didn't I couldn't wait to get away from school and start and start football. I think when I think when you're looking back at it now, when you sign for United at thirteen fourteen It really puts your mind in a total different I I'm just I was just so focused on trying to be a footballer, and that's not the right thing to do. You've obviously got to try and look look in the background and go, well, maybe I won't make it. But there swings and roundabouts of that. If you're and I get it as parents do with players now, young kids now, you've got to also look at your um education, which the clubs do nowadays, which is brilliant.
Paul Scholes 2:53
But the flip side of that is I was always brought up pretty schools, it would be asked because I could say probably the same as you. Okay. If you want something, go all out and go for it. Go and go and try and make your dreams. And the some it will give and for me it was school that give. I hated school. Yeah.
Nicky Butt 3:07
See, I didn't mind it. Because of what Nikki said, your mates and what have you. Yeah, I I didn't mind like playing football school. You hate it just because of the lessons and all the rest of it. Do you know something? A lot of kids are like that. I were a bit like that with certain lessons, and I think if you have a good teacher, school's better. And what I mean by that is I we all went to school around about the same years. Some of my teachers back in the day would literally turn round, start writing on the board, back to you. Rude. Never engage with her properly. Just as a kid you're just thinking oh shit. You're just thinking
Paul Scholes 3:47
target at your chalk. Teachers back. Don't turn your back. You know where you have excuses when you're talking about. Oh we had a drug ribbon teacher, honestly. Now he used to throw chalk at you. Oh I've had that. Board dusty.
