The Round Ball Game

[Beef Oven!]

Eva Carneiro, pictured below, Chelsea's first team doctor has left Chelsea following her row with Jose Mourinho following the incident 6 weeks ago when she and physio Jon Fearn, went onto the pitch to treat Hazard in injury time against Swansea.

The good news is that she appears to have joined Manchester United!

According to the BBC, the Football Association is looking into a complaint that Mourinho used abusive or sexist language towards her.

She is considering her legal position.

anton - Looked a good tidy performance from the progress report on BBC Sport - 10 changes and not weakening the side - truth to tell I don't know what our strongest side is - it's all part of our manager's learning curve.
ts - good win over franchise - you'll be in Lancashire Lass's good books!

Great result for the Owls.
Nice result for us, and great to see Ryan Bertrand back, he has been badly missed.
Woeful times up in the NE, AG......

Full round up tomorrow, hopefully. Liverpool v carlisle has gone to penalties, live on SSN.

UPdate: liverpool sneak through on pens.

The haircut of the last carlisle penalty taker will take some beating.....

Well done to your guys, cloughie - McLaren sounding confused after the match.
Early season casualty up here as Motherwell manager binned after defeat from Greenock Morton in last night's league cup at Cappelow. I enjoyed St Johnstone win last night v Rangers at Ibrox. Looking forward to seeing the Bayern supersub Levandowski 2nd half 5 goal tally on Bundesliga highlights tomorrow night.

Good summary ts - edge's super sub?
Interesting that all press comments on the Magpies/Owls match appear to focus on Newcastle playing badly and give. no credit to the Owls reading the game and playing rather well. But then there are no teams outside the sacred overpaid 20 are there?

But Cloughie, you get footy on Thursday nights in the Championship now, as well as every other day of the week.
I am currently enjoying ( ?) watching my team in the North ( apologies to the rest) Huddersfield Town playing Forest.
Don't look to be many folk there.

[EdgeleyRob]

Great stuff ts thanks.
League Cup,I remember it well

More's the pity - Thursday night's not a footie night and if it's on telly more likely to be watched in the pub! No the only way is up to get the recognition we deserve - roll over Arsenal next round and be leading the pack at Christmas. Stuart could have done the job but now it's up to Carlos. Watch the Owls wisely catch their prey.

Leicester 2 Arsenal 5. It can happen.
Liverpool 3 Villa 2. Minimum requirement.
Man utd 3 Sunderland 0. More playground bullying…….
Saints 3 Swansea 1. No idea how it went, as I was working at a glamorous book launch
Newcastle 2 Chelsea 2 . Honours even in board derby.
Stoke 2 Boscombe 1. Still competing well.
Bolton 2 Brighton 2. Points dropped, I would have thought.
Gas 1 poorsmouth 2.. Hopeless.
Luton 2 Wimbledon 0. Mid table season beckoning.
Notts Co 1 York 0. Finding life quite tough.
Yeovil 1 Hartlepool 2. One point off the playoffs.
Brentford 1 Owls 2. Owls flying.
Inverness CT 2 Aberdeen 1. Big result .
Hibs 1 St Mirren 1. A decent day at last for the Buddies.
Motherwell 2 Partick 1. Bottom.
East Stirling 0 Arbroath 4. Oh dear. Bottom of the league.
Wrexham 2 Eastleigh 3. Home defeats always hurt.
The Clarets 0 Ebbsfleet 0 . away replay needed.
Taunton 2 Truro 2. Replay Tuesday, Truro lucky according to their gaffer.
Boldmere 0 Hereford 3

Palace play tomorrow. Think Stockport must be concentrating on the league.
Apologies for anybody I have missed, or got wrong.

[EdgeleyRob]

Cheers ts,great work.
Yes SCFC went out of the cup today before it's even properly started.
Non forum result of the day was surely at White Hart Lane

[Alison]

Well it has finally happened. Foxes run comes to an end.

Another good result Cloughers.
