Today's Football

[IanMcL]

Just tuned to Sky for the results.

Woman reading them out is the worst ever!
Wrong intonation and stuttering over them. Also very slooowww.

[IanMcL]

Elgin1 STRANRAER 0. Just when you think there is an away win on the way!

[Ric_C]

Dyche has got to be on thin ice after today

It's been very sad, bleak and depressing in the streets of Stranraer this afternoon, but then again, that's got bugger all to do with the footy!!

Can they afford to sack him?

[Hbclaret007]

Would take those results. Dropped points for Sunderland and Boro whilst Rovers continue imploding. Happy days.

Can't believe Sunderland couldn't manage a single goal at QPR. Time to sack their manager?

[Dark Cloud]

Todays football could have gone worse for us, but still it wasn't greatly helpful and I feel the pressure is on to keep pace, especially with another tough away game in a few days. It makes tomorrow very hard.
As many have said from the start, Sheff U will be the ones to watch possibly more than any other.

Looking at the match stats, QPR fairly battered the Mackems, more attacks, more shots on, and off, target, more possession and a higher xG.

[kentonclaret]

Stats can be very misleading when over half an hour sees the home side with a man advantage.
BBC report states “The game turned following Bellingham’s poor challenge “ but it does seem QPR are putting in some improved performances.

[hoosier-daddy]

I checked the QPR stats after around 15 minutes into the game and QPR did have around that 60% mark, which was surprising. With more shots/chances. That's not to say they were all over Sunderland but stats-wise they appeared to be having a good go.

Totally agree, I had to switch over, she is terrible at doing this job.

My local side Harborough FC progress to 2nd round of FA Cup with 4-1 away win, after knocking Bury out of cup last round.Not bad for a side with typical gates of 300-ish. Hope they get one of the league sides next. Its really putting our town on the map

[bfcjg]

Just how boring are a lot of " to the formula" Premier league games ?

[burnmark]

Palace 1 up

Wolves equalise.

And thoroughly deserved their win (I was there).

Solid in defence and a much better game plan than Tonbridge.

Tonbridge “fans” singing “this is embarrassing” when it got to 0-3. Just what your team needs!

[burnmark]

2-1 Wolves!

[Vegas Claret]

Wolves fans giving it the 'you don't know what you are doing' chant to O'Neil when he makes the substitutions........5 mins later

[burnmark]

2-2. Great second half!

[Vegas Claret]

did not see this coming after the first half

[hoosier-daddy]

Opted for the Northampton - Kettering game. Kettering levelled not so long ago now 1-1.

[jrgbfc]

Been a decent game this, generally find Prem games pretty dull these days.

[bfcjg]

Just how boring are a lot of " to the formula" Premier league games ?

Obviously I wasn't referring to this one

[burnmark]

Finished 2-2

Kettering into ET

[hoosier-daddy]

Kettering now leading!

I don't care who does it as long as they do it well.
Obviously got the job to 'break new ground'.

Not so sure she should have passed an interview!

It's the world today, boys. get used to it because it's not going away.

Equality should be just that. If you are the best at whatever, you get the job.
TV is littered with so many minorities who appear to get the job because they tick a needed box. If they were just great at what they do then fine otherwise - don't lessen the quality.

[ClaretLoup]

Marvin Sordell on as a sub for Kettering

Came on as a substitute and didn't score... pretty much what he did for us.

i recall a time when (almost) everyone interested in football turned on the radio for the Saturday footy results. Things have changed so much now that I doubt the reading of the results has the same level of importance. The BBC voice is a thing of the past.

Thats good feedback macclaret-thank you. Are you a claret based in Kent or near Market Harborough. If the latter then thats re-assuring there is another claret in my immediate area. Let me now

Neither!

Just fancied a day out at the footy and the pin landed in Tonbridge. I can thoroughly recommend the Nelson Arms.

Will be back home in Macclesfield in time for the highlights.

Maybe but you would expect a voice delivering results would get the speed, detail and highs and lows right, when they read them out.

I rarely listen to football, really. But I love test match special. The BBC is the only place to listen to cricket if that's your thing. Listened to the rugby yesterday.

Football is so global, all the goals are on your phone 5 mins after they're scored. There's streams for most games, theres youtube fan channels all over the place. Only time I ever listen to 5 live for football is if I'm cooking a big dinner that'll take a few hours!

[mkmel]

Come on U Dons....the real ones I mean.

Away at Milton Keynes in the FA Cup

Looked why Odobert still missing from totteringham. Already out for 6 weeks with calf issues. Now out again with 'not the same but same area'. Poor lad. Not what he would want.

How did Martinez get away without a red card at the end?
