Thirty-one points back on my co-host Granville, alas he still seems out of range as my comeback bid seems too little, too late. It might be a similar story for this week’s guest, as Luke Williams, aka d1salbe, remains just over thirty points shy of top spot in the Sky Sports game, with a glittering prize of £30k within tantalising reach.

Jonty joins us to put Luke through his paces with community questions, after Granville and I tackle the ScoutCast regulars, talk over the Moyes ejection, next season’s targets and absent feline friends.

As before, you can view the full cast via the YouTube movie linked below, or stick with the traditional podcast audio and treat your ears to the edited “Director’s Cut” via this link or the handy player.

Mark Mark created the beast. He's now looking to tame it.

    Anybody else wanting the season to be over right now while they are ahead in their ML?

    I was convinced I was getting rid of Suarez then the scoutcast last night made me think otherwise with the talk of Liverpool potentially thumping Newcastle on the final day

    Good prizes up for grabs in my work league and cant handle this anymore roll on 11th May!

    Sometimes being on here can be detrimental to your game. You really have to know when to ignore the nonsense. The Mata may not play rumour definitely comes into that category. The "casuals" won't even consider this and when he inevitably starts they will benefit over those that think about things too much

          Yeah I'm right there with you, Nasri on the bench and I have Mata starting..

          I think Mata at home v Norwich has enough of an upside to justify it over Nasri away to Pulis. Wish we knew if Mata would play though...
