Last Thursday I spent a couple of hours with Ricky at the mightily impressive City of Manchester stadium.
Britain's most popular boxing star looked like a kid in a sweetshop - he is, of course, a lifelong blue and this really is a dream come true to be starring on what, for him, is hallowed turf.
It was great having a tour around. We went in the changing rooms, where Ricky was charting his own tactics on the team's board into his private box, where he cheers on the boys; then onto the pitch, where the players will be watching him.
