Good to see WBA win. Still early, but the bookies in terms of top 2, promotion, top 6 etc. odds kind of have a clearer 7 teams - the obvious current top 2, Leeds, Southampton, Boro, Sunderland, and WBA.

A few other teams are currently up there, like Hull and Cardiff, but possibly more likely to fall away like what we are seeing with Preston following their excellent start. Watford and Norwich are looking bang average, and there's not many other parachute teams around, and beaten playoff finalists Coventry are well off the pace points wise, so it possibly / probably will be the likes of Leeds, Southampton, Boro and WBA that prevent Sunderland from making the playoffs again, so I'd therefore like to see those win more often than not.

Neither of them are on? How odd. I just assumed Boro would be on.

Aye, they've gone for 2 on Weds crossing over. Not helped by most of the clubs playing on Sunday due to Europe, but in the past they have put a match on the Thursday instead. Mind, I know it was an earlier round, against lesser opposition, and almost certainly not a priority to either, but Sunderland played Crewe in the League Cup on the Tuesday evening after playing Ipswich at 5pm two days earlier on the Sunday.

It's a poor week for live football. Nothing appeals to me on Tuesday and Thursday, and I can't really be bothered with our match too much, although I will of course be watching.

 

Leicester vs Leeds does look really good on Friday though.

 

Sorry, I had to smile at this. I'm from the generation where usually the only live football was the Cup Final and England's World Cup and Euro matches.

Try spending '73 to '80 in Berwick. We had Sportscene and fuck all else

Feels like the standard of football in the Championship has come on dramatically from what little I’ve seen.

Now I haven't checked, this is a hunch but I bet in the Sunderland thread people are saying about how bad the standard is.

Don’t even try to explain to the kids what Sundays - not just in terms of football - were like in the 70s and 80s either.

Sunday is still fairly bleak in the UK, even in London.

 

There's so much more going on in Milan or Barcelona on a Sunday.

I can see all top 5 sides winning this round.. That will mean 22 out of 30 points for 5th place after 10 games, 2.2 points per game. Kind of wild to be honest, might even be a new record.

Should also be a record for 5th place then.
