It doesn’t work at all. The clubs coming up should have a year of grace with no relegation. The clubs finishing above them should be relegated. That would have made for a satisfying end of season 😉

There’s no better feeling than when the football club you’ve supported all your life, supports you in your latest venture. A massive thanks to #ManCity for today with promo and pitch side interview etc to promote my new #Oasis book: The Masterplan. And for arranging a 5-2 win too 😊

Most films / TV progs are similar. The Harlan Coben series’ around Manchester do that too. Woody
Allen’s NYC / London movies too. It doesn’t matter (to me). The Ipcress File (the original) took similar liberties. Many locations won’t work televisually, so this is how to solve that problem
