A Big Tuesday Night in Footer World
Along with those matches, we've got half a slate of big matches in the Championship, including a crucial clash between WBA (1st) and Preston North End (6th). I'll take a draw there, for sure.
Join me if you're around this afternoon.

Kick-off time!
As we kick off, the top of the Championship looks like this:
WBA - Played 34; 66 points (+26 GD)
Leeds - Played 34; 62 points (+19 GD)
Fulham - Played 34; 57 points (+11 GD)
Brentford - Played 34; 56 points (+27 GD)
Forest - Played 34; 56 points (+12 GD)
PNE - Played 34; 56 points (+11 GD)
Just about kick-off time in the big fixture in the Championship - WBA v. PNE. I'll take a draw in that one for sure, which would put WBA five point up on us and PNE on 57 points.
Forest are playing Cardiff away. For once, I'm an Evil Cardiff fan today. Brentford in 4th are away to bottom of the heap Luton. Come on, you Hatters!
Good Afternoon, Bob. Here to join you for Super Tuesday
They're off from SB
Nice to see both teams in their traditional kits
The Cab Driver collects a shot Muellered straight to him. That's the cost of a Cab Ride
Some fantastic new for Bob as the Hatters take the lead vs the Bees. Barnsley now bottom
Goals flying in L1. UWS will be delighted that Pompey have taken the lead vs the Fake Dons
Tranny surprisingly two up at the Shrews while Fleetwood Mac has taken the lead at the S.O.L. in a playoff six pointer
It's first vs second in L1 . Currently Coventry 0 Rotherham 0
The Baggies take the lead vs PNE, which is better than PNE taking the lead
Wahay! Luton are 1-0 up over Brentford. Well done, the Hatters!
A long goal kick that went for a high flying ride was headed on then Mounted wide after cutting in
Good afternoon, Bob. How are you, mate?
I've forgotten another match. We'll need some help from our country cousins Huddersfield with Bristol Titties today.
Doing well, mate. How's your Tuesday going?
Bayern should have taken the lead . A long ball from the back found Kingsley Coman . He played a one two with Thomas Mueller then shot into the side netting with just Willy Cabs to beat
Doing well, thank you for asking
Tangerines take the lead vs doomed Bolton
In the top two showdown in L1, Rotherham takes the lead at Coventry, which is at St. Andrews this season
Chelsea caught out by a long ball again. Lew got behind Ridger and a close range block from Willy Cabs resulted in a Bayern corner headed wide by Serge Gnabry
Reece James collects a long diagonal pass that is cut out for a corner by David Alaba
I'm reasonably happy with the Championship scores right now. The Baggies are leading and a draw would be better but that's preferable to us than a PNE win. Baggies would be 7 points ahead of us pending our match tomorrow. PNE would be mired on 56 points, six points behind us, in 6th. The biggest plus right now is the Hatters 1-0 up on the Bees. That's very helpful.
The corner is headed down by Olly harmlessly to Neuer.
So far so good today. There also some Championship matches tomorrow.
QPR takes the lead vs the Rams
Olly plays Ross Barkley down the left and he puts in a good cross , which is just in front of Mason Mount, who was in a position to score.
