No surprise to see Spurs lose their 100% record at the first hurdle. 
Oh well, Europa Cup next season.

I thought it could've gone either way tbh.
Hate OG's!
I don't think Spurs have a cat in Hell's chance of CL football next season tbh. Same 4 for the CL for me as last season.

Different times I guess.
Football has long been about money although the numbers have ratcheted up hugely.
I really love watching CL football and thoroughly enjoy the competition - not quite as much as the PL though.

Well, after 40 minutes of the 2015-16 season gone, Sunderland are, IMO, STRONG relegation candidates.

Just heard on Channel 5 that they have the Football League highlights at 9pm - I take it that everyone at the BBC eventually got fed up with it being one of the worst sports programmes ever. Pinocchio was less wooden than the presenters.

I'd just like to state for the record that Leicester City are top of the Premiership
.
I'll happily stand corrected, but I think that's the first time ever.
Edit - my son thinks we were top once when Martin O'Neill was in charge?

Spurs were really unlucky. I was at the game and they totally dominated before the goal. They were more adventurous and prepared to take risks whereas if a Utd player found himself in a promising position but without an obvious pass, he turned and played the ball backwards. Ashley Young flatters to deceive imo, runs into trouble a lot and chooses the wrong option too often. The goal deflated Spurs and allowed Utd to grow in confidence. After 10 minutes of the second half it was clear the game was going to finish 1-0.
It does seem that English refs and linesmen are as atrocious as their Scottish counterparts though.

It appears nobody can provide a decent programme about the Football League - why did nobody realise having dorky supporters in the studio wouldn't work?

Half time, Arsenal 0 West Ham 1.
Please don't do this to me, I'm following the game on the Guardian's MBM and I won't be able to stand the tension of the next 45 minutes.

Ten minutes left.
If they blow it now I'll be devastated.
