The Black Cats' double their lead, as Andy Reid sets up Fraizer Campbell and Birmingham now have a mountain to climb.
|
|
Posh get exactly what they deserve for a fine start and it's Craig Mackail-Smith who gets on the scoresheet with a slightly fortuitous header, but a goal nonetheless.
2003: Forest have started well at the City Ground, with the pacy Nathan Tyson causing Blackburn's Michel Salgado a few problems. A free-kick drops to the enormous Wes Morgan, but he lashes wide.
From we_have_chas_n_dave on 606:
"Re 1943: Stevo, I feel my username is somewhat redundant now! Any ideas on a new one?"
People...?
People...?
1958: Leeds have the ball in the Liverpool net - but it's ruled offside. Lubomir Michalik heads a corner goalwards and Jermaine Beckford flicks it over the line, with Luciano Beccio trying to apply the finishing touch - but one of the two front men is adjudged offside.
1956: Good movement from Robert Snodgrass down the Leeds' right and his inch-perfect cross finds Michael Doyle unmarked, eight yards out - only for the on-loan midfielder to head wide. Glaring.
1955: Peterborough have hit the crossbar at home against Newcastle, while West Brom have started brightly at Arsenal.
From Ted, via text on 81111: "Stevo, I'll rise to the Arsenal bait. The answer is yes, we would like to win the Carling Cup, but our main pleasure in the competition is to see what the kids can do. Does that devalue the competition overall? No. In fact, Arsenal's policy attracts interest."

Sadly for Pompey fans, this probably isn't much of a shock. Aaron Mokoena fouls Joe Anyinsah and former Leeds free-kick legend Ian Harte rifles in the penalty kick.

Jordan Henderson slams a left-foot shot into the bottom corner to give the hosts the lead at the Stadium of Light.
1948: Leeds have started in lively fashion and Robert Snodgrass sends over a cross that Diego Cavalieri catches with ease. No goals yet - anywhere.
1946: They are under way at Elland Road, and probably not far off in eight other games too. Bolton v West Ham is the only 2000 BST kick-off tonight.
1945: Bolton v West Ham line-ups:
Bolton: Jaaskelainen, Ricketts, Cahill, Knight, Samuel, Taylor, Muamba, McCann, Gardner, Kevin Davies, Klasnic.

1943: Fans of brilliant foreigners singing ridiculous lines in 1980s FA Cup final songs (isn't that all of us?) will be heartbroken tonight with the news that
tune legends Chas & Dave have split after 35 years together.
All together now: "In de Cup for Totting-ham..."
1940: Remember, remember the last time Leeds beat Liverpool at Elland Road? It's a safe bet Mark Viduka does, as the Australian unit
crashed home four goals as the hosts fought back to win a seven-goal thriller.
Settle for similar net-bulging scenes tonight.

From Jinadine on 606:
"Stevo, if by some miracle Forest make it to the final, will you get to go to Wembley? Or will the BBC force you to do the live text updates for the final instead?"
Haha. Do you think they'd let me, pal??!!

From Tomo, via text on 81111: "Need a win at Helland Road, Stevo, got a couple of fivers riding on this with two daft Leeds-based work colleagues, glad Rafa's taking it serious. Predict 70 mins and Gerrard comes on to bail us out."

1918: As usual, Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger picks a young side for the Carling Cup, featuring eight teenagers. Polish keeper Wojciech Szczesny (Ctrl C + Ctrl V job) makes his debut, while Sanchez Watt and Gilles Sunu look to impress up front. Philippe Senderos and Mikael Silvestre add some experience in defence. Chilean Gonzalo Jara makes his debut for West Brom, for whom Jerome Thomas faces his old club.
1917: Liverpool make sweeping changes - nine of them. Keeper Diego Cavalieri, central defender Sotirios Kyrgiakos, right-back Philipp Degen, left-back Andreas Dossena, Fabio Aurelio, who will play on the left of the midfield, central midfielder Jay Spearing, wingers Ryan Babel and Albert Riera as well as striker David Ngog start. Steven Gerrard and Fernando Torres are on the bench just in case they run into trouble. Leeds replace cup-tied centre-back Leigh Bromby with Lubomir Michalik as their only change from the 4-1 win over Gillingham last Saturday.
From Nick, an optimistic and not at all biased Baggies fan, via text on 81111: "I sense a cupset at the Emirates tonight Stevo."

From ShockN7 on 606:
"No lie - we need that Carling Cup... Anyway, there will be loads of goals at the Emirates later. Surely 5-0 to the Arsenal."
1912: It's very much a getting to know you evening - I'd be surprised if anyone's heard of more than 50% of the players on show this evening. The Premier League manager who picks near enough his strongest team wins Stevo's Spirit of Football Award, which doesn't actually exist. There's probably little or no need for it anyway.
1910: Lots and lots of team news on the way, but first, a confession: we can only watch Leeds v Liverpool tonight, so descriptive chat from other games might prove difficult. We will, of course, still let you know about every Carling Cup goal as they fly in. Oh God yeah.
1906: So, Arsenal fans, we start with you. Another season, another cup adventure with the kids - but where is it all heading? Are these lot going to win you the Premier League in three years' time? Or will Jack Wilshere merely be a cheap (it gets no cheaper than free) replacement for Cesc Fabregas when the captain eventually departs? Intriguing times at the Emirates.
1903: Without further ado, here's how to send your Carling Cup chat our way: via text on 81111, and through the
magic of the 606 thread
that has already been created for your pleasure.
1900: There are 20 clubs in Carling Cup third round action tonight, and you can bet your bottom dollar 19 of them would absolutely love to lift this particular piece of silverware. Hang on - Arsenal fans, should we add you to the list? It's a serious question.
