Football Weekly Extra: Milan, Barcelona and a punch-up in Bradford

Pity poor old Barry Glendenning. On today's Football Weekly Extraaaaaaaaaaaaa, AC Jimbo has Paolo Bandini and James Horncastle alongside him circling near- Earth orbit, which means it's a de facto Italian football special.

We start by looking back on Milan holding Barcelona to a goalless draw at San Siro in the Champions League quarter final. As a giant tank-dwelling brain with sparking synapses once said, goals are indeed overrated.

Next, we get up to speed with the rest of the action in Europe and the FA Cup before turning our attention to the Premier League, where Newcastle host Liverpool in the inevitably climactic stand-out fixture.

Finally, we wholeheartedly condemn the 22-man brawl between Crawley and Bradford, tut-tutting so much that we barely had time to read this fabulous Joy of Six piece about the best footballing punch-ups of all time.

Let us know what you think on the blog below.
