Fall back for Sunday Prem Action

There is some Sunday EPL action as we start with a relegation six pointer as Evil QPR host Reading . This is followed by Liverpool vs Newcastle, a mid table match between two teams that qualified for the Europa League. We also have a couple of FA Cup matches as Burton Albion hosts former giant killers, Altrincham and Bob's Argyle travels a couple of hours along the South Coast to face Dorchester. everyone should be well rested and ready for a natter due to that extra hour of kip.

I think the geniuses at FSC were confused about the time change and as a result the pre match show started a full hour before kick off.

Morning, MUR - boy, I really needed that extra hour last night as I had a particularly long night. Sounds like the suits at FSC could have used it as well. I'm here to enjoy the Reading v. QPR dogfight with you.

Good morning, BD. Here to join you for the relegation six pointer. I think that extra hour of sleep will help us get through this one along with a strong cup of coffee.

Good morning, UWS. Hope that extra hour helped.

Are you going for the record, UWS?

8:32 AM  
Blogger The Blue Devil said...

Reading come into Loftus Road in 18th on 4 points and with a -6GD. Interestingly, they have a game in hand on their rivals. QPR come in dead last on 3pts and -11GD. Neither has had a Premiership win this season.

8:33 AM  
Blogger manunitedrules said...

These teams are playing each other in the top flight for the first time and other than the return fixture in Reading, probably the last time

8:34 AM

Neither may have a win after the match. Sunderland vs Reading was postponed in August due to a waterlogged pitch

Now Taarabt wins a QPR corner.

8:36 AM

Poor corner by Granero is easily cleared by Leigertwood, the former QPR player, who helped them top promotion , but was deemed surplus to requirements once QPR were in the Prem

Cheers, UWS. Always great to hold a record. Unfortunately, I don't know what I did to get those double posts.

Brian McDermott, who played for Arsenal in the early to mid 80s, is in charge of Reading.

I can't see Argyle getting by that challenge. I reckon they might be out first round. They're in terrible financial distress - shame.

I don't remember McDermott as a player, but that was in the dark days of the 80s when there was no telly coverage.

The closest effort so far as Hoilett, the Canadian , shoots just wide. Probably the best player on the pitch and the one most likely to win this match

KASPER GORKSSS , THE FORMER QPR DEFENDER SCRAMBLES HOME AFTER SOME TERRIBLE DEFENDING AND KEEPING OFF THE CORNER.

8:47 AM

Gorkss forces in the first goal - the game really needed that.

8:47 AM  
Blogger manunitedrules said...

Absolutely, UWS. Hoilett is the only one doing anything for QPR. Head tennis in the box and keystone cop defending

8:47 AM  
Blogger The Blue Devil said...

That goal will lift Reading to 7 points but they're still a couple of points shy of Villa in 17th.

8:48 AM  
Blogger manunitedrules said...

So two of the Reading back four are former QPR defenders, who were let go once QPR were promoted.

I agree with David Pleat. Mark Hughes needs to worry more about his team's performance than refereeing decisions. He should be concerned about player safety too. If I were on the QPR board, I would be disappointed in Mark Hughes for that.
