    1p5wich losing 0-1 and Brentford top of the Championship temporarily at least
    Hoolahoops on the bench and WBA winning 3-0!?
    Edit - Leeds now winning, so take top spot.

    I seem to remember Ted McDougall "scoring" against, I think Newcastle, when their goalie cleared the ball badly straight onto Teds head and into the goal.

    "The second (Rangers goal) came from the other wing - the left - as the impressive Glenn Middleton fed Borna Barisic and his cross was tucked in beautifully by Kyle Lafferty."

    I always said he was a future star, but not the first player we've let go.
    I predict that Middleton could become a better player than either of the Murphy twins. <ok>

    The BBC website commentary described GM as "sharper than lemon sherbet" which I rather liked :)

    I just thought it was sweet that GM supplied the assist for "dumped out on the left wing on the extremely odd occasion he was selected <grr>" Lafferty.
    Double whammy Canaries stylee <ok>

    Maybe half our problems did stem from a give it to Madders philosophy last season. Mario seems to indicate it in the Pinkun. The thing I find disturbing about it is, that if this was a general feeling of the players. Vrancic said:

    “I think last season, maybe we were a little bit focused on James Maddison, who was an unbelievable player – our focus was on his moves and the things he could do with the ball,”
    “Now it’s kind of, everyone feels they need to make a contribution to the game, make runs in behind and is creating something. And that is exactly what we need. "

    The second paragraph is the desturbing one. Were Farke's instructions and tactics too Madders centric and stiffled the rest of the team? It certainly looked like that too much of the time. Hopefully a lesson learned for Farke and we won't centre our game on for example Lietner too much, so that the oppo can stop us by stopping one player.

    Bah!
