Football Weekly Extra: Triumph for Tottenham and a weekend preview

Barry Glendenning, Jonathan Wilson and Sean Ingle join James to wrap up midweek football action.

As Spurs beat Man City at Eastlands to confirm fourth place (at least), the pod discuss future prospects for Harry Redknapp's team in the Champions League, and look at reasons for City missing out. Could it actually be a good thing and assist City's title push next season? And will Roberto Mancini still be around?

Sid Lowe is on the blower with news of a Cristiano Ronaldo hat-trick and predictions for the remainder of the season. As well as the battle at the top, nine teams can still be relegated so things are nicely poised.

There's a preview of the Championship play-offs, where promotion for Blackpool would please the neutral, and of the final round of League One fixtures, where Huddersfield are praying for a miracle.

The fighting at Luton plus fighting Wombles are discussed, and James tells us who the moodiest player he interviewed was back in his Football Italia days.

With the end of the Football Weekly season approaching, we'd love to hear your suggestions for categories in our end of season awards. We'll use them to put together some sort of voting system in the next couple of weeks.

Have a listen and give us your thoughts on the blog below. Remember to find us on Twitter and Facebook, and get your daily dose of our free football email, the Fiver too.
