The Round Ball Game

[Beef Oven!]

2 HUGE Premiership games today!

[cloughie]

Friday 4 April : Leicester City versus Sheffield Wednesday

I would put any money on the Owls improving their goal difference on that day - but then it's a funny old game

[johncorrigan]

Funny old game.

Blinkin' hilarious, Rob.

Dundee United 3 St Mirren 2. From 2-0 up, conceded 3 in the last 11 minutes,11th.

It's made all the worse cos the teams around them, including the Jags, picked up the points. 11th is play-off position...really in need of a booster, and what have we got next but the 'tic...somehow don't see three points coming from that direction...not looking good.

Also best wishes to Inverness Caledonian Thistle tomorrow as the forum defends the Scottish League Cup

They're well underdogs given the way the Dons are going, but hope Big Yogi and his boys can keep the trophy in the forum cabinet.

Cheers Rob but

ouch!

The boy Gerrard can certainly take penalties

[eighthobstruction]

Guisley Rob ????....in funny land now aren't you?....that's 3 roundabouts and a Morrisons....

[teamsaint]

It turns out you can't watch BBC Scotland Live online.

Pathetic.
Scots, and ex pat scots must be pretty irritated by that.
Mind you free university fees probably help the pain for some folks............

Erm err

[Gordon]

Erm err

Apparently no one has ever scored three penalties in the PL!!

Perhaps SG should have left it for someone else - but then who needs penalties to beat ManU?

Seriously though MU didn't really turn up today despite the age old rivalry that usually adds a lot of spice to this fixture and lifts both sides. The Scousers will feel good about this win not because it was MU particularly [although is always helps] but because of the 3 points and it wasn't a huge sweat.

Rats!! Arsenal 1 up already. Come on Spurs.

You didn't miss anything sainty...very poor fare...not at all like last year's epic!
Aberdeen had certainly been practising the pens...clinical! End of a 19 year silver-free hoodoo for the Dons. I'll get it out the trophy cabinet.

a bad weekend all round, north of what may soon be the border JC , what with the Buddies outdoing the southern saints in the" late in the game crisis" stakes

actually, BBC showed the game in a rather lo quality feed on the football news part of the website. Dour stuff, and rotten pens from ICT.

I feel aggrieved at this "no iplayer for BBC Scotland " thing. Whats that all about? WE all pay for BBC Scotland, we should be able to watch it on line. Are Scottish persons not irritated by this injustice?

Fellini has become a real clueless ninny in a red shirt....Evra that forlorn #3 shirt facing goal shoulders slumped ,; before and after goals....Mata not up to derby violence....time to cancel Raphaels visa (if I wanted something rash, I'd more likely go for ring worm)....a decent defence would never let Joe Allen get in the box....so, blaa blaa blaa clumsy oafs, huge gaps between units jeez endless problems....team seem under prepared but Moyes still good bet for future.....I hope....

....EVERY other TV programme seems to have Arvo Part Fratres as underlying doomy theme....perhaps ManU should adopt it when they play.....

yep and do the the blues a favour monopolise the services of one Mr Foy!

Aberdeen are doing rather well. Perhaps it would be good time for Sir Alex to come out of retirement. His time at Aberdeen was miraculous.
