Summer 2026

“Seventy-two matches. Every one called before kick-off, every one on the record. Come and beat me while I’m busy.”

And after the final?

The Premier League?
We’ll see.

This summer is the trial. If enough of you turn up, and the Gaffer comes out of it with his ego intact, there is talk of him taking on a full Premier League season: 38 gameweeks, every pick public, nowhere to hide. Talk, mind. Nothing is signed.

“Beat me at the World Cup first. Then we’ll discuss the day job.”
