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.

Yep, seemed fair to me. If Brentford/Man Utd had been a 3pm KO I would've had that ahead of us as well.

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

Absolutely, just a shame they tried to make it about MOTD rather than her. "Here's another dream she's making - a starring role on Match of the Day!"

Not really. A brief mention before the sixth game.

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

I thought it was quite subtle. If he said what he really thought most of the interview would have been beeped out and he’d have been heavily fined.

Is it in Jonathan Pearce's contract that he does all our games now. Seems to always be doing our games these days.

Have to say Stephen Warnock is turning into an excellent pundit .

Yes, he's one of the ones I can listen to.........and anyone who keeps Micah Richards off my screen gets my vote

MOTD is rubbish nowadays.The second Newcastle penalty was an absolute joke but they never even mentioned it.

He must have enjoyed his time with us as he is usually very complementary when talking about us with Sue Smith on Sky Sports.

He must follow our updates as he is one of the few who mentioned our injuries when Sky Sports were crying into their cornflakes about Spurs having a few out.

Sue Smith is another that is excellent at her job too.

Don't let Dr Joseph Barton hear you say that about Sue Smith, he'll go into meltdown. I agree that Stephen Warnock and Sue Smith are very good summarisers, I enjoy their interaction with Dermot Gallagher when disagreeing with his takes on potential or actual penalty calls.

I was thinking the same thing it seems a lot of people are complaining about that. The Sheffield United disallowed goal wasn't mentioned and we've seen these allowed to stand before.
Just a small thing but our offside goal wasn't shown in the highlights which would have balanced up the talk of Wolves dominating in the first 20 minutes.

Watched the full match rerun on Sky this morning and the main commentator  for Sky, Seb Hutchinson, was very balanced and normal and would not turn into a Sky6 sycophant at the drop of a hat.

Was it Hinchcliffe as co-commentator? To listen to him, you'd have thought a Villa fan had just shat in his car.

Yeah what was the deal with him.He was harping on about the missed Wolves chance for most of the match.

He is a c**t.

And he is shit at his job.

He is right up there with Lee Hendrie as one of the worst commentators out there.
