Tonight's Football

[ChrisC]

Chuffed for Lambert. Might not play for the big boys but how many of the top men have scored with there first touch as an international?

Banging header!

[Relentless09]

Great win for Northern Ireland tonight against Russia

[Harry Genshaw]

T'rovers 0-2 down at Doncaster

Superb result for Blackburn 1 point from their first 3 games, could they do worse than last season?

I was hoping now Brucie had binned off Mr Rhodes in the FF he was nailed on for a hat-trick

Well it usually works a treat.

Very decent game on between Leeds and Sheff W just now. I don't remember Steven Warnock going to Leeds

[malcd1]

So Wigan also lost today and had a man sent off.

That dirty feck McManananaman was a substitute but he was sent off after 3 minutes and 14 seconds of being introduced.

He went there as they could afford to pay him the wages we could not afford.

This is the Leeds who, apparently, can't afford to pay Mills wages.

Funny old game is football.



I liked Warnock.

[thebish]

where is everyone?? ahhhh - MOTD is on with some top, top premiership players to watch! and ManU!! you wouldn't want to miss that!!

[Worthy4England]

At this rate, I'm going to start getting into celebrity dancing on ice or whatever it is.

Might even get a season ticket for it.

Don't get too hooked into it. Mrs AT says it is being canned at the end of the series (season for you yanks). Hang in there. Those cheeky Geordies will be back down under around soon enough. We might even find a win by then

Ahh yes, that were it. I liked Warnock too, but on the evidence so far I prefer Tierney.

BWFC in good full-back shocker?

Observation from the Palace Spurs match.

What a player that Jedinak is. An absolute beast. Superb.

Who does he play for? I've just had it on in the car for half an hour - the only time I knew which side were in possession was when Lennon had it.

Palace. Australian international. Really impressive.

Tell me what you think of this. I've just watched the last half an hour and one thing that's really impressed me is how organised Palace are at the back. Now then, is that Holloway's work? (and I'm doubting that it is) If not then it must be the defence that he inherited from Douglas, no? Now compare that with the bugger's muddle that calls itself a defence at our pace. WTF, as I believe is the popular expression.

I quite liked the look of Wilbraham, thought Lennon played well for Spurs as well.

Aye but I think it's easier to sit back and soak it up when that's all you are going to do for an hour. Palace did the same at our place last season. It's why they were at the top when Dougie left. Very well organised, sat back, soaked it up, and hit on the break.

I think we are working towards that. Trouble is people then start getting arsey that we are inviting teams onto us, and then people say we are good enough to go and dominate games.

That Palace defence looked shaky when Holloway started trying to play in the other sides half more last season.

I personally think we are well organised. We seem to concede from individual errors rather than teams cutting through the midfield as happened at the start of last season. Burnley goal came down to a poor Knight header and a cock up by Wheater, from a long clearance. Reading goal through Wheaters clumsiness. Forests first goal a shocking pass from Knight.

I'm not convinced coaching can do much about that.

I don't often agree with you but I think you have hit the nail on the head. I think they can only be coached so far and then it is down to the personnel. When we have Knight and Wheater. Enough said.
