Great goal by Mcatee to level

Followed up by a cracking freekick from Doyle ..

Burnley 9 points away from promotion now. 3 wins (maximum) from their last nine games.

Burnley having their best season in decades. But they've only got Tella on loan, come the end of the season he goes back to Southampton (or else be snapped up by Tottenham to replace Kane?)

They've got the collection buckets going.

Yeah and guaranteed game time anyhow Southampton could well be heading in the opposite direction to Burnley..

Our Doyle seems to be getting on well at Sheffield United.

Why are Sunderland playing in red shorts?

It was for the Sunderland charity..the foundation of light....

"Sunderland are using the occasion to raise money for the Small Change Big Difference campaign, and showcase the work done by the charity, who help struggling families in the area.
According to studies, the North East has the highest rate of child poverty in the UK, while 40 percent of the city's residents are said to live in relative poverty, and the work Sunderland's charitable group do helps those families impacting, especially given the cost of living crisis engulfing the country."

Gutted for you about that last min pen mate

 

[Worsleyweb]

Neil Warnock may just keep Huddersfield up! He is some manager at that level.

It was a shame, alright. But it was a careless challenge, the sort that would drive a manager crazy.

A daft challenge indeed

Well done Vincent Kompany, a leader of men (even those with 6 fingers on each hand)

A goal for McAtee and an assist for Doyle in their game against Cardiff this afternoon. 2-1 for the Blades, after going behind earlier.

Brilliant cross by Tommy.

Yep. It was bang on the money. He'll certainly have a good career in the game, wherever that will be.

 

[FantasyIreland]

4-1 now to the Blades.

Lovely if they join Burnley.

Yes, I'd like to see them make it back to the Prem as well. Even though they were the red and white side of Sheffield, I felt in the 1980s that they were the city's underdog club and I had more affinity with them for that reason. Add the fact that they have two of our young players on loan this season and I'd welcome them back up.

The Blades now need 8 points from 5 remaining games even if Luton win the four matches they have left. Shouldn't be a problem, though I'd still be nervous in their position!

As for who comes up through the play-offs to join Burnley and them - please, Lord, not Millwall. And preferably not Luton, either. Even 40 years on, I'm not close to forgiving them for David Pleat dancing across the Maine Road pitch.
