A routine home win over a mid-table team so we'll probably be on 6th or 7th tonight, given the late drama in some of the other games.

Again, just the media's pro-Wolves, anti-Villa bias.

Trying to hide how great we are for some unexplainable reason.

Should be on first given it was the highest ranking team in the table, and a local derby!  But no, I agree with Dave, it will be shunted behind Tottenham and Chelsea's games.  Only 39,000 at Stamford Bridge today.  I thought they were supposed to be a big club?

Our game will be on as an afterthought. Where is lineker ? Programme is an absolute shambles.

We were a pretty routine win in a game that was live on TV and that didn't have much apart from the 2 goals, for the neutral the first 3 games are more exciting.

It's almost like the match they played in was far more entertaining than the most routine, 2-0 home win you could imagine that we played in.

I mean, unless you're suggesting that I dunno, Liverpool 1-0 Crystal Palace should be on before Villa 5-4 Everton just because they're higher in the league?

Just put the matches on from highest in the league downwards? Regardless of what actually happened?

I would have been fine behind the Sheffield United / Fulham match as well. But then he didn't get a response for his first post so tried again and this time people responded.

The Spurs game wasn't exciting.

Agreed, and I'd have been fine being on after the Yanited game if it hadn't finished so late.

4 year old Harriet at the Blades game, with an incurable brain tumour. That's a tough one for the poor kid!

Wilder is a hardworking Yorkshire lad. He works hard for his money.

Made sense.  Good come back at St Execution Park, spuds game was at 3 so in order of how the table changed and a fine performance from Burnley battling relegation against a mid table side.
