So Ahead Of The Game is just a Radio Edit?

No.

They do radio edits for the radio stations, always, I remember two radio edits for "Good on you son" and "Back on the dance floor" which were shorter than the versions of the record, what we have on streaming services are the full songs.

I never heard in any radio the radio edits mentioned above, and they don't exist in any cd single further than radio promos, but seems they have to do them for the radios anyway.
You might get lucky, now and then

After Ahead Of The Game? But there was also Watch Me Gone.

Yes, after AOTG.  Evidently WMG is just a promotional song.  I'll give you my question with Guy's answer:
I:
Hi Doc!
A questinon: is there a new single coming out before Mark’s album?
Guy:
I believe it’s already bolted. I have done radio edits for both Ahead Of The Game and Two Pairs Of Hands.

Yes. I saw it. I thought Watch Me Gone was the second single :) I'm glad :)

Maybe he wrote "Two Pairs of Hands" by mistake... as long as "Watch me gone" was the second track to be revelead, so the second digital single.

It's possible "Two pairs of hands" goes third digitally, but they send to the radios just the edits he mentioned.

The album version of Ahead Of The Game has a time of 3.56. And that's what we know. But maybe there will be an introduction by Ianto on drums like in the movie.

I got a notification that it is available on Apple Music.. so I guess it will come up on other streaming services within the next minutes as well, if it hasn‘t already ;)

After only one listening I like it, which bodes well.  Very J J Cale.

I've listened to it and I think this tune is much better than almost everything from DTRW. It's JJ Cale with great chord changes and better dynamics than your vintage Cale.
