I didn’t know it at the time and neither did he. But this was our final post match interview with Daniel Farke. He leaves having given #ncfc fans so many great memories. But City fans expected a proper survival fight this season. Up to the club to find someone who can bring that.

Idea for a new rule: If a team does loads of time wasting while winning but then goes behind, all the injury time should disappear. It’s the sort of rule you come up with when your team lets in a stoppage time equaliser.
