Liverpool dropping points would be so sexy.

[Monty]

Can't say I noticed the BBC distinguishing itself with its football coverage with anything except being mildly more boring. A minor thing, for instance, but you do notice they report on Wrexham like they're the hometown team, which I'm sure pisses off a whole load of fans of other Championship clubs.

And I know why, it's for the same reason you've often correctly pointed out, namely the commercial logic of reporting more on the team owned by Deadpool - but while that works for Talksport or the Guardian, it really shouldn't work for the BBC.

I am not defending the quality of the content. I’m not defending anything, in fact. Just trying to maintain a modicum of sanity while frying my sanity with this club.

Ha, fair, though think how much more fun you could be having with speculating over who the PGMOL assistant is, and how many times in his life he's been to Coventry.

On the Beeb, their failure to follow anything more 'public interest' than 'what the public is interested in (according to our hideous marketing gargoyles)' is, I guess, a bigger question.

Leeds sitting too deep now.  I can see them conceding.

Liverpool dropping points would be so sexy.

Us dropping 3 points at Arsenal is far less consequential than Liverpool, Man U, Chelsea dropping 2 points against Leeds, Wolves and Bournemouth

[Mellin]

All at home too. 'Mon Dirty Leeds.

Liverpool given 6 extra minutes even though there was no stoppage to get the winner.

Yeah, I don’t do referees (partly because I have a half-formed tin foil hat in a Swiss vault).

[martin o`who??]

Six minutes! - who's Mickley mouse watch worked that out??

[PeterWithesShin]

8 subs coming on will count for a chunk of it.

30 secs per sub but must be less when several come on together. The extra time comes from who knows where.

[kippaxvilla2]

Well done Leeds.

[PeterWithesShin]

Leeds and Sunderland are great great sides and clubs.

Over to you Sunderland.

[Ian.]

Oooof! Get in

[eye digress]

Those three points at Elland Rd
looking increasingly valuable.

[Smirker]

Nice.
