Yes, welcome back down and here the James Madison golf day where the vibes are great. Everybody's in great form here. And look, look at this here. Everybody's just getting on with each other. Joe Mar just met him and it feels like we're best friends. No, that wasn't enough. Yeah, it's a bit hot, isn't it? It is a bit hot. It's a bit hot for me. Really sweaty. I'm so sorry. You're all right, Joe. How are you getting all in this heat? I'm struggling.
Yeah, I love it. Yeah. No, you do look like you're struggling a bit. I am struggling, but I'm trying to put on a front. Yeah. Um I love it. What if we weren't doing this? That's what we be doing. Something boring, work, dull, you know what I mean? So, I feel very lucky that I'm here playing some golf. Exactly. And, uh, how's it going so far? You played a couple of holes. How you playing? Yeah. Awful. Hands down the worst golfer here.
Um, always knew I was going to be, but I didn't come for the golf. No. I came for the love and support. And, as you said, the vibes. You said good vibes. The vibes. You know, Joe. But it's a team game today, too. So, how's your team getting on today helping you? Right. Thank whatever lord there is that my team ash and David are just brilliant. Uh with Mark's standing at the minute, Michael McIntyre was meant to be in our team. Uh and I text him saying, "Where are you?" He thought it was on Thursday. So he should be making an appearance for the back nine, but actually I don't want him anymore. Okay. Actually, no, I don't want him.
We'll have to get that arrival shot then. He'll be under pressure when he gets here. He has to get away drinks or something. get around him and get the shot, please, because he'll be all flustered and, you know, all sweaty. Get it? Yeah. And what about James Madison yourself? Have you known James a while or Yeah, me and Jack, it was actually the first time we met in person today. Okay. We met, he slid into my DMs. Yep. Classic. Sure. Uh mutual friend in a physio that we had at Spurs and my time at England.
Um and then during traders, he was just messaging me on thinking, "This is wild." Um, so big fan of James's. My boy is buzzing that I managed to get He's massive football fan and he's buzzing. I managed to get an invite to this. I'm not sure I'm going to Here you go. Get your revival shot in. Oh, here he comes. Mel McIntyre. He's here. He want He wanted it. He wanted the big har, didn't he? It was the classic. He didn't want to arrive with everyone else. Come on in, Mel. You've just arrived just in time. Come on, Michael. Jules just been telling us the whole story. Yeah, great. Well played.
Such an idiot, aren't I? You've gone straight into it. When you were texting me this morning, I thought you were doing that. I thought you were keen. I thought it's not for two days. Yeah, it was a Thursday. He was texting me like I'm going to beat you. I'm going to have you I'm going to thrash you. That's not what I said. I didn't say that, did I? I said we meet again. No, I've actually had to edit the things that you said because they were incredibly offensive and graphic. I've had to edit a lot of the shots that I've taken today as well.
All right. Okay. Well, I'm here. He's here now. Everybody, he wanted the big up for it. He's up for it. Go on. Have a go. Right. Michael, you'll have to send us off here. So, you've just arrived. This your first hole. Yeah. I just realized there was a camera there. I KNOW. NO, HE'S IN AS WELL. There we go. Be so relieved. You must be so relieved. And you? Oh, I'll pass over. Never I've never felt more relieved. Once when I really needed a pee on the motorway. You know when you've you've you made a mistake, you've mistimed and it's like miles till the services.
You're on the verge of going in the car. No milk bottles in the boot. That didn't even come close to I actually cried a bit. How pathetic is that? No, some were. It's relief, isn't it? Mad said it was relief. I just couldn't I mean, can you imagine this day? I wouldn't have come. I wasn't invited. so we can all relax. And how great was matters the last few weeks of the season. He's such a hero and he says all the right things. You know, he was right when he said last week that we should never have been in this position.
It was disgraceful. Embarrassing was the word, but you know, you felt the love for him and I'm really liking his new hairstyle. Matters. Yeah. I love that. And he's come back sharp, hasn't he? So we got in time for the end of the season. Exactly. Yeah. And actually the message is all positive now going into the summer and the new season with this manager. Um you see if we had have gone down Madders and Archie Gray who are here they'd have to be driving around in that going around in that cuz I would not be tolerating them very indeed. That in fact they built that just in
case we were in the Champions. But even for you though over the last few months do people keep mentioning it to you. Oh Spurs are going down. Spurs are going down like winding you up as well Michael we're going to start Michael. I always said no. I genuinely thought we were done for. I thought there was no chance. After some of those games though, the Palace game, the Forest game, they were horrendous. And a year ago, broken a year ago, we were in Bill Ba. Yes, we were there. And you were interviewing Madders injured then as well. Burgal before the game. I remember. Bye. Well, yes.
I don't know. What do you prefer, Bergal or Bwell? Apparently, officially it's Bwell. Sounds like he's a better player as a Berg Val. Yes. Um, yeah. No, it's amazing how things can change. Well, we had like 250,000 people there, you know, for the parade. And now, but the fans were amazing on Sunday. Everything looked amazing. We got over the line. We barely had a chance. We must rebuild. We must start again. And um do you know what I did? I put money on I didn't think I could. I thought I've got to get some pleasure if we get relegated. So, I put quite a lot of money on Everton winning. I think
you're the only one. I would have been up. I would have been like it would have been I would have gone on holiday with the money. But so, I was happy to lose it. Well, Peter Ch Peter Chington's come out. They're going to fully back Roberto Deserby. They heavily invest. Is it all about looking forward now and being positive? Well, do you remember when Leicester just stayed up and then won the league? Yes. Although now they're in the league. We must follow that path. But you like a deserving, don't you? I know you like Derby has been unbelievable. He's galvanized us. He's motivated us. He's obviously, you know, because it's all
about confidence and personality. He's and he's turned everything and the way they're speaking about him. We're very lucky to have him and uh yeah, we're going to win the league next season, aren't we? And you can enjoy today. I can enjoy today. Yeah, I'm fashionably late. Look, he'll be Oh, God. Any good joke? Sounds good. I'm going to leave you to it. Let's have a look. Michael McIntyre here. Spurs fan. A very relieved Spurs fan here at the James Madison Invitational.
