Real-Barca almost 5 minutes old yet Sky don't start showing the game until 17:15.
They're not allowed - no live football can be shown in the UK between 2.45pm and 5.15pm.

Really? Never knew that.

Anyway, I wonder if those watching el calssico consider that both clubs are also as bad for the game as certain oft criticised English clubs, are?

How about games that start at 1.30 on Sunday? Or are we talking Saturday's?

Watching the match doesn't really imply any acceptance of badness.

Especially not for Villa fans. There has to be some watchable football for us somewhere ;-)

I watched Liverpool - Hull today.

Was quite impressed with Hull, especially in the first half, when they played pretty much the same way we did up there. Under lots more pressure in the second half, but well worth a point.

Gerrard and Coutinho looked the part for Liverpool, but the rest were very, very underwhelming.

So why isn't Albrighton playing for Leicester, is he injured?

Probably the same reason he didn't that often for us when not injured.

I am guessing he doesn't start very often because he was signed as a squad, and given their strong start to the season he has not be able to break into the side. 

Doc Savage just said on 606 that Villa fans don't want to see the Blues struggle like this?  I don't know about that, but I certainly enjoyed today!

Saturdays. So that people don't sit at home watching TV rather than going to matches.

Dirty Leeds have sacked another manager. They're obviously aiming to give Small Heath a run for their money in the race to the bottom.

Started the season with Bony in my dream team, he didn't score in the first four or five games so I dropped him, since then he has been flying, typical!

Ahahahaha.

Who else remembers all of the after eight' jokes after the Chelsea game?

Yes, I remember.  My uncle went out and bought me some for Christmas a few days later, along with MON's biography.. Dont know which was more insulting

Tomorrows back pages just in.....

The Mail goes with 'Blues picked off by Cherries'

Times leads with 'Blues need Cherrypicker to climb table.'

The People run with 'Bournemouth Pop Blues Cherry.'

Mirror 'Blues Creamed as Pugh puts cherries on Top.'

Sunday Sport. 'Blues owner promises £40m per window to stem slump.'

Ain't that the truth.....or an arrest of a 'former player' that was a trialist for a week in 1993.
