I've registered with avfc.co.uk but says I have to subscribe to watch.
That caught me out too.  You have to register with AVTV.  It's separate from avfc.co.uk.

Nice to see a couple of villa players who can beat a player.  Need a couple more and a finisher and my confidence levels will improve significantly.  Think someone said this before, but if Jack stays focused he will be the chumps player of the season

Shouldn't have to because it isn't on AVTV. It's the first thing on the OS. Just click and go. At least it should be.

I see Newcastle are 3-0 at half time against vitesse Arnhem

Not that I think that really matters but I think they'll run away with the league this year

Gestede really doesn't fit the style RDM is looking to play. But shows our lack of options up front right now.

Reasonably pleased so far, but we definitely need a striker, as this team will not score enough goals to be in promotion shake up.  We've coped pretty well at the back, though Middlesbrough havent been what you'd call adventurous.

They didn't have to change manager, have a very talented manager and on paper have a very decent squad. They should be favourites really. However we are holding our own vs a PL side that was in the Championship last season. It's ultimately this level of talent and worse that we have to beat on a weekly basis.

Go to Matchday> Live Match Centre, scroll right to the bottom, click on WATCH THE MATCH

It asks me to log-in at that point.

Thanks anyway, have it playing through Facebook.

Be interested to see how Tshibola does - have to admit I'd never even heard of him before we signed him

Looks like Tish and Gardner getting a half each as an audition

Do the youngsters have a game in midweek. Wonder if he likes of Green, Lyden, RHM are being save to have a proper look at them then.
