    Disappointing draw at Killie's horrible plastic pitch...Still 2nd. Great result for the Eagles. Wee Roy will be happy...gurney too.

      Great away effort from Palace. I was convinced Man U would nick it (see A Villa result) and couldn't bear even to follow the score online. I went and did some gardening and didn't come in till it was over. A very loud cheer ensued.

        Surprised plastic pitches still permitted at that level! There must be great satifaction to be a win above Rangers!

        As for the Owls - very much a case of self-harm inflicted by the owner’s choice of manager and the manager blanking the majority of last season’s side and persevering with a style of play which clearly isn’t working. Time for the owner to put his hands up and say he chose badly, sack the manager and stop blaming the fans. Thanks for all commiseration from the forum but I fear it may get worse!

          Check out the simply appalling reffing of the Liverpool v Spurs game - not just the soi-disant red card but throughout.

            Well done the Saints, a much needed win.

            Sunday lunchtime slot for the Foxes.

              A deserved win and a good game, but will reserve judgement for now. If we can get some consistent selections and build some defensive confidence we could yet have a good season. Long way to go, and Stoke will be fancying their chances on Tuesday night after coming from two down to win at Ashton Gate today.
              Foxes have a decent test tomorrow.
              Well done to Palace, listened to a bit on my way home, and it sounded like a walk in the park…..

              Good to see the Paisley Saints keeping some decent momentum, even on the drastic plastic
              I will not be pushed, filed, stamped, indexed, briefed, debriefed or numbered. My life is my own.

              I am not a number, I am a free man.

                  As ts put it, there's two drastic plastics in the Scottish Premier League it . Totally horrible watching games at Killie or at the Tony Macaroni in Livi...ought to be a law against it.

                    Blackburn Rovers 1 Leicester City 4

                    Only just caught up with this on the telly. A flattering score line but strong in the last ten minutes. Midweek games to look forward to Cloughers, Sainty, Anton, Alison.
                    Buddies v Rangers next Sunday

                      The Foxes are leading the pack in style ! Long way to go , but that is a lot of points in the bag already.

                          Sorry, anton, I didn't get the reference to Le God of Easter Road, but good to be reminded of him. Here's the Hibbees' third most famous fan, Irvine Welsh, on Franck back in 2009.
                          Irvine Welsh writes a love letter to his all-time favourite Hibernian player, the Frenchman Franck Sauzee

                          Rangers dumped their manager last night...clearly couldn't stand being behind the Buddies at this stage of the season. I hope they're not thinking of trying to tempt the Scotland manager...wouldn't put it past them - they've got history on that one.

                            Might even be envying the Buddies’ success and be seeking their management, jc!

                            I think Xisco is thinking of swallowing his pride and going back to the side which turned round fortunes in the play off semi, for the Baggies match on Tuesday evening and then of course next weekend we face Darren Moore’s Huddersfield.
                            We’ve still 111 points to squander before May.
