The irony of people from Sunderland commenting and criticising other areas of the uk. As someone who has been up at uni in the North East for the past 4 years and have gone to watch Sunderland on a couple of occasions, I would just like to say how much I am looking forward to revisiting one of the ...

Faded a tad I felt. Guilty of giving the ball away cheaply with a few flicks that didn't come off - as the commentator said, they look great when they come off. Was quite close a couple of times to getting a goal from crosses, one which an outstretched leg wasn't enough to make contact, and another ...

CountryRoyal Starts again for England's final group game against Poland.

Good. Hopefully he can put on a good performance

He's played quite well so far. A good driving run forward and just had a solid 20 + yard shot destined for top corner well saved. Ball retention and distribution decent as well.

I think tidus_m2 called it right - it's all about maximising the TV audience, why would Sky care about being fair or giving clubs equal coverage? They've made it clear from week 1 that Villa, Leeds and Sunderland are where their priorities lie. We will get coverage when we play one of those (maybe)...

Starts again for England's final group game against Poland.

Jesus Christ that whole article is cringe worthy. I think we've found our north east fellow club that loves a spot of tinpottery.

Top Flight So I'm looking forward to this one. Who will be the next star player to progress through the academy?

Axel Andresson.

Heard it here first.

Keep it the same if nothing else, but ideally I'd call for the opposite of this trend.

Go back to the tolerance of like 25 years ago when you could break someone's leg and only get a yellow.

Tommio Yeah I'd have him, very different to yann. Also very young. But he will cost far more than £3.8m. For the money he'd cost, I'd rather we spent it on Assombalonga.

Isn't he more of an attacking midfielder than a striker though?

Hound I will miss the little buzz he always gave the crowd when he went on one of his little runs...

Hound ...which inevitably ended with him being tackled and punching the ground after the ref not giving a free kick

Oh yeah, forgot.

Talk Reading (who are generally pretty reliable) http://www.reactiongifs.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/11/maxwell_smart__confused.gif From what I've seen, they post links to articles/tweets about Reading - and those links may or may not be true - but anything they post without a link to an article ge...

If QPR away gets moved I'm cancelling my sky subscription.

It's obviously too early to gel as undoubtedly some of the teams we expect to do well won't and there will be some surprise packages but the start and run in look pretty tough, especially the latter.

3 London away games before October is sweet though, Fulham away should be fairly warm too

Nah, not buying the anti 60 minutes stuff. Me neither. It makes serious sense to do this and to link it to a law that requires the ball to be out of play before the final whistle is blown. We'd get more football ( see the comment above re the amount of time the ball is currently in play) and there ...

I'm a bit surprised that people are taking this so badly, I think half a dozen good performances in the last month of last season are clouding people's judgement. By and large he has been a bit absent throughout his time at Reading - either through injury or by being a bit of a headless chicken. He...

The 60 minutes cr@p is just that (probably suggested to help make the game more TV and advertising friendly so FIFA can devise ways to sell more of it). The day that happens will be the end of the game as far as I am concerned. Why is it cr@p and how will it be the end of the game? Appreciate it th...

Oilroyal Stoke in for him with a bid of 3.5 million Euros

Not sure what the shock face is for.

Another thing to think about, with the new home shirts to be announced. Who is our main sponsor now, with the new Chinese owners coming in will it still be carabao? Also side note did everyone know that there are new sponsors of the league cup! so its now going to be called the Carabao cup!!! (OMEN...

Would be happy for him to go there. Good luck to the both of them, but I feel if Huddersfield are serious about survival then they'd need more quality than Danny Williams. Squad player sure, but not a prem starter for me.

Why don't we just go all out and change the ball to an oval and make a rule that you can only pass backwards.

Goal line technology is bad enough, no to video refereeing and no to this farcical suggestion.
