I know it's not a Premiership match, but it's two Premiership teams and since BS seems to have lost the list of "current" posts on the home page, I thought I'd post this here rather than under the cup competitions board.
The match has been delayed from 7:45 start time to a 9:05 start time. It should be starting in about 10 minutes.
Anyone got it on the tele that could do a pbp on BS?

Murphy with a canon of a shot into the side netteting. AV goal keeper never moved.
Still, 0-0.
Murphy with a caution already.

We're not allowed to do audio over the net here at work during the day. I was hoping I could find a text pbp.
The BBC pbp sucks -- attacking throw in xxx, defending throw-in yyy, foul and free kick. Nothing about the play itself like UEFA.com provides for the CL matches.

Vassel scores from the spot!!
1-0, Villa.
Vassel goes center while keeper dives to a corner. No real chance.

Hendry taken down in the area.

Dublin header off a Villa corner collected by Kirkland.
Even, nip and tuck match so far.
1-1.

Hadji hits the post on a first attempt. Gets the rebound but cannot put it away.
Great chance for Villa.
Carragher on for Babbel.
He is not happy about it at all.

Any comment on why this may be? Are all these fouls on Vassel because Babbel is letting him free and then others are having to foul him to stop him?

Announcers speculate that he is not fully fit and that Hadji is abusing him a good bit.

Murphy almost puts Liverpool up with a "delicious" curling shot that would have been in had he been five yards back.
Have not heard much from Owen at all.

Sounds just like something a Brit announcer would say!
