The ref at Prenton Park's a bit red-card happy....Tranmere and Wolves now both down to 10 men, and it's not half-time yet!!

Walsall 0 Sheffield United 1 is a half-time score - perhaps a need for substitutions(s) sooner rather than later?

Half time at Bescot and still no shots on target, but at least only 1-0 down.

Only three shots from each team, and only 1 on target (Blades' goal). Sounds like a midfield bore-a-thon......

You will do yourself less emotional pain if you come to terms now with idea that the play offs will not be happening.

Walsall need to continuously play the team that old England song "VINDALOOOOOOOOO we're gonna score ONE MORE GOAL than youuuuuuuu...."

Just so they and the manager are reminded of the objective of the game.

Baxendale would have probably scored one and set up one in the last 10 minutes today.

At half-time Sky Bet had us at 7/1 to win. Now we're 1/6....they don't know about our ability to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory, do they?

I hope they are doing this to teach Brandy a lesson and not try and disprove my theories.

I make that Chambers' first ever career league goal!
I think he scored 2 for Watford in the FA Cup

I don't know about that ability either! Unless we are talking in potential terms of changing tactics and ambition which I've always said will yield results if they do it.

Double substitution by Sheffield United.

Preston 3 Port Vale 1 now

Rotherham down to 10 men, and Coventry equalise from the resultant penalty. Now 1-1.
