NLD: Who Needs It More? | 2 Years of Sir Jim
Tom White and Jay Bothroyd preview Sunday’s North London Derby, joined by Arsenal fan Scarlet and Spurs supporter Cam to tackle the big question: who needs the win more?
Then to Crystal Palace, who were held to a 1–1 draw by Zrinjski Mostar in their Conference League play-off — a result that leaves them with just one win in 15 and saw frustrated fans aim “sacked in the morning” at Oliver Glasner. Palace supporter Jack joins us to answer: where has it all gone wrong?
Next, two years into Sir Jim Ratcliffe’s era at Manchester United — has anything really changed? United fan KG joins us to assess whether there’s been meaningful progress on the pitch and if the club is any closer to returning to the top.
Finally, Vítor Pereira has made a flying start in charge of Nottingham Forest, thrashing Fenerbahçe 3–0 in their Europa League Play Off — “easy work,” says Jay — as Forest now turn their attention to Liverpool on Super Sunday. We ask: are Forest better placed to survive with Pereira at the helm?
