Today's Football 06/08

[claretburns]

Leicester currently 0-0 at home to Coventry in 19th minute, Bobby Thomas playing for Coventry.

Leeds v Cardiff at 14:30 then Sunderland v Ipswich at 17:00 in the Championship today, all live on Sky.

At 16:00 it will be Man City v Arsenal in Community Shield at Wembley.

[ksrclaret]

Lots of similarities between the way Leicester and Burnley set up, which is perhaps no surprise given who their new manager is.

Decent game so far, Coventry don’t look the same up front with Gyokeres.

[Conroysleftfoot]

Bobby Thomas looking good for Coventry.

[TPClaret]

Losing Gykores and replacing him with Simms

[Burnley Ace]

Agony for the USA!!

[Pickles]

Brilliant shootout in the World Cup just now. Sweden through, USA out.

[ElectroClaret]

Amazing shootout in the WWC yanks out.
Finest of margins on that last peno.

[RVclaret]

Leicester 1 down

[ElectroClaret]

Cov winning

[chekhov]

Cov impressive this half.

[Conroysleftfoot]

For all those who thought Leicester would walk the Champ, they are, at the moment, struggling against Coventry.

[ksrclaret]

Coventry fans really are a strange bunch. Singing at and booing a player who was on loan at them last season and won their young player of the year award.

[EarbyClaret]

Coventry should be 2/3 ahead

Hamer has looked very good - aside from that free kick

[RVclaret]

Not sure why Robins took Hamer off…

[ElectroClaret]

1-1

[simonclaret]

Thomas v Ndidi, Praet and Dewsbury-Hall quality, 1-1

[Burnley Ace]

Thomas had a ‘mare there!

[Conroysleftfoot]

Not sure why Robins took Hamer off…

Perhaps VK just rung him on his mobile and said we'll pay the full fee.

[Claretnick]

Not sure why Robins took Hamer off…

Maybe VK been on the phone with a deal

Oops someone got in before me

[Burnley Ace]

Dewsberry Hall having a stormer!

[RVclaret]

Great game. Two excellent finishes by Dewsbury-Hall.

[Buxtonclaret]

Bet Cov are regretting all those missed chances now.

[Pickles]

Haven't watched all the game but from what I've seen Dewsbury-Hall has been absolutely fantastic. Best wedding venue in the Championship.

[Swizzlestick]

Surprised nobody's been in for Dewsbury-Hall, one of the few shining lights for Leicester last year.

[Pickles]

Coventry shirt is well smart.

[chekhov]

9 minutes added seems a lot to me. There haven’t been that many stoppages.

[The Hung Juror]

Poor defending for the Leicester goals.

[Pickles]

9 minutes added seems a lot to me. There haven’t been that many stoppages.

Ball on average last season was in play for something like an hour. The seemingly long stoppage time is to try and get us back to having ninety-minutes of football.

Sure, just surprised as there weren’t that many stoppages and I didn’t notice any time wasting. Didn’t have a stopwatch on it however.

[ab1882]

Dewsbury-Hall showed his class. Leicester looked dodgy at the back.
Cov looked to have recruited well again, some good signs from their new players.

[Owdsyker]

I thought Cov were comfortable until the three subs came on. What was he thinking taking Hamer off, he was outstanding.

[ElectroClaret]

Dirty Leeds losing

[FCBurnley]

Leeds Bowlered out 0-1

[ab1882]

Odd usage of Ayling first 20 mins of Leeds game, RB out of possession then charged with being wide right in forward line when in possession. Tough on "old" legs... and Cardiff ahead after exploiting a huge gap

[Conroysleftfoot]

Leeds seem to be playing the same way they have for the last few seasons, lively and exciting going forward crap in defence.

[Swizzlestick]

Didn’t realise Bowler was at Cardiff. Extremely hot and cold player but if you can get a tune out of him certainly has something extra.

[ElectroClaret]

Two for the Taffs!

[Vegas Claret]

[FCBurnley]

Bowler assist gir the second

[FCBurnley]

Leeds seem to be playing the same way they have for the last few seasons, lively and exciting going forward crap in defence.

You are right about the defending

[ElectroClaret]

Can't quite work out at the moment if it's Leeds being crap or Cardiff good or a bit o both.

Long way to go yet though.

[Gp8419]

Too the guy in the sports bar In Harrogate who told me to sit down and tell me how much of a shithole Burnley is when I cheered a goal in over brum last Xmas f*** you ! Bliss

[FCBurnley]

How much is Bamford stealing from Leeds. Another injury that will keep him out until after International break.
Crowd totally flat. 0-2HT

[ClaretInLeeds]

The sooner Leeds start losing again, the better. It’s a ******* to drive anywhere near me on a matchday. They will all bugger off after a few poor results.

[onewillieirvine]

I've just seen that City team and subs.

[ElectroClaret]

1-2

[claretburns]

On that City starting line up, pretty much the line up for next week I'd imagine apart from Ederson for Ortega and De Bruyne for Alvarez.

[Carwin261]

Community Sheild ,Roy Keane as a pundit ,but why do we have to have Chelsea ladies team manager? If we have to have a lady let’s have one with a connection to the 2 teams ,box ticking Sky.

[FCBurnley]

Cooper scores but is inured and is stretchered off. Big miss by Cardiff

[Pickles]

If we have to have a lady let’s have one with a connection to the 2 teams ,box ticking Sky.

Disagree. I prefer a bit of neutrality.
