Twice in 2 game weeks that Union have conceded an injury time goal to lose the match. Last kick of the game here.

Salzburg vs Sociedad or Union Berlin vs Braga at 5.45?

Christ, game over already. 0-2.

1-0 Chelsea, Mudryk. It had been coming, Fulham have barely got going.

At Madrid vs Feyenoord is one of the two 5.45pm matches on Wednesday, so a good chance to see him (should he feature of course).

2 years ago today. The final match of the Mike Ashley era.

He's got nothing left.

That lengthy gap has actually got me quite looking forward to this Rennes vs Nantes derby on TNT. Rennes unbeaten in the league, but have drawn their last 5, Nantes unbeaten in 4. Can't say I've heard of many of these players. Mandonda and Matic for Rennes. Didn't realise our old boy Sissoko was at Nantes these days, but he's on the bench tonight along with Marquinhos, on loan from Arsenal.

Didn't even realise that he played for River Plate now. I always thought that River were the most iconic club in Argentina, but Boca seem to be the general consensus.

The match definitely picked up from the red card onwards after a dross first hour. I was hoping Forest would hang on (they did), and even Chrissy Wood had a chance to win it in injury time.

You wouldn't think a team (Brentford) would normally only be 11/4 to win in the 92nd minute, ha.

13 mins

Gibbs White with a great challenge, potentially match saving. Should have been hacked down earlier.

What a header!

Forest down to 10, and Brentford have just scored from the free kick, so the complexion has totally changed, although it is subject to VAR.

You'd often get this type of match on Sunday at 2pm, but you'd pretty much always have one of the bigger / better clubs, often against each other, or at least away to a fairly significant club at 4.30pm, so often a kind of get it out of the way to the main event, but it's grim when this is the main event . Sunday 4.30pm is definitely the best slot of the week for an armchair fan IMO, which does make it more annoying.

Not the most glamourous PL game, but at least there's no obvious favourite which always adds a bit more intrigue. I didn't know who the bookies would favour here and have just seen it's 13/8 (Forest) vs 15/8 at Bet365, so very close.

I guess that's one good thing about Newcastle being far away from most in this country and both regional rivals currently not being in the same league. They do look a good run of fixtures, and annoyingly they have already played us, Liverpool, and Chelsea away and still doing well, but away to Wolves and Forest could be trickier than they sound, especially the former, mainly due to geographical reasons. Wolves did take 4 points off them last season, both under Emery, and those games will obviously mean more to the crowd. Wouldn't be a huge surprise though if they did win most of them as you say. If they did win 9 or 10 of their first 12 games then it would be pretty impressive.

Leicester a goal up against Bburn after 3 mins, fake Colo with the goal. I don't think Preston getting thumped was a shock yesterday, they won pretty much every match, possibly all of them by a single goal, and will more than likely sift back down to midtable in the coming months. Not sure Ipswich will last the pace either, it will be very impressive if they do, so hopefully Leicester can keep pushing on and comfortably take one of the two automatic slots, and less leeway for those down the road 1-1 now. Two goals inside 8 mins.

Aye, possibly, especially with it being live on ITV1 as well. Probably makes sense for Sky to save some of their better stuff.

There's obviously other means to watch football these days (which I don't personally bother with), and just stick to terrestrial, Sky, TNT, Amazone etc. but the Spanish match being on Viaplay doesn't help. I did get it over the summer, was a right faff on trying to cancel, ended up keeping it for another month which I didn't want. Cancelled it at the bank after that, before eventually finding a way via a lengthy phone call with someone at Sky, so vowed never to purchase Viaplay again . That women's match is at 5.30pm. It's good in a way that women's football is more widely available - you go on to live-footballontv.com and around half the matches these days are women's, and a lot of them are free on the likes of FA Player, but despite all the success and feel good factor of the Lionesses, I just can't imagine the average person who would automatically tune into any Super Sunday match at 4.30pm, be like, can't wait for this Birmingham vs London Lionesses match later on. I'd imagine the lack of 4.30pm game would be due to a combo of the Ryder Cup final day, and to try and get as many additional eyes on the WSL with it being the first day of the season, but there's no doubt the average football fan on Sky will be thinking they are getting a far worse service today, and the ratings will reflect this, so hopefully it's not too common going forward and the heavy WSL promotion is mainly kept to men's international breaks.

Aye, it's grim, badly missing that marquee 4.30pm match. I probably will end up watching Blackburn vs Leicester and Forest vs Brentford though, and far more hipster, but Rennes vs Nantes at 7.45pm on TNT Sports could be OK - I do like watching random derbies.

I think that was probably more to do with avoiding a far more obvious yellow a few mins earlier. Almost certainly would have been in the refs thoughts.

Miggy winner in that good end of season run, season before last.
