It's not just our away form. It's having had a totally inept manager for most of the season.

That didn't help either. Tony Mowbray's got a lot of work to do...

Hope you can stay up, and we can come up to join you

Where's Babybird? Is she still away? We need some magic from her...

Babybird2's online at the moment...

Where?

It's typical Swansea - grinding out another 1-0 victory like they did so often last season...

Chelsea haven't done very well...

Car Expert

I looked at her profile when you asked where she was, and it said she was looking at the forum...

Chelsea 0-3 Sunderland. I've typed that the right way round, honest...

A bad day at the office for Chelsea. Perhaps they're not quite so nailed on for the title as some thought... Arsenal are beginning to look very good : they had a fine result today...

I Sunderland

I thought you were a Scot not a Mackem, allende?

I love anybody who beats chelsea like that. Plus takes my mind off how horrendous the dons have been this season.

Fair enough. I'm quite pleased with Sunderland's win against Chelsea as well, and I'm a Smoggie. I'd been thinking you'd posted before about being either an Aberdeen fan or possibly an Inverness one, and I couldn't remember which. Thought it wasn't a good idea to say either in case I was wrong - would be a bit like someone calling me a Newcastle or Sunderland fan.

Aberdeen fan. Its ok as long as you dont say i support dundee united

I think your team will pick up. You've just had a run of difficult matches with playing both Celtic and Rangers, so you should start picking up points again.

I am here, got back to Leeds today.

Rubbish result today - but I guess Swansea away is not exactly easy....

I was pleased with the results this weekend, bar the Brighton result (I also support Arsenal and Crystal Palace), however was shocked at how badly Chelsea played today. Well done Sunderland!

*shudder*

Ah well, guess someone has to support them

I know. I wasn't originally expecting anything from the game, but I'd started to get hopeful we might hold on for a draw.

Millwall next.

Please beat Millwall. Preferably by about 10 goals to 0. Thanks.

It's a good job the're aren't any Millwall supporters on here.

I know a number of Millwall fans : they don't mind me not liking their team

It's been a good weekend for Arsenal.

It's been a fabulous weekend for Arsenal : write them off at your peril...

I'd be happy for Arsenal to win the Prem. ManU have won it too many times, I don't like Chelsea and I don't like the way Man City are throwing money around.

YAY, another win for Tranmere, out of relegation zone again. Can we escape properly ?

Poor Owls. Not looking good for them at the moment.

Sad though it is, this looks like a 10 point deduction waiting to happen...

Liverpool i just have my memories of when we were a great team, and yes please Arsenal to win the title anyone other than Man U

FA Cup replays tonight. Will all our teams make it through?...

Car Expert

I hope so... Come on you Addicks!

Come on the Os!

And Dartford...

Car Expert

Oh yes, and Dartford!

Tuesday FA Cup 1st round replays round-up
Charlton and Leyton Orient both got through after home victories against Barnet (1-0) and Dag & Red (3-2) respectively. But disappointment for Dartford as they were comfortably beaten 4-0 by Port Vale.

The other non-league sides involved didn't fare well, but there were a couple of close upsets. Cambridge United were leading 1-0 away at Huddersfield until the 91st minute, but conceded two late goals to lose 2-1. Woking were very close to beating League One leaders Brighton, only to lose on penalties after a 2-2 draw. Vauxhall Motors lost 1-0 against Hartlepool, while Fleetwood lost 2-1 at Walsall. There were also wins for Aldershot and Macclesfield.

For those who wanted to see an AFC Wimbledon-MK Dons clash, it's not going to happen now as Stevenage caused an upset after beating the MK Dons on penalties.

Car Expert

Yes the relief was quite audible

Just need to win a league match now we've seen off the lowly opposition

Oops... I should've said 2-0, not 2-1... Sounds better

Car Expert

Well done Walsall : since the weekend before last I've suddenly become much more aware of what Walsall are doing! Hope you get off the bottom of the table (but I do also hope you get nothing when you come to the Valley next month )

Good result for Charlton : we've got further in the FA Cup now than we did last year

Tonight you'll find out who your non-league opponents will be - Luton Town or Corby Town...

Car Expert

Poor performance by England against France...

Elsewhere, Luton beat Corby 4-2 in the FA Cup and will now face a trip to Charlton, while York beat Rotherham 3-0 to set up a tie with Darlington.

Car Expert

Reading drew 1-1 at Watford, while Leyton Orient came from 2-0 down to draw with Bournemouth with a last minute equaliser

Extraordinarily, there were no goalless draws in the top 5 divisions in England, in the SPL and Scottish Cup too, and the Premier divisions in NI and Wales. Today's FA Trophy action would've been included, but unfortunately Workington 0-0 Chasetown spoiled the day

Car Expert

Three weeks ago Tranmere were bottom (24th) , now after three wins they're 14th !

The fourth round draw of the Scottish Cup has been made, with Ross County and Dundee United meeting each other in a repeat of last season's final...

Meanwhile, Scottish referees will go on strike next weekend. Scotland could do with not having a weekend of games postponed, especially with the winter looming. The Scottish FA are now considering drafting in foreign referees...

Car Expert

Five wins in a row...

5 wins all season

Poor Boro. Did you like the way I dropped football into the proceedings at Harrogate?

Dear Barry - you mentioned Boro and football in the same response. Sadly at the moment they are not compatible.




(Only a joke - one of my best mates is a Boro fan. You'll be back!)

6 if you count the Carling Cup match against Chesterfield. It sounds slightly better.

I agree it's rubbish though.

1-1. But we're still second, and other results largely went our way too

Gillingham have been waiting since May 2009 for an away victory, and then two come at once
