1. What do you make of your last result?
I've yet to see the game as Afro just found the link for me - I'd have taken a draw before the game, and am delighted that Kubo got on the scoresheet. I'm looking forward to seeing that goal.

2. Who do you think will be the next manager sacked in the epl?
Mark Hughes. Southampton are in total disarray, and he's a bang-average manager with an unhealthy obsession with scrambled eggs.

3. Who do you think will win I'm a celebrity get me out of here?
Sir Harry of Redknapp, of course. Although my man-crush on John Barrowman knows no end.

4. What's the most unhealthiest thing you've ever eaten?
Olly's sister never showers, so I could say her...but I'll give you the 20 piece fried chicken bucket from the nearby chicken shop at uni. 20 pieces, 8 fries, gravy. All mine.

5. What will you be doing on the upcoming Black Friday?
Campaigning for it to be re-named All-Are-Welcome Friday. I'm sick and tired of the word 'black' being used negatively. Black Market. Black hole. Black death. Black Eyed Peas. Black ice. Black widow spider. Black Friday is the annual rip-off-the-consumer day, where places like Amazon hold 'sales' where prices are higher than they have been several times the same year. I will never take part in such piratical nonsense.

6. Are you keeping a moustache for Movember?
Mrs Azzy doesn't like fuzz, so no. Plus, I still only shave once a week. Never found myself trendy enough to sport stubble, the stuff just doesn't grow.

7. What's your favourite flavour mocktail?
I had to google the word mocktail first, then discovered it's a nickname for drinks that nonces order. I guess if push came to shove, mine would be Pepsi Max on ice. Stirred, not shaken.

1. What do you make of your last result?
Result was poor, as I probably should have won, I feel I need to pick up as many points as I can while I'm playing well because there are going to be games where we don't play well.

2. Who do you think will be the next manager sacked in the epl?
I think it will be someone like Mark Leslie Hughes, not too many managers on thin ice currently.

3. Who do you think will win I'm a celebrity get me out of here?
Hopefully Harry Redknapp, but wouldn't be surprised to see Nick Knowles win.

4. What's the most unhealthiest thing you've ever eaten?
Pizza Hut once did the Cheeseburger Crust Pizza. Not only did I have a big old pepperoni pizza, it had mini cheeseburgers around the edge. Sublime.

5. What will you be doing on the upcoming Black Friday?
Already participated, in Argos' early Black Friday sale I got South Park "The Fractured But Whole" on Nintendo Switch for £17.99 when it's everywhere at between £35 and £50.

6. Are you keeping a moustache for Movember?
No, but I did last year (sort of, I'm no Des Lynam), raised over £100 for good causes, anyone doing it properly is a saint.

7. What's your favourite flavour mocktail?
If you mean any non alcoholic drink ever, then a white chocolate thick shake wins. Or a Vanilla Coke.

1. Always want the win, so disappointed at that, but on the balance of the game, I have to be pleased with a point. I am still rebuilding the squad and I weakened my midfield this week to help in defence, but the midfield then became my downfall when the subs all came on.

2. Mark Hughes has to be treading on thin ice atm. A lot of the managers at the bottom have a lot more credit in the bank than him.

3. No idea who is in it as haven't watched. Whoever the fittest young lady is....

4. Deep fried Mars Bars. Sampled the local cuisine in Glasgow and got to say it was really good.

5. Very little tbh. I think unless you are specifically looking for something, then it is just a con that encourages you to buy stuff you don't want or need.

6. Did it a few years ago and by the end I looked like the love child of Tom Selleck and Super Mario. Not for me again. Might try and grow a full beard of they ever fit that into the name of a month - Febeardary, Octobeard...

7. Go away. Drinking cocktails is bad enough, but then taking out the alcohol. Really what is the point. Best drink I have tried recently is a warm cider with Kraken rum chucked in. Mmmm

1. What do you make of your last result?

Still unbeaten and on 5 points, happy with that. My new signings performed well, Pym pulled off some great saves when Newport had periods of pressure, Derrick Jones was a rock in front of defence and Marius got a debut goal. Hiroki Abe again though was my go to guy.


2. Who do you think will be the next manager sacked in the epl?

Hughes, Southampton have become a total non-entity of a club atm. Don't think anyone would miss them going down.

3. Who do you think will win I'm a celebrity get me out of here?

Usually the one that shrieks the most when bugs crawl on them. Tbh I don't know who's on it this year apart from Harry.

4. What's the most unhealthiest thing you've ever eaten?

Probably a late night donner and chips with chili sauce.

5. What will you be doing on the upcoming Black Friday?

Working! Kids xmas presents already got so unless something particularly catches my eyes I won't be bothering.

6. Are you keeping a moustache for Movember?

I've kept one for the past couple of years. Not for Movember though. The beard and tach makes me look less like Alan Carr.

7. What's your favourite flavour mocktail?

One that has alcohol in it, I'm not 12.

1. What do you make of your last result?
Can't complain about the result although the performance was well below par. Think it reinforced the need for a decent squad as there was a visible drop off in quality from the previous week.

2. Who do you think will be the next manager sacked in the epl?
Southampton seem to be really struggling so I'd have to say Hughes.

3. Who do you think will win I'm a celebrity get me out of here?
No idea who's on there bar Redknapp, he was always entertaining on transfer deadline day so I'll go for Arry.

4. What's the most unhealthiest thing you've ever eaten?
In my younger days I used to enjoy a Lardy cake, in hindsight the fact that it was made from lard suggests it probably wasn't the healthiest.

5. What will you be doing on the upcoming Black Friday?
Never really been into the whole Black Friday thing however with my phone contract up for renewal I'll be keeping an eye out for a bargain.

6. Are you keeping a moustache for Movember?
Completely forgot about it, probably a tad late to start now!

7. What's your favourite flavour mocktail?
A what?

1. What do you make of your last result?

First half I thought my team played very well in a formation I was forced to play through injuries. I think the last 2 goals we conceded shows that we are very weak in defence. I still think it will come good but all managers will say that after 1 point in 3 games.

2. Who do you think will be the next manager sacked in the epl?

I'd say Hughes too. I haven't really rated him as a manager. On par with Keegan

3. Who do you think will win I'm a celebrity get me out of here?

That Roxy bird off Eastenders I reckon

4. What's the most unhealthiest thing you've ever eaten?

Refried kebab with the mayo still on.

5. What will you be doing on the upcoming Black Friday?

Avoiding it at all costs. You end up getting crap you don't need! I may see if there are any deals for the stuff I am already getting at Xmas but that's it

6. Are you keeping a moustache for Movember?

No just my usual hobo look.

7. What's your favourite flavour mocktail?

I don't drink mocktails; it is pointless. Like having coffee with no caffeine.

1. What do you make of your last result?

Good to get back on track with a win - not our best performance but winning when you're playing badly is the sign of Champions.

2. Who do you think will be the next manager sacked in the epl?

Honestly who really cares about the Barclays? The Skybet is where the real action and association football is played.

3. Who do you think will win I'm a celebrity get me out of here?

Emily Atack. I hope Harry Redknapp perishes

4. What's the most unhealthiest thing you've ever eaten?

Nothing too outrageous but when me and my mate went to the NFL two years ago we had Maccies at 10am, Burger King pre game at 2pm then KFC around 10pm back in Norwich. My poo was weird for a week after that

5. What will you be doing on the upcoming Black Friday?

I will be working. Like the fine upstanding citizen of the United Kingdom I am.

6. Are you keeping a moustache for Movember?

No. I haven't hit puberty yet

7. What's your favourite flavour mocktail?

I'm not some sort of raging homosexual, so I only drink lager and IPAs like a true brit #brexitmeansbrexit

1. What do you make of your last result?
Happy to get my first win on the board. Feel for fluxy as he deserved a point.

2. Who do you think will be the next manager sacked in the epl?
I'm going for Neil Warnock. There's just summat about him that I just don't like.

3. Who do you think will win I'm a celebrity get me out of here?
Harry will defo win. Him and the woman off The Chase will get into some kinky Poopie I bet

4. What's the most unhealthiest thing you've ever eaten?
I once are a burger from a local takeaway called the King Kong burger. 5 burgers in 1 patty ffs.

5. What will you be doing on the upcoming Black Friday?
Playing fufa 19 obvs.

6. Are you keeping a moustache for Movember?
No stashe for me this year.

7. What's your favourite flavour mocktail?
Before I get into my favourite flavour I see a few people above don't know what mocktails are. Let my educate you fine folk on what a mocktail is. I'm sure you've all heard of cocktails. Mocktails are that but without the alcohol in it. Perfect for a person such as myself. Getting back to business my favourite flavour is Mango Daiquiri. It is delish.

1. What do you make of your last result?

Ridiculous, unreal football and scoreline that I'd struggle to pull off playing Fifa myself against the AI on amateur given the quality of the two teams seemed similar. Hopefully the start of things to come and not all luck, bring on Ska.

2. Who do you think will be the next manager sacked in the epl?

Mark Hughes seems the obvious favourite going on responses on here, I don't pay any real attention to the goings on at the bottom of the epl.

3. Who do you think will win I'm a celebrity get me out of here?

Emily, the fact she refers to herself as Charlotte big jugs from the Inbetweeners makes her a winner in my eyes. Look forward to seeing her in a bikini.

4. What's the most unhealthiest thing you've ever eaten?

A pizza crunch. A deep fried mars bar is a myth purely reserved for tourists, a deep fried pizza is the real deal, if you've had a couple drinks at least.

5. What will you be doing on the upcoming Black Friday?

I'll be back in my hometown getting suitably pished, as is the Great British tradition on the original Black Friday, the Friday before Christmas. Aptly named because of the amount of people getting black out drunk and black eyes. None of this American Poopie.

6. Are you keeping a moustache for Movember?

Not this year, have done the past couple years but didn't even think to this year. Good effort to anyone that is.

7. What's your favourite flavour mocktail?

A lager shandy. The only time you'd ever mix beer with lemonade is when you're not drinking.

1. What do you make of your last result?

The less said about that rogering the better. I'm going to put it down to new FIFA manager luck and move on, starting with bringing in two big ugly CBs to at least kick these fancy dan attackers if they can't stop them legally.

2. Who do you think will be the next manager sacked in the epl?

I was convinced Mourinho would be out by Xmas until the last few games, so gotta be Hughes. Jokanovic took me a bit by surprise too, they've been awful but think he's a good manager

3. Who do you think will win I'm a celebrity get me out of here?

Whoever is the most pathetic and plays to the fact that the general public are mostly morons. I don't watch it but that's how these things usually go

4. What's the most unhealthiest thing you've ever eaten?

Anyone who has been north of the Watford Gap will know of the delights of a munchie box from a takeaway at 3 in the morning. Absolute beige stodgy filth

5. What will you be doing on the upcoming Black Friday?

Exactly the same as I do every year. Claim its all just marketing nonsense then order some useless crap off Amazon because it says 40% off, use it once then never look at it again

6. Are you keeping a moustache for Movember?

I already have a beard which would be described as "beard game strong" so none of this stupid moustache stuff for me

7. What's your favourite flavour mocktail?

My balls haven't quite shrivelled up inside me yet so I don't tend to drink them. I'd rather just have a nice soft drink instead

1. What do you make of your last result?
We had the better of the play, but the manager has warned the lads against shooting from outside the box. It's typical of his approach, but that approach has us bottom of the league. His position is under threat
2. Who do you think will be the next manager sacked in the epl?
I really think pointlessly discussing other managers from other leagues is a real waste of our time here. But if any part of my name was Leslie, I'd be expecting the police to soon realise I was a bad person
3. Who do you think will win I'm a celebrity get me out of here?
I don't care. None of you should care. You should only want that tit Redknapp to suffer out there
4. What's the most unhealthiest thing you've ever eaten?
I'm sure the metrics for what unhealthy is can differ, but in terms of what it felt like, the "chicken" sausages on the flight from Heathrow to Sydney in July were horrid
5. What will you be doing on the upcoming Black Friday?
Posting angrily on social media about when we get a White Friday, huh? When's the day we celebrate that?!
6. Are you keeping a moustache for Movember?
This is the third question that makes me think you're a diddler, Nadz. For what it's worth, this is the most pathetic of charity attempts and people really need to get over themselves about it

1. I was delighted with my last result. I must say that $ka set up his team very well and could have won it in the early stages, had he gone a couple of goals up which his play probably deserved. But yeah, I'm not going to lie, to be joint top of the league on points is a fantastic achievement for my side. And it's where we deserve to be.


2. I really want it to be Jose Mourinho. I'm sick of him being at United, the poor play. I don't care how much of a so-called winner he is, we should never have sacked Louis van Gaal. We need to bring in a young, exciting coach. Other than Mark Hughes, there aren't really many managers under significant pressure.


3. I like Emily Atack, I was also a big fan of her campaign on Dancing on Ice.


4. Deep fried mars bars are absolutely delicious, but you can feel every calorie. I've had a couple of home-made ones at parties and such. The absolute best one was at a Scottish chippy somewhere near Fort William on New Year's Eve. It was a lovely winter warmer.


5. I live very close to the Trafford Centre, so I'll be going there. I've got a shopping list of games I want to get - Red Dead, Spiderman and FIFA 19 are at the top of it. I'll try and get as much Christmas shopping as possin;e.


6. I haven't done it this year to be honest. I have done it in the past, causing many quizzical looks at my workplace as it is a very old school environment, most of my colleagues are close to retirement. But is it really still a thing, I'm not sure?


7. My experience of Mocktails is very limited I must say - as I've not been the designated driver before I haven't had a reason to not drink. The general selection of non-alcoholic drinks is very poor to be honest, but I like some of the 'proper' lemonades. Of the alcoholic cocktails, I like Espresso Martinis... so Espresso?

Thank you for providing the press conference questions, and in particular the return of the final foodie question which has been missing recently.

Gut-wrenching. Should have probably come away with three points, but instead leaving empty handed - it's disappointing. 

2. Who do you think will be the next manager sacked in the epl?



Probably Mark Hughes - he is Poopie.

3. Who do you think will win I'm a celebrity get me out of here?


Don't really care. Perhaps 'Arry?

4. What's the most unhealthiest thing you've ever eaten? 



There used to be a fast food place around the corner from my uni house, that allowed any two toppings on a 10 inch pizza. You better believe that Donna Meat and hot spicy beef were on that pizza. 

5. What will you be doing on the upcoming Black Friday?


Day off - but working on the farm, and or playing FIFA

6. Are you keeping a moustache for Movember?



I am, although it isn't glorious. 

7. What's your favourite flavour mocktail?


A rum and coke, without the rum?
