Sunday’s football

[Jim Prideaux]

Really good day of football, particularly looking forward to the play off games.

Todays running order for me:

11:30 - Verona v Torino
12:00 - Coventry v Boro
14:00 - Fiorentina v Udinese
16:05 - Monaco v Lille
16:30 - Arsenal v Brighton
19:00 - Bradford v Carlisle

Fancy a 1-1 draw with Coventry, 2-1 Arsenal and 1-1 in the Bradford game.

Christ, Kelly must be a fair age. I remember him at Killie about 15 years ago.

 

[WinkieWATP]

Christ, Kelly must be a fair age. I remember him at Killie about 15 years ago.

Most Killie fans probably can’t even remember him

Capped for Scotland too.

 

[Jim Prideaux]

Most Killie fans probably can’t even remember him

Capped for Scotland too.

English lower leagues is probably littered with guys like that who picked up caps under Levein and such, see Liam Bridcutt.

Hayden Hackney for Boro is one Scotland should be capping ASAP.

 

[JayDee]

1-0 to Torino. Great strike by Vlasic.

 

[Coopertrueblue]

Man utd Everton ladies cup final

Everton Man City is massive

 

[Dalgety Bear]

Just realised it’s Bobby Madden referee for the Coventry v Boro game

 

[Jim Prideaux]

Just realised it’s Bobby Madden referee for the Coventry v Boro game

It isn’t, mate

 

[Jim Prideaux]

Lad playing right wing for Boro was on loan at QOTS a couple of years back, looked really quick but not much else from memory.

 

[Jim Prideaux]

Not going to lie, I thought that was a decent penalty shout.

 

[Jim Prideaux]

Without being world beaters, Boro look a far better team.

 

[Dalgety Bear]

It isn’t, mate

Oops

Bobby Madley will be the man in the middle for Sunday's Play-Off Semi-Final First Leg meeting with Middlesbrough at the Coventry Building Society Arena.

 

[Awritenobad]

We were linked with Gustavo Hamer (38), Coventry’s defensive midfielder.

 

[WinkieWATP]

1-0 Hamburg

 

[deutschlandbear]

Hannover 1-0 v Darmstadt

 

[giogaddi]

Just realised it’s Bobby Madden referee for the Coventry v Boro game

I don't think there are 2 bald guys on the planet who look less alike than Madden and this guy.

 

[PT98]

Big Rangers flag on display in the HSV end

 

[Waltzingwalter]

The pace of this game has been absolutely unbelievable. Talk about end to end. The fitness of players nowadays is scary

 

[Jamiegatami]

Good game so far Cov v Boro, both teams going for it.

Would like to see Coventry go up, their fans have suffered for years with bad ownership and they somehow ended up with Ashley as their landlord

 

[Jim Prideaux]

Coventry playing better now.

Boro score, but offside. I think the defenders back foot was playing him on.

 

[prsoandnovo222]

I'm predicting everton 1 - 1 man city ,title race back on.

 

[PT98]

Got to be a penalty for HSV surely

 

[PaulieGualtieri]

Boro keeper warned for time wasting. 7/1 for a card

 

[Waltzingwalter]

Good game so far Cov v Boro, both teams going for it.

Would like to see Coventry go up, their fans have suffered for years with bad ownership and they somehow ended up with Ashley as their landlord

The playoff system down south is far simpler, more exciting and fairer than what we have up here.

 

[PT98]

Got to be a penalty for HSV surely

Given. Scored

 

[Mexi]

I don't think there are 2 bald guys on the planet who look less alike than Madden and this guy.

Michael Clarke Duncan and Patrick Harvie?

 

[Qwa]

We were linked with Gustavo Hamer (38), Coventry’s defensive midfielder.

Very good player, terrific passing range.

 

[Qwa]

Michael Clarke Duncan and Patrick Harvie?

There's a Green Mile joke in there somewhere.

 

[WATP1979]

Man utd Everton ladies cup final

Everton Man City is massive

Completely different sport

 

[Bob Belcher]

We were linked with Gustavo Hamer (38), Coventry’s defensive midfielder.

I'd hope we could get someone a bit younger

 

[Jim Prideaux]

I still think Jones is onside there, to be honest

 

[StevieH]

Let’s hope Hamburg keep this up since they are now winning 0-2

 

[deutschlandbear]

Paderborn take the lead v Heidenheim

 

[PT98]

Paderborn take the lead v Heidenheim

It's all going too well for HSV...

 

[deutschlandbear]

2-0 Hannover. Darmstadt look like bottling this

 

[Aragorn]

Man utd Everton ladies cup final

Everton Man City is massive

Should be some game... Everton win and it gives them a bit of breathing space at the bottom of league...City win and the pressure will really be on Arsenal later on.

 

[Jim Prideaux]

Not really been any stand outs in this match.

The lad up top for Coventry has been pretty poor.

 

[deutschlandbear]

Darmstadt get a goal back 1-2

 

[Waltzingwalter]

Not really been any stand outs in this match.

The lad up top for Coventry has been pretty poor.

It’s more the fitness levels that have impressed me. The pace of this game is 10 times higher than our game yesterday.

 

[Brian Laudrup]

3-0 HSV

 

[StevieH]

Hamburg 4 up now, surely they can’t feck up now.

 

[Brian Laudrup]

Hamburg 4 up now, surely they can’t feck up now.

Dont count on it

 

[HowdenEnder]

Coventry fans are singing that song the Everton fans sing with the 'woooooo' in it.

Come on Boro.

 

[Bobby Russell]

Coventry fans are singing that song the Everton fans sing with the 'woooooo' in it.

Come on Boro.

It's 'twist and shout'. Cov have been singing that for decades.

 

[HowdenEnder]

It's 'twist and shout'. Cov have been singing that for decades.

So Everton are copying them? Or do they sing a different song with a 'woooo' in it?

 

[Bobby Russell]

I've never heard Everton singing T&S mate. Probably a different song.

 

[giogaddi]

Lots of huffing and puffing in this play off game but two poor sides.
