Listen "Newcastle spank Spurs 6-1, Leicester finally win, it's an all-Manchester FA Cup Final, and Wrexham are National League champions!"
Episode Synopsis
As Newcastle smashed Tottenham 6-1 in a performance that showed the direction that both teams are headed in, Mike and Dave look at the state of each team's season. Eddie Howe's team look right at home in the top 4, but how did they get there? And as Spurs sack Christian Stellini, how low will they go until the end of this nightmare season?
Leicester finally ground a 2-1 win over relegation rivals Wolves in Dean Smith's first home game in charge. What has he changed at the club, and is it enough to see them reach safety? The relegation picture seems to change weekly, but who's the most in danger right now?
Manchester United beat Brighton in the FA Cup semi-final to set up a meeting with neighbour City in the Final, with the prospect of another trophy AND thwarting City's treble bid on the line. How did both teams navigate the semis - and should this be the last time they're played at Wembley?
And Wrexham finally clinched promotion from the National League as champions, beating Boreham Wood 3-1 to seal the top spot. After a thrilling season, is this the start of a special journey in north Wales?
