I am here boys
Had a nice cup of coffee with Kathy on the deck this morning. I turned on the telly for the second half
We are taking Shadow to the park at some point.
I will be here when I can

Morning, Dave - that sounds really pleasant. Please give Kathy my best. Great to have you by my side for this one. I'm on pins and needles.
Got it going on my phone
COME ON LEEDS
After a win....you will be cockahoop!!
Do you have the radio going?
ooh Pickford almost does a Robinson against the US!
Test Update
Windies chasing 200 for the win.... they are 35 for 3
COME ON ENGLAND
Great fightback by England against the Windies in the test match. They've got Windies at 35 for 3 now.
You just beat me to it, mate. Well in Nocito Sportscaster!
I do indeed - thanks for the tip!
Brentford have won 7 on the trot!
I want them to overtake the Baggies!
Baggies host Fulham on Tuesday at Noon on Plus
Brentford host Preston on Wednesday at Noon on Plus
Leeds host Barnsley on Thursday at Noon on Plus
Good morning bob and Dave. Here to join you. Been watching since the last ten minutes of the half and saw both goals
Plus showing Stoke vs Brum
Who does the scheduling?
Thanks for the tip. Will be listening on TalkSport2
Morning David
Agreed Dave. A relegation six pointer is not the best choice. Brum should be safe if they win today
Much better choices by PLus Tuesday through Thursday
Minute silence for Big Jack
Morning, David - how are you, mate?
Just wide by Digne . Better from the Toffees
Nice moment of silence for Big Jack.
Wolves three up!
Dendonker adds a third goal for Wolves against a woeful Everton today.
GOAL !!!!JOTA PUTS WOLVES THREE UP
Kick-off - come on, you Leeds!
We are off
Poor keeping by Pickford as Jots as on the end of a nice long diagonal and beat Pickford at the near post
Early free kick chance for us now - come on!
Early corner to Leeds... won't matter... it will be short or won't beat the first man
And now a corner - come on!
Good start... another core
And another - let's have an early one to settle the nerves!
I finally got the match on my phone. Can listen to it when I take Sparky walkies
The score from Molineaux is not good news for United
I have a British Radio app that I listen to 5Live or Talksport but that doesn't have a link to TS2..so I also have a TS app that has 1 and 2
Wolves loss to the Blades helped United out
Swans have a shot...saved
Knock it off
Swansea getting back into this one - don't like it. Meslier smothers a shot.
Meslier makes a save from Connor Roberts
Wish Wolves would be losing to the Toffees
Gallagher has an Ayling shot deflected for a Swans corner
Swansea have a corner now - mark 'em up!
Stoke take the lead vs Brum
Thankfully nothing comes from the corner
That will give the Potters some daylight between them and the drop zone
Swansea have a free kick now - knock it off!
The second guy on the mic needs to shut up!!
Talk about the match.... we can't see it
Sam Vokes, formerly of Leeds , with the Potters goal
Good banter between the two commentators.
Traore misses a sitter!
Open goal from a cross...hits the bar and over
Oh - should have been 4-0 Wolves!
Swansea corner now - mark 'em up!
Wolves should have gone up by a Barber Shop Quartet . Jota with a run down the left and passed to Adama Traore who hit the bar from three yards out from a wide open goal
See... this guy is yapping away and has to be interrupted for a Swans attack
Doesn't stop him!
Kal Phillips clears for a corner and Meslier punches away the corner from Matt Grimes then cleared away
Nice work from Meslier - I've been quite happy with him. I wouldn't mind seeing us flog Kiko over the summer.
Why is Cassila suspended
Not sure why he would be suspended. Agreed about Casilla. Came from Real and has been inconsistent
We're playing too much long ball stuff - we need to play the Bielsa Way!
A Barber Shop Quartet of stoppage time minutes from Molineaux
A big day for Bob and Steve. Bob with this match between two teams looking to be promoted and Steve with the North London Derby
Phew! I'm having kittens every time Swansea attack. Really scary listening to this on the radio.
Isn't this guy yapping too much?
He never shuts up
Leeds need to just weather this storm
Leeds corner now - come on!
Leeds win their first corner of the match
Corner is off Ayling and wide
Too many low, flat corners from Kal, sadly. He's got to switch it up.
Wolves win 3-0 and that's the cue for me to take Sparky for walkies. Will be listening to the match
Yikes...Swans trying to do the double over Leeds for the first time!
Wolves win 3-0
Leeds had two early corners
And another corner now - let's make something of it!
Wolves still 3 points behind United
This has been really competitive - not a lot in it. We're definitely not dominating, as we have been recently.
Oh - Dallas with a deflected shot that's pushed away by the keeper Woodman.
Swansea has a free kick now - mark 'em up!
Matty Klich picks up a yellow card for a silly foul.
Oh - Patrick had a big chance there but he hits the keeper Woodman with his shot.
Bamford with a chance... bugger
SHUT THIS GUY UP!
I miss the days there was one guy and the other would speak once ever 15 minutes
Bit of argy bargy now and Fulton is booked for Swansea.
It is radio commentary, Dave. They need to paint the picture, right?
Chris Iwelumo is trying to advocate for a Swansea. Shut it!
I'm off for walkies... Shad is very persistent
COME ON LEEDS
Take a late lead at half...just like the last match!
Yes Bob but this guy is yapping... they need to describe
I'm off
Into stoppage time now.
Late free kick for Swansea now - mark 'em up!
Back from walkies and and it's 0-0 at the half.
Half-time at the Liberty - 0-0.
We'll need better effort in the second half.
This would be a decent result as it's away to a promotion chasing side.
Five minutes into Villa vs Palace and 0-0. Must win for Villa or else they're all but down
GOAL PALACE HEAD THEIR WAY TO A LEAD OFF A CORNER
VAR checking for hand ball.
It came off of Sako's shoulder which means the goal should stand. No it doesn't poor decision from VAR
Back from walkies and feeding the pets. Second half underway from the Liberty
Back for the second half with the official brekkies of the LOB - bagel and cuppa.
Ali and Pablo have come on for Stu Dallas and Tyler.
Free kick to Villa in a promising position. Free kick from El Gazi harmlessly to the keeper
Former Swan, Neil Taylor, down for Villa
Drinkies and 0-0 at Villa Park
Hand bags between Tyrone Mings and Zaha
It ends immediately with Martin Atkinson calling over Mings
Both players booked
Potters still two up vs Brum
Phew! Meslier with a great save tipping over for Connor Gallagher.
sakho now booked as well
We're a bit under the cosh right now.
Would love to see Pablo do his old side over today. Come on!
That would be great even though a draw is a decent result as this is Leeds's last match against a side in the top half of the table
Corner now for Swansea - end to end stuff now.
Mark 'em up!
Jake Bidwell wins a Swans corner off of Helder Costa
Bielsa getting verbal on the touchline and being warned about that. It's a stressful time of the season
The ref's trying to calm down Marcelo now. I'm sure he's up and down off the bucket now.
I agree, mate - I won't be greedy. A point here and we just need two wins against Barnsley and Derby to wrap it up.
Baggies vs Cottagers will be a big match. Do you want a draw or a Cottagers win?
Fulton and Pablo are involved now - could be some trouble.
Fulton should have got a second yellow there - would have been a real advantage for us.
Hand bags between Hernandez and Jay Fulton. Just a lecture for both
Probably a draw is the best result there.
Dean Smith with an early tactical change as his Targett is a Villa victory and Neil Taylor is subbed
I am back from walkies
IT'S LEEDS TIME!!
A volley from Jack Grealish is turned around by Hennessey
Welcome back, Dave
BOODY HELL...I THOUGHT IT WAS IN!!
Oh - the biggest chance of the match so far. Pablo finds Jack with a brilliant cross field ball and he finds Patrick in the middle. Saved by Woodman.
OH!!!! Nice cross from Hernandez met with a header from Bamford and forces a superb save from Ben Woodman
Cheers, mate - we need all the mojo that we can get.
Nice double save by Pepe Reina to keep it 0-0 at Villa Park
Exactly....SHOOT!
Not the modern way
Chris Iwelumo is thinking like Dave - Leeds players need to shoot on sight!
Zaha with a shot straight to Pepe Reina
Chris needs to stop gabbing... the commentator had to apologize for interrupting him.... because there was ACTION
DRINKIES
Drinks break - I need to towel off here. Very nervous.
Drinkies at the Liberty
We ARE going to get TWO wins this week for Uniteds
West Indies 96 for 3. England need to start taking some wickets
Golf coming up on this channel after this match - not sticking around for that. I'd rather listen to the birds in the backyard.
Sounds like the test match has swung back in the Windies' favor.
Play resumes at the Liberty
A quintet of stoppage time minutes at Villa Park, primarily due to a lengthy VAR check
There's the North London Derby later this morning
Patrick Bamford has scored in the last three matches for us. Just saying....
This would be a perfect time to make it four in a row
Villa take the lead!
Villa have taken the lead against Palace. Could be a vital goal for them.
GOAL !!!TREZEGUET GIVES vILLA A PRICELESS LEAD
Free kick from Connor Hourihane headed on and Trezeguet scored with a great finish at the far post
Jack Harrison harshly booked for a challenge on Connor Roberts
PVA down for Palace as a marathon first half at Villa Park has yet to end

COME ON YOU SLATE GRAY!!!
wayne Routledge on for the Swans . He scored the winner at ER. Not today
Pablo finds Jack Harrison in the area but he blasts over. Bielsa not a happy camper. He might get the hook soon enough.
Not a lot of time left. This could still go either way. I'm nervous.
Cheers, mate - we need it.
Very tense .
BLOW UP REF!

FANTASTIC!!!!!!!!!
YESSSSSSSSSS!!!!PABLO HERNANDEZ GIVES LEEDS A LATE LEAD ON HIS RETURN TO THE LIBERTY WITH A SHOT OFF THE INSIDE OF THE POST AFTER AN AYLING CROSS WAS CLEARED
I cannot believe I celebrated so much for a Leeds goal!!!
You must be special Bob!!
Leeds three points clear of the Baggies
Two minutes left - hang in there!
This would mean 4 points at most needed
5 added minutes
COME ON LEEDS
A triple substitution by Sans manager, Steve Cooper. A quintet of stoppage time minutes
That's Pablo's eighth goal of the campaign and by far the most crucial.
A number of subs now for Swansea as they try to rescue this one.
Heading into stoppage time now.
Jamie Shackleton on to bolt the door for the last few minutes. Header coming off.
Jamie Shackleton on for Helder Costa
We're almost there - hang on!
Now the Swans keeper Woodman is having a problem and is going to need to come off.
A change from Uncle Woy as McCarthy is on. Not sure who he's replacing
All this will add more time.... stop the clock!
Second half underway from Villa Park.
Grrrr - they're stretching this out life salt water taffy. I just want the final whistle and to head for the shower.

McArthur
Pen for Villa
Bit of a dive there... I hate that crap
PENALTY TO VILLA STRAIGHT FROM THE KICkOFF . PVA CALLED FOR A TRIP ON JACK GREALISH WHO MADE A MEAL OF IT. VAR TO CHECK
I hate that they say there was contact...
VAR should change this and book Grealish
I can't believe that we're still playing (or not playing). Get on with it!
It's taking bloody forever
Another wicket in the cricket!
No Pen... good
They should book Grealish
Bloody hell - corner for Swansea. I'm nervous.
VAR says no penalty. The right decision . Grealish should have been booked
BLOW UP REF!
YES!!!!!
CONGRATS MATE!!!
YESSSSSSSSSSSS!!!! LEEDS WIN 0-1 AT THE LIBERTY.'
CONGRATULATIONS, BOB. FOUR POINTS NEEDED
YESSSSS!!!!
We've done it again. Fourth win on the trot and we inch ever so much closer to promotion. Now it's just four points from three matches. We can do this!
FOUR POINTS AWAY
Connor Hourihane to take a Villa free kick and he takes it directly and it's well turned around by Pepe Reina
