Just realised that Derby are in the Championship relegation zone. I know it doesn't mean much after only six games, but fuck that, they're still in the bottom three.

Hugo Ekitike has just scored in the 85th minute to put Liverpool 2-1 up at home to Southampton. The dozy sod whipped off his shirt to hold up to the crowd, apparently forgetting he was on a yellow card.
Liverpool down to 10 men.
A valiant effort by all accounts, leading until very late on.
Looks (on paper) like they may have 'done a Forest'.
Anyway having a good start to the season, so I'm told. The locals were a bit concerned by a sudden raft of summer sales in July /August. I keep meaning to go down and jump on the glory hunters bandwagon, but I don't want to fuck it for them.
I went to watch the Notts game there and they smashed um, Lincolns 3rd was excellent and worth looking up.
I noticed at the weekend that they were back in the championship bottom three in the same week we are back in Europe. Which them led me to wondering, when was the last time they played in Europe? Answer, in case you were wondering, was losing 5-2 to AEK Athens in the second round of the UEFA cup in 1976.

Apparently these guys are doing some full on Moneyball shit based on a whizzkid analyst who is running their recruitment strategy.
I don't know who the ref is in the West Brom v Leicester match, but he's built like a prize fighter and has a bunch of tattoos on both arms. Don't see officials like that too much.
Also Wout Faes continues to be hilariously shit.
I am very much enjoying TNT showing gobsmacked Man U fans at Brentford.
Except they are a bit happier now.
I do find it hilarious listening to commentators, and particularly the colour guys, trying to pronounce "Caoimhin".
The sheep shaggers are on a weekend in Wales. Not scored yet.
If a sheep shagger can't score in Wales you've got to question thier commitment.
Nope, but Agent O'Brien has...

Apparently made worse/better by the fact that he could/should have been sent off for a nasty tackle in the first half.
Better obvs. The only disappointment was the other guy got up!
