The Round Ball Game

[EdgeleyRob]

Leicester City 0 visitors 0 I assume LCFC fans would have taken the draw beforehand Alison ?,level on points with Arsenal
Brighton 0 Ipswich Town 1 Conceded the goal on 32 mins,5th game in a row without a win,4th place

[Alison]

Yes, a battling point keeps the show on the road. Good to see the defence play so well.

Eight points clear of fifth place.

Jags a bit unlucky yesterday but the Northern Jags on a good run as players get back playing. And good to see East Stirling getting a result yesterday. But the Saints' result was a real delight for a Saturday afternoon - hope it's the start of a big run away from the drop...hope springs eternal, though it didn't last week.

Thanks Rob, and a happy new year to all and lots of three-pointers to you in the coming months (one-pointers are good too).

Ah, missed your Derby win JC, in the general irritation of our poor run. good news for the Scottish Saints.

the southcoast types are finding new and interesting ways of losing games that they are dominating.

Wanyama not started well in his quest for Hampshire's " Man of the Year " campaign......

and thanks to ER for his round up , as ever. Great work.

Sad to see Vardy diving and cheating an advantage and getting Francis sent off. Glad the keeper saved it. Diving-cheating is ruining the game, IMV. So sad since so much has improved since the 1980s.

Crystal Palace 0 Chelsea 3 Comfortable Blues win,1st away victory in 8 away games,Eagles missing key players,no goals in last 3 games

Very unlucky, for us(The Toon). I would have been happy with a goaless draw, in this match.
