Me wondering whether Brian Horton's majestic Bertlore 101 gag will make the edit.
The end.
Except it's not because the beauty of football clubs is that the story never ends.
I think that's why days like today - when people who feel like they've been at a place forever have to leave - make grown-ups cry.

Nico O'Reilly hadn't played at left-back 18 months ago. Now he's England's first choice going into a World Cup.
Longish read on his journey to this point, and why his City performances can translate to international football.

Going to be turning my arm over for Cricket News a few times this summer.
I've started off in a really good mood about everything.

Pep Guardiola is set to leave Manchester City at the end of the season, following 10 years in charge. This season's Carabao and FA Cups took his trophy haul to 20.
Just home from tonight's live podcast recording and that's that for another season. It was another great evening and a lovely way to round off 10 years of Guardiola's City, reflecting on what's passed but also previewing what's to come.
