Was half watching the Owls game today and have to confess it took ten minutes for me to twig that Sheffield Wednesday were in the black shirts!

It's the second away kit Bang and yes it does seem an odd choice of colours for Sheffield Wednesday who have always played in blue. Was delighted with the performance and result today every player really up for it, when they're on their game they can match most teams in the division a pity our centre forward Fletcher was missing today he had to go back home for family reasons I really would have fancied him scoring today.

Who did he argue with then? Himself?

Had to laugh at Wednesday winger Rod Wallace today, soon after Wednesday had gone one up the Huddersfield manager after scribbling secret team instructions onto a piece of notepaper had it handed around all his players to read when suddenly Wallace grabbed it and starting reading it for a joke.

Here's an edited down clip of the incident, we need more fun like this in the game in my view.

What do people think of the 3 hour European show on a Sunday night?

Is that too long so they have to pad it out with features and adverts or a suitable length of time?

Guess with the amount Danny Kelly talks he can fill those 3 hours pretty quickly!

We did have the usual "Premier league is much more competitive than any other" debate after the top Spanish teams won easily...(he did point out that Bournemouth also won very comfortably!) but we a rule its fairly informative and one of the better programmes on TS.

Ray - "Who would you choose, Jose or Klopp?"
Alan - "I'm a Jose man, myself"
Ray - "Because you've done an interview with him?"

Pretty much.

I'm sure it will suit some people but listening to a 3 hour show on talkSPORT hosted by Danny Kelly talking about European football interspersed with carpet bombing inane adverts, reproduced BBC/SKY news copied bullitins and Abrahams telling us during the premier league sport updates West Ham have just signed a reserve team full back is not for me I'd sooner hear the BBC shipping forecasts.

Dear oh dear Alan.

Myself I quite enjoy it-especially when Im waiting half an hour for a bus home.

Didn't catch who the reserve full back was. Anybody know?

Talksport very predictable this morning.
Alan arrives with croaky voice which he says he got from shouting the horses home.
In other words to much free booze and drunken bawling..

Alan says "I agree absolutely with Josay, I'm 100% behind him" (Quelle surprise)

Lots of silence regarding a certain team who move joint top of the Prem.

Ray , who seems a pleasant young man, with his continual waffling about the blatantly obvious but saying nothing incisive or informative.

All in all, another Bad Day at Black Rock.

Goodnight Vienna.

I urge you mate to try the shipping forecasts while your standing about waiting for busses they're a gripping listen and so handy if your about to set sail fishing on a deep sea trawler like many of us often do most weeks.

Bet Beeky is still on speed dial from all the times he stood in for Big Al.I worried for old Porky's heart being left on his own,was that a first.I'm suprised he didn't just take up the whole time singing and chanting Lu-Lu-Lukaku.

Anybody know what was said in parliament today about Neil Warnock?
H&J mentioned something was said under parliamentary privilege but didn't say what it was.

Seems Colin Warnock got a mention in Parliament today during the questioning of Greg Clarke, FA chairman. Seems Jason Puncheon had some choice words to say about him. I guess we'll have to look at hansard to get the gist of it as it sounds libellous and was said under parliamentary privilege.

The Warnock story is old news really, it refers to tweets from Jason Puncheon in January 2014 and I remember it made headlines at the time. The press are freely reporting the contents of the tweets today now that there is Parliamentary privilege. Warnock is understandably a bit miffed.

So despite the hype hype hype over the past few days on TS, one of the worst games of football tonight so far in the PL.

The whole thing a fantastic showcase in time filling....and that's without the papers bigging the match up as well.....

Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

Never thought I'd see the day when a Walsall player would present a talkSPORT show; but at the moment I'm listening to the repeat of talkSPORT 2's Sky Bet EFL Review, which our on-loan left-back Scott Laird co-hosted with Ian Abrahams. Scott sounds like an intelligent and eloquent pundit and, having already caught the tail end of the original airing, it sounds like he impressed Moose who said he'd get him back on in a few weeks time. Go on Lairdy!

It was a typical Jose Mourinho set up away from home.

Play for a point - guess Man U fans won't mind that happening once in a while but they won't accept settling for a draw in every away match against a top side..

(Well they lost us... and dropped points against Stoke too)

Alan not in again, poor soul.....

He can pick and choose when to have off knowing 100% they won't discipline him no wonder he keeps working there now into his middle 50's he's got the best job in the world on a £350,000 yearly contract whether he turns up or not and he's laughing all the way to the bank.

Is he not contracted on a no show no dough basis?

Good as ever to hear the completely unbiased views of Micky Quinn this morning:

- not being able to look beyond Liverpool for analysis of last night's game.
- "Norwich might be top at the moment but I expect Newcastle to win the league"
- "Sunderland can't keep flirting with relegation every season"... despite the fact that Newcastle have actually been relegated twice in the past few years whereas Sunderland haven't

Higginbotham showed him up with some thoughtful analysis yet it was dismissed by him as being "defensive union sticking together" Under Quinn's logic - no non-attacking minded player could ever be named man of the match.

Marnin' Bangers!
Some posters have decided that he is, I see it differently and think he's paid a yearly contract of £350,000 whether he turns up or not, I guess none of us know the reality.

Alan at the doctors this morning ...

LOL!
You is naughty man Billy!
As for Brazil, I would be amazed if he hasn't set up a company and gets paid through that. Can't see him turning down the chance to be creative with the tax.

This is what I mean mate Brazil has them by the skin of their b@11$ at that place they'll do anythging to keep him there could you really see him negotiating himself a contract where he wouldn''t get paid when he's off knowing himself how much time he likes off?, ... I couldn't.
