"Most venues had waiting lists of people who wanted to come but couldn't get in which is very rare in the industry at the moment."

"There aren't many comedy acts that can sell venues as fast as that so when a hit comes along the industry is keen to pounce on it and get more shows booked in.

And before you knew it, Ethan, who is equally sharp with both feet, cut inside and unleashed a devastating right-foot finish into former READ MORE MAN UTD Rarely does this United team score four goals. And rarely - if ever- does Amorim celebrate when they do hit the back of the net. In fact, fans will be hard pressed to remember a single time when the Portuguese gaffer joyfully jumped up and down the sideline. We've simply never seen it.

Amorim refuses to guarantee Hojlund Man Utd future amid Sesko transfer push But while Ethan dreams of Old Trafford glory, his uncle Alex, 63, is a true blue icon who would've been celebrating somewhere too. Alex made history when he became the first black goalkeeper to play in the old First Division in 1980, going on to made 125 appearances for City until 1985. He's also a celebrated figure for his incredible 33 years with City in the community, earning an MBE in 2002 - three years before Ethan was born - for his work with young people.
