WE CAN'T WRITE THE SCORE HERE. NOT THIS WEEK: Jon and Mike took on the challenge of going dark to all media between 3pm and MOTD. Could they make it through the game, and the 5 hours afterwards, without seeing the score and what went down at the Eitihad. Then, with Colin, they watched the programme not knowing what went on. It wasn't fun and everyone was angry, but to say Mike was on Full on Mike Mode is an understatement. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
