Again, maybe I didn't explain my point very well.
What I meant was a pre- go-around brief
immediately before actually doing it, (not 30 minutes before). So you are at 6 miles and despite your best efforts you are still closing on the one ahead, or the one on the runway missed their exit so you are 90% sure you will be going around. Then is the time to say to PM 'OK in a moment we will probably have to go-around. I will call go-around flap..........etc, OK ready?'
