    Just edited the thread title and OP - it is indeed at 19:30. The preview page is here with a couple of sneak peek video clips: http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b0161mrg

    The Square Ball have released some material not included in the documentary here, including the fact that someone would have invested 10m in United to stave off administration, but only if the council agreed to a series of astounding conditions.

    EDIT: There's going to be reaction to the documentary on Wednesday night on BBC Radio Leeds and the show's panel will feature David Conn and Phil Hay.

    Not even exist?

    How would that have happened, given the number of competing bids to take the club out of administration in 2007? Please describe the situation.

    When last did a club in one of the top four divisions in England cease to exist?

    Is it possible to listen live online? If not, can we expect it to be available to listen online afterwards?

    Just go on the BBC Radio Leeds website and it should be streamed live. Not sure if it's available outside the UK - if not, I'm sure you know the proxy routine.

    The 18's the postcode of where I come from! Apparently there's also going to be a very pro-Bates member of the panel, so the debate might get a bit interesting. Looking forward to it.

    Also, I'd rather you went to London than Manchester. ;)

    Ah, so not "minus 18" just "hyphen 18."

    When I use the proxy and then check my line speed, it usually states that I am in Manchester, England as I sit in West Los Angeles. ;-)
