Just beat me to it!!
I'll be here cheering on the two Uniteds
Two easy wins would be just the ticket!!
I am listening to talkSport 2 right now on my phone... The QPR Fulham match starts at the top of the hour....I will let you know if it gets blacked out
Starts at 1:30 not 1
talksport2 are around the 1 o'clockers
The commentary on TS2 from Elland Road starts AFTER the Loftus Road match ends
Thanks for the intel, Dave. It'll be great to share these matches with you this afternoon.
Bugger! Brentford have taken the lead in their match at Reading. They're really the danger for us now, with Fulham having fallen away.
Fulham are 1-0 down at Loftus Road. Another defeat today and they'd really be out of the running for automatic promotion.
Brentford are now five points clear of Fulham and only two points shy of WBA and five points behind us. They're late run might well put them in position to nudge into the automatic promotion spots.
Fulham have leveled it at Loftus Road. That closes the gap with Brentford to four points now.
Good afternoon, Bob and Dave. Here to join you for the afternoon matches.
The Bees ride the crazy rails as they go two up at the Reading Railroad. They are the in form team in the Championship
In other matches , Barnsley is one up vs Blackburn and it's 1-1 between the Evil Lions and the Swans
Hiya, David - great to have you on board this afternoon. How's your day been?
Wow - Citeh have sold Leroy Sane for £56 million!
Hey Boys,
I have my laptop back
Man Utd XI: De Gea, Wan-Bissaka, Lindelof, Maguire, Shaw, Pogba, Matic, Fernandes, Greenwood, Rashford, Martial.
Brighton XI: Ryan, Lamptey, Duffy, Dunk, Burn, Montoya, Bissouma, Stephens, Propper, MacAllister, Connolly.
Shame TS2 is finishing the match at LR before going to ER
We are going to miss the first 35 minutes!
They should have had commentary on one of the earlier kick offs
BBC Talk Sport 2 is on the QPR v. Fulham match for the second half. I'm off to the FotMob commentary for the Leeds v. Luton match. Meanwhile, of course, the Brighton v. United match is on the box. Loads of football for a Tuesday in late June!
Blackburn down to ten men and down two nil at Barnsley
The bottom clubs are on fire right now... don't even think of it Luton!
I'm sorry to say that it hasn't been a great day today, but thank you for asking. Chatting with both of you will help make it a better day
Not BBC...Talksport
Are any matches on Plus today? Will I need to download an app to be on Talksport?
Agreed, Dave. Luton would be better off going to Bedfordshire
The squad for tonight's match is unchanged from Saturday:
Meslier, Ayling, White, Coop, Stu Dallas, Kal, Klich, Harrison, Helder, Tyler, Patrick.
Subs: Miazek, Berardi, Alioski, Douglas, Struijk, Shackleton, Gotts, Poveda, Pablo.
Yeah - if you don't have Talk Sport then you can download the app onto your phone. The link is in the text thread that Dave started today.
Wow...NBC acknowledge that Football was around before the Prem
I hate that I like the YNWA song
Leeds have kicked off
COME ON LEEDS U
COME ON LEEDS U
COME ON LEEDS U
We're underway at Elland Road - for some reason, FotMob hasn't joined in yet.
I'm sorry, but I can't find the link. Would someone be able to send it?
Cheers, mate! MOT!
COME ON LEEDS! MOT!
See that Carl Reiner died...98... good innings!
I watch the Dick Van Dyke Show every night...very funny
Luton's Callum McManaman is booked within seconds of kick-off and we have an early free kick chance. Come on!
https://talksport.com/radioplayer/live/talksport2.html?popup=1
Carl Reiner - what a legend. I saw a really sweet story about how he and Mel Brooks had a regular Zoom session during the virus. They were used to having lunch together every day before the pandemic.
Brentford three nil up!!
Will they be #50 for the Premier League?..... WITH A BRAND NEW STADIUM!
Liam Cooper is down needing treatment now.
Brentford have won 3-0.....great restart for the Bees...beat Fulham, WBA and Brentford...outscoring them 6-0!
Brentford need to knock it off!
There have been shut downs in the city of Leicester but it was just announced that Leicester will still be able to host matches
They can catch up WBA
Barkley have won 2-0 vs Blackburn
Barnsley have beaten Blackburn 2-0, which is very bad news for Luton and Hull. They're off the bottom with the Hatters dropping to the bottom again.
I don't trust it - I remember last season how a late run by Sheffield United edged us out.
Luton are now bottom....hope they stay there !
Bottom of the table
Charlton 46
Stoke 44
Boro 44
Hull 42
Hudders 42
Barnsley 41
Luton 40
Liam Cooper off hurt
Bielsa is forced to make an early change with Berardi coming on for Coop. Not good at all.
Cardiff's hot restart cooled off
0-0 vs Charlton
Oh - Tyler flashes a shot just over the bar. Close call for us.
Mad scramble in the Luton box now; somehow the Hatters scramble it clear. Then Helder fires over. It sounds like we're all over them.
Luton have a pen shout turned down
Fulham take the lead !
My radio is behind the time
Meslier with a good save from Sonny Bradley.
Not good at all - both Brentford and Fulham picking up points.
All Leeds have to do is win...let West Brom worry about Brentford and Fulham
I'm back from Very dirty diaper duty and am attempting to load the match from ER
Sure, that's true.
You're a good sport, David.
for some reason I got the match at Loftus Road instead of ER
Cheers, Bob.
United, THANKFULLY, wearing their traditional colors as they come into the tunnel
Come on United...score early and OFTEN
The announcer stated they're off to ER once this match ends
United coming out at the Amex now.
Both teams out at the Amex.... still lining up... hate it!
The Bees are the in form team and I'm expecting them to go up with the Baggies and Leeds
"Luton haven't exactly been pulled back"
Kick off time at the Amex - come on, United!
Off we go on the south coast
COME ON MAN U
COME ON MAN U
COME ON MAN U
They're off from the AMEX.
COME ON MAN UNITED!
Please play with pace United!
Ball in the box early...wrong pass by Rash
Oh - of the bar for QPR. Nearly Desmond at Loftus Road.
too slow already
QPR hit the crossbar
Shaw with not a great cross but Martial almost gets a chance
oh! nearly Desmond at Loftus Raod as a QPR header from a corner crashed off the bar
If Martial had left it... Bruno was in!!
Strange as this may sound, United are the in form team in the Prem. That's a complete surprise
GET THE BALL IN THE BOX... finally...cleared
United with all the early pressure
All United so far. Brighton certainly have everything to play for. They're still not completely safe at 33 points.
Stupid foul by Lindeloff
6 added minutes at LR...these numbers are ridiculous
It is not a 90 minute game anymore!
Half a dozen stoppage time minutes at Loftus Road
A Leeds win....would make the table look wonderful
A win and a draw should be enough to clinch safety for the Seagulls, but not tonight
TOO slow United!
They pass it round the back...and lose it
Tim Ream with a sliced clearance for a corner.
By the sounds of it...the crowd noise is being played inside the stadium
No save by Luton keeper yet.... sad state of the modern game
TalkSport two minutes behind FOTMOB with the report at ER
Right now, we're four points up on WBA, albeit with a game more played, six points up on Brentford and eight points up on Fulham.
SPEED UP UNITED
United lose the ball in their own half...luckily a foul called
KNOCK IT OFF
Last chance saloon for QPR now - come on!
Wigan take the lead at home to Stoke
Did they say that "Argentinian " is related to Gary McAllister?
Again...Fulham not really relevant any more
It is Brentford
That's it at Loftus Road - should be off to Elland Road momentarily.
All over at LR....now go to ER
Leeds have been kind and waited until we arrived before scoring
I would have counted Fulham out if they'd lost again tonight. But a win keeps them in the mix.
Bruno hits the post!!
BUGGER
Just to let you all know our County effective tonight is will be having a mandatory curfew from 10 PM to 6 AM for people under 17 and from 11 PM to 5 AM for People over the age of 18. The beach and all parks closed till July 13th. Your thoughts?
Saw that from Bruno. A shame he didn't give United the lead, but United should score soon.
BLOODY SHORT CORNER!!!
Ball never gets across!
Talk Sport now at ER
The scary thing for us is that we had 76 points at this stage last season. Still didn't get promoted. So, I'm sweating every point.
Martial is playing too deep
Cammy Carter Vickers heads out for a Leeds corner
NO ONE IS IN THE BOX
Into stoppage time at Elland Road - not good enough. We'll need to make changes again at the interval.
grrrrr this passing drives me nuts!!
GOING NO WHERE!
I don't blame you,Bob, but I sense promotion this time around. It feels different this year
Ridiculous by United... I HATE THIS CRAP!!
The ball goes no where near the box forever
Late comer chance now. Short again.
Into an LOB blogging trio of stoppage time minutes at ER
Shaw with a modern day cross...no idea who he's kicking it to
Tyler Roberts wins a corner taken short and it's out for another
Wahay! Greenwood puts United ahead!
YES!!!!! GREENWOOD!!
HE RUNS TOWARD THE GOAL...SHOOTS!!
WHAT A SHOCKER!
YESSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!
MASON GREENWOOD GIVES UNITED THE LEAD
Now score more!!!
Mason Greenwood got a pass, went on a run then beat Matty Ryan at the near post. A totally deserved lead
Corner to Leeds late in the half...of course...it won't matter
Leeds get a shot....HT 0-0
Top vs Bottom....come on TOP
Oh - Klich produces a good save out of Sluga. And that's the end of the first half.
0-0 Not good enough.
Klich with a shot straight to the keeper and it's 0-0 at the half at ER
A Leeds win would give them a NINE point lead from Third
Bees can only 87.... Leeds would only need 11 points
Bissouma fouls Pogba just outside the Seagulls box
Free kick chance for United... Rash or Bruno... I think it will be Bruno
Come on....stick it in..well over
Free kick from Bruno several feet over
A Karate chopped run is dunked out for a United corner
Maguire heads the corner high and wide
Decent corner from Bruno...header from Maguire heads wide
Bloody drinkies
Time for drinkies at the AMEX
I think Leeds are going to be last season's Norwich.... WBA will be Leeds
Worst points tally since 1991.... the league itself is so much weaker in my book. That's why I don't believe Liverpool are as good as everyone is saying
Obiwan gets a chance to cross... blocked...another chance... cuts it to Greenwood...WHO KICKS IT BACK OUTSIDE THE BOX
Dave, those are good points you mentioned. Will the Bees be last season's Blades?
Crudite and onion dip for a half time snack now.
YES!! TWO NIL....BRUNO!!!
Thought the chance was blown!
2-0! United are romping it!
It's not going to count!
It is going to be called back for offside
WAY HAY! BRUNO AT THE DOUBLE AS UNITED ARE TWO UP.NICE PASS FROM RASH AND THEN A PASS SHAW WAS CUT BACK AND WHILE BRUNO DID NOT HIT THAT LONG RANGE EFFORT CLEANLY, WE'LL TAKE IT
OMG... Goal stands!! I thought he was off
It does count and we're two up
COME ON.... SCORE MORE!!!
Pogba called for a foul near the United flag. Really soft
Free kick chance for Brighton
Not a good clearance
NBC wanting to make more controversy
Back to ER... MOT being blasted thru the PA system
Second half starting up - Ali is replacing Berardi who was a first half substitute himself. Interesting.
United STILL playing around at the back.... pathetic stuff!!!!
Second half underway from ER
Bob knows who went off... the two numpties on the mic don't!
Come on, you Whites!
I missed the controversy because my wife was talking to me about additional restrictions being placed by the County
They've finally twigged it
Bob should be doing the announcing on Talk Sport
Get me on Talk Sport!
That change from Bielsa sounds tactical and to add more to the attack
Well wide by Rash. That was a rash shot!
Useless effort from Rash...he's be rotten since the restart
Why do teams want to take adavantage of players allowed in box for goal kicks?
I just don't get it
BLOODY HELL
Sorry mate
Bugger! Luton have scored!
apparently a great finish
United are clueless on the outside of the box
BUGGER! HARRY CORNICK GIVES LUTON THE LEAD WITH A CURLER ON THE BREAK OFF A PASS FROM RYAN TUNNICLIFFE
It's LEEDS TIME
We need an immediate response. Come on!
Sorry, Bob.
COME ON LEEDS . TIE IT UP!
I really don't understand the play of United slowing it down and pass it around the midfield... just drives me nuts
bAMFORD WITHA SHOT OFF OF maRTIN cRAINIE FOR A CORNER
Luton will park the bus now for the final 35 minutes now.
Finally go forward with pace... Martial blows it with too wide of a touch
United are clueless after that
Mason Greenwood fouls Connolly on the break
Leeds putting on the pressure
COME ON
Oh - Harrison nearly scored there. Good save by Sluga.

Rash has a chance to take on a man one on one...pass it back
Bloody hell...double save!!
Oh - Sluga with a brilliant double-save from Kal and then Harrison.
Great save by Sluga off the free kick from Kal Phillips then ALi with the rebound into the side netting
Bruno with a free kick... doesn't beat the first man!!
HT
Happy with the score but I don't like the way we play anymore... well EVER team plays this way
United two up at the half
Luton unbeaten in five, so this was never going to be a free bee for Leeds.
It should be - the table position doesn't lie.
