In the man who's currently playing in form in the advance line and they're all playing behind slot time slot on this afternoon has the potential to become the highest goal scorer in the top 5 leagues in Europe in the calendar year we need to overtake Leonor Messi into the Championship and we're going to think it's fair to say he could desperately do will appoint. Darby won't be easy. Or enjoys has made one change this afternoon with Matilda Sean McDonald shaking off a thigh strain he takes the place of striking Craig Davis he drops to the bench the Latics will line up with goal back full of Kellett burn to Buxton and warm up the last 2 former Darby players as is Michael Jacobs he joins McDonald Gomes power and built in midfield Well Greg looking for his 1st goal since September is expected to play a solo role front the rest of the benches lover come Nathan Burn The Floor is Burke and Berrigan Darby also make one change a catchy and you know replaces the injured left back Marcus Olsen into a no doubt about much of the day. And 3rd against top of the. Market try to meet its 1st this is very much a case of if it ain't broke don't fix it for wonders they're on the best run of home form since 9959 wins on the bounce now and Phil Parkinson hasn't doubled or taunts and changed his team making goal for solid back 4 of Florrie Wilson Mark. And Andy Taylor chase spirit and Tom thought as the holding midfield in the lovely triumvirate of play is something I mean. Club with Gary Medina is the target man on the bench they turn to Dean Moxey Chris Taylor cash Anderson Derek Clayton and Henry it's all very solid It's all very predictable but can go top as we go into 2017 updates from 3 pm. To Rochdale. 10 home league wins on the spin to go to Keith Hill What a way to go out of 2016 you have a choice of common trees from here far one in the south the noon or 95 point one f.m. It's old I'm on the road to Fleetwood Oldham rock bottom as we speak and they desperately need to start in some points together you have for much common true with Steve alongside the man who brings his team news Ben Crouch are there without a win since the 18th of October slavery was in desperate need of those 3 points today as you say but it's a golden off the field of League One of how to even to safeguard its future just one change though to the team that put up a fight at all to merely loss to Sheffield united on Boxing Day Cameron Burgess coming in for the injured Charles Douglas 23 that same then cut a replay in goal back 3 of Burgess Peter Clarke and Bryan Wilson with Don McKinnon Ryan McLaughlin the wingback Josh law holding him in midfield Ron Flynn and Paul Green supporting McCoy and Doris I see up front your alternative commentary on our d.a.p.

And ask for the low point for the 1st half of the season for football club it's been a disaster right from the off so that's mine top and bottom yours please all 16122 a double to double 5 and if you draw the Texan talk send in fired off text 813 double 3 Start your message with me and see. The credit and if you just want to talk football Steve where the former Rochdale manager he's with Bonecrusher for the old and game of Fleetwood I'm happy to talk football with you right here right now let's catch up though with the Barry news his mother knew some well Chris brass dispersed point as manager of Barry in the game against Fleetwood on Boxing Day and he's kept faith with the same 11 acquired that 1st point and ended a 12 match losing run as well there are a couple of changes on the bench though incomes Jacob Mehlis soldiers search aims born and the money drops out down the mayor so it's late in in gold league Betto k. And soars across the back for the 2 new styles and Burgess in midfield Hallam hope George Miller and Tom Pope up front on the bench Williams born certainly malice Walker and Tony it's going to be a tough task to get something out Bradford today there in payment for their own pain about the parade all season but with that point on the board Barry might just have a little bit of festive cheer on the a.p. 3 o'clock here about the great host listening to Liam in the preview programme on b.b.c. Radio Manchester between 6 and 7 last night I was out driving with my son Joe listening to the football preview and asked to say Chris Brus was decidedly bullish about the prospects for the New Year Marbury perspective I hope he's right I hope it works out really well for him right we're talking football any football related topic that you like but it is the last day or 2016 so when you cast your football he's back on the year that we've just enjoyed already even enjoyed what would be your high point or your low point it can be from your personal perspective what was the high point or the low point for your club as well and you can phone as a No 161228 double 2 double 5 you can text 813 double 3 if you are texting start your message with m. E. And c. And to put your name so he can give you the credit if you want to use social media or your Twitter or your Facebook happy to accommodate all you got to do is search for a b.b.c. Manc. You could even do e-mail to man just a sports a b b c dot co to. Stab you 3 and the police official yourself off the facilities right let's have a quick word now the former manager form a city youth coach and former 1st team coach who does feel and he's done is going to be unlike studies Fred there we've done everything you can do in football he of course is stay very good afternoon chief Steve afternoon to me Ok I am a challenge listening to great interest or heard you talking psyllium about local clubs last night let's start with a bright spot. And 10 home wins on the bounce. Stephen that it is yeah and we should congratulate it but not be surprised by I mean I know there's been a lot said about losing the type of. Tension about the weight and things like that Mr Don't be said in the summer of the 1st interview for radio Manchester you sick about himself and he wants to have a right go and certainly we know what the manager is all about and how we operate in this division and now these young players are following suit it seems I did mention in commentary about last night still young team and you could cluster kids want to pull their actual young men growing up together now and once you get to a certain amount of games and experience to. Go and you've got these young men they're absolutely fearless half a dozen of them at least an obviously as you quite rightly mention each week you know what they would tell us money and Henderson coming back to form it's good times article with when I said to you hadn't. Scored 3 in 2 games since I think yeah you can often wish to have got to about as a forward playing in a left wing slot if you like yesterday you should've been one nil down Rochdale for a great say from Conrad Logan and 10 seconds later in Henderson has gone through from the halfway line I thought he was just about to tech it really clearly he knows what you do it in a situation it wants to ball left before it was always going into the bottom corner and I thought you know to. School surely and again he would possibly go on to score 2 again it wasn't for him but it was for others I know that you were listening to the Chris brass interview last night he did sound quite bullish about the prospects of getting a couple of new faces in stave So you know so we should be because you know he's got an opportunity to money a very good football club with good facilities and infrastructure and ambitious chairman good supporters and they're underachieving over the last 13 games you know become possibly one of the 13 games like they have done that's not possible they've not been good they've not been looking I'm expecting to go down looking through January and February now I think it's their turn in time they've got young players in the squad it might be better that is working with the smaller numbers but at least a squat in itself of 10 or 11 not playing through injury but sometimes that can bring a group of footballers together and if it's just on one performance in a clean sheet in a point against Fleetwood hopefully they can move forward from that and be better for the next 12 or 13 games as opposed to what they've been the last Well what's interesting I heard you say that about galvanizing a small group if you ally that to the facts Dave yes I get a smaller group of players it's not your choice necessarily but that small group means you do get an intense camaraderie build but that group of players who went out in front of those Barry a couple of weeks ago when you look at tortillas. And Craig Jones was well I think you think I'm God even if you can galvanize a small group and then start to drip feed this quality back in then you have got to show I think yes and equally with those small numbers by choice and team and really devoted to you know young players in some teenagers. Really refreshing for everybody the supporters particularly when a young player goes in regardless of all the ref Logies we're civil wants to go in and cope but it's even better and you know though. They look like they can stay around the team in the squad for you know forever as long as you know the repairing now they look like they can cope they'll be a time where they might need to come out but I think Chris will have the experience to bring them out at the right time should we need to and as you quite rightly say there's 10 or 11 senior players ready to come back any time and if they come back you know even if even in like half of them come back then that we can have much stronger position if you want to talk about the best or worst moments for your club or for you as a football fan from 2016 you're more than welcome to join Steve right here on b.b.c. Radio man to pick up a phone fire off a text send us a tweet but your best and worst moments of 2016 and joining is now he's got a pretty big choice to go I would have thought Phil Seligmann you said that he found of this party Good afternoon. Jimmy said no to stave and. Yes I Ok yeah I knew. That moment going to be. Followed by the worst moment. Really there has been a bit farm in our face so far and it felt pretty awful. Me. Talking about getting a new manager in and so I did. It Because I'm a. Christian kid. Shouldn't take over one and then they lost the next game or the Fleetwood game. It's not it's not great but I'm hoping now I'm a little good we've got reasonable squad things he said before surely we can't have a repeat of the last game again. We were so Barry a couple of weeks ago our son makes the stave and he just put it out and 2 rows in front of us where the players who were injured sit for the game fill and you were looking at people like Craig Jones lie under the top Zelie smelly think you don't go get econo you come and visit Jim losing 12 games on the spin with all the resources for him fired it yes if we get him all that I mean down terrible with sending wrong. I'm talking. We just finished a game 11 Man Fleetwood and only 2 blocking They create your own room and are doubtless eaten. That will be making Cameron season. Out to black players really. Good put a big on the club how do you play by it when we haven't got the money to just gotten a chance to market like the big clubs come if you know if you heard it Phil Chris brass talking on b.b.c. Radio Manchester last night was saying they've already identified the pople players that they want to bring in and I think you also said Steve correct me if I'm wrong that they could be a couple of out go into as well though. Yeah to get rid of them do you think they could create the from to bring in. So Jimi you said the professor you going to have to lose a couple of players to free up the forms to bring new faces in so. You're going to bring you can't just keep our didn't add into the wage bill for. The bottom end as well yeah I'm not quite sure what manager or chairman or such a supporter of. A reasonable way to see my of just played in 12 straight defeats so I'm not suggesting it would be easy to. Open also forgetting that the footballer might not want to leave him out of the northwest it might check him out of a comfort zone with his family so getting them out there in. Challenges. As a Barry fan the star of the series that the low point the rest of the season you can drift a 1612 to double to just go into a. Waiting game and just travel back thanks Jamie and that we have seen that there is lots of football traffic out there on the road for us with our games for. It and Bolton today and it's looking like it's already probably the most of the tribute that we're saying there is wasn't only a broken down vehicle on clockwise side of the m 60 between the Carrington and 9th traffic park and it's still causing to be jested going back on that quiet side towards Stratford also and combined with that football traffic that's quite busy but it's looking heavier around shopping centers and anywhere where the stores people can last last bits and bobs for New Year's preparations particularly looking heavy on the a 6. Open street and street on the southbound side on the northbound side is the rising sun and that one to account for the 3 Manchester and in terms of public transport we're doing fine on that much more to the trains of trams at the moment but there is a loss of engineering work of this bank holiday weekend and wants to go out for plenty of replacement bus services just to to mention. And also. Between. That convention airing works until the 2nd of January and like I said it's plenty more than that so just checking if. You've got a day me. 161-9936 means easy with General Jackson b.b.c. Radio Manchester close I'll be playing some of the songs from the 1st 67 days in 2000 songs in.

Where our clubs are in their respective divisions by the nature just at this Texas madam is an old and funny goes best moment Sheridan's return and survival worst moment the rest of 2016 to see what's happening olden time for Conan Robinson both to go it could be the end of Robinson if we lose today so a fairly gloomy prognosis from Adam the old and fun if your joy didn't phone as 161228 double to double 5 if you'd rather text and talk text number 8 on 3 double 3 Start your message with a and c. The new message and then your name so we can give you the credit and if you're a social media person search for the b.b.c. Sports Good afternoon to you Sean Going to me how we. Set low to stave as well. I shan't. Go on as awake and found the best the worst. Of all it's a complete contrast in emotions to be celebrated when in promotion back to the championship good luck to him I was a day where we thought we were on top of the world and. When we finally got back to the championship that we could get well and compete well I think the worst moment was to be sucking of Garrett Caldwell and also I think it was very hasty by the club. Since Warren judge took over we've. Got. To say Gary Caldwell called like dude got promotion and such fantastic season last year sucked so early in the season it was really really disappoints and Steve pick you know for what Shawn just said when the new money to comes in they tends to be a reaction sometimes it can be very short term as players vie to make that impression on the new governor or you will be concerned that once had so little impact in the 1st 8 games yes I think so in all fairness because I think the change in style I think is a word that's crept into football in recent seasons Palazzo for I don't want using it myself I hear it and cringe but it's been used to much pull we can certainly have something but it was always going to be more difficult going back into the Championship and in its 1st season but they're probably accepting it would be in the bottom middle of it I don't think expected to be in the relegation slots but there's been a you know a different style of play for sure a different set up. A lot of talk about them you know want to be in a fitness fanatic I don't believe that Christmas I don't believe players can get much better do believe Warren can get players fit the way he the way he. Did at Manchester United for sure they were very fit to motivate but senior players as he took the job in. December I don't believe you can get a much better job the impact has to be made tactically to be made to my money gene and obviously it will be hoped to be made in the January transfer window but one thing that is obviously disappointing is. The recent results I was at the Hold a spill game where they played on the counterattack in what is quite a smash and grab but we had a bit of defending to do but but one and I thought we could go on from that as well as a clean sheet of pounds the ball up to now they haven't obviously they're not out of the game they're not out of time but in terms of 2nd foundations that hasn't happened but we maybe see your couple of faces in January and the changing fortunes hopefully shown how optimistic are you about survival in the championship. Only on the side he felt very optimistic about to make. The cut which was very dark I was always confident which they can we didn't earlier this year when we couldn't . Carry Caldwell I was more than confident that was jailed just just watching our performances in recent weeks and not have been the real deal the green and we we haven't played well not quite heavily on the warm George but equally we don't seem to move forward since the shotgun recalled Well you mentioned the new money reaction that you seem to get we have no reaction whatsoever with one windy night games and. So if I'm not confident maybe. Changes for a couple signings could do some world accountable I'm not sure that we've got the money of time so it's. Time for them and. Shown if you look at the gloomiest prognosis and you find yourself back in a.f.l. One what would be the significance of that for the club would represent it would feel like a disaster but would it necessarily be one probably not think. Of the vision. I'm not sure though when you look at when you look at the club itself we spent nearly a decade in that league in the ninety's and the early 2000 if it wasn't for the if we lose millions would have never reached the Premier League but nonetheless I think after doing so well last season it would be disappointing to return there immediately because you look at clubs like Barnsley and some that spent a lot less than we did in the summer doing the doing relatively well compared to ourselves so although it wouldn't be an absolute disaster for the club I imagine the club would survive it would be disappointing nonetheless and the worrying thing is we wouldn't have the parachute payments that we had last time to give us the financial advantage to really touch promotion again next season if we did go down so I'm just hoping that we turn about in fortunes pretty soon I hope you get Young good to see some things you might see in 2070. Shaun lives there we can find out this Polish So we're looking for your best and worst moments of 2016 if you want to spend now of it into your forecasts prognoses if you will for the coming year that's absolutely fine with me 161228 double to double 5. Heard you talking last night about Oldham as well and. I've met Steve Robinson he came in and did the Monday Night Football hour and he did the interview would you sell for me one of the game think you've been buried he's a real bubbly character and he would have been very positive last night but I always feel that if you are in trouble this is the time of year when boards get a bit nervous and start getting a bit jumpy about whether it's time to change something in the hope they can pull out of the fire but you need something to go his way and soon don't you think yes the stats don't read well you're right everything you said about character was about him a couple of times this week and you've got that absolutely spot on and it's full of beans and it's positive but obviously the stats which he didn't shy away from either by the way. You know he's is there for a result to say and we're disappointed and we share Oldham's pain and it's been actually a bit too often in recent weeks port the reason why it's a little bit you know trigger happy if you like for chairmans and boards around general is twofold these days to me it's obviously the turning point like it's always been the 2nd round of games the halfway point. It's the same weeks in calendar month but it didn't seem to go quicker. And then obviously you've got the January transfer window now which means you've got a chance to try and reshape your team and it's whether they want to trust the manager you gave you some recruitment to to to have another go through the season I says I sincerely hope you do old and so thoughts please and only football topic going to talk to Nic. Fans who will have a lot of good moments you've got to think before that though it's not everybody's cup but say to start live on the b.b.c. You still might have a football point to make well these days we live in a world of texting and social media so if that's how you want to make your point get it made. Happy to read out any comments that you care to make Ok just a couple for the time being Jenny's been in touch and she said the worst moment for Poland is being in 10 minutes from going out on business and business sorry and then. Relegated by March the best was but being saved and being in the top 3 now Spanish Dale says My best moment was when one great person Martin Armitage sent me a person personal for much they all call Mason says Barry fan no best moments with the last 3 games. Chris show says the best moment was Ryan was last game for Barry in the West is losing all 3 local Dobbies and last one for now Jimmie is a Lee Anderson is as the best was winning the League Cup in the West it was a losing 13 I'm Celeste He's a safety so if you wanna get in touch give us a call I want 61228 double to double 5 or you can send us a text start it with that's 28133 cynic. So while you've had all these Betty fans and older fans be wailing. About you've been so the cigar are going straight. No squash of wine and. You know. Something coming up but a fantastic. One of my. Whereabouts. Not only winning the winning where you were winning on the way replying. At the moment. I know you're in favor of being down if you. Require. You know a really good standard Well I'll bring Stephen at this point yeah there are a 30 watchable football side Stevo Iraq style. To me to change the part for the sensor are shipped in the goalkeeper twice I think we've changed now Joe please been a revelation of Rafa to 7 and every time he plays it right back so the pot luck to sell puts the midfield 3 in the front 3 there were 6 positions there were about 9. Players can play and the thing is you know there's no passengers they all contribute they all look like they can score a goal the role fit they're all quick and hungry and you can see. For the success of why they've been so good. For so long now so. Go on sort of. The one. Really and. Yes. Even quicker I think. Yeah I think absolutely right if I could just slightly just go again just. Last night so there's another one who's not in at the moment I don't think he's got quicker feet I don't know what Democrats I don't think many people have that he's the best asset but I do think he's got lots of. Bone I don't think I mean initially I don't think he thought it was right that it was just a slow burner but only for 2 or 3 games and then he's just grown each game now he's absolutely a bit like candy Cannon he's got the heart of a lion it looks like you could run a marathon within a football match if you allowed him to he wants to run from midfield into the box to score a goal and he tackles like a hard man despite looking like a schoolboy so. Only experienced a really really good club and he's named in the paper by scoring important goals but he's all round plays is improving because the so dominant in games to go we scoring games on the off and winning games or primitive field player in the middle of the picture likely to be at the center of all the action he's playing really well that was understandably a very happy bunnies a. Homely is on the spent looking for your best and worst football moments of the year 20160161228 double to double 5 from 3 o'clock you've got a choice of a half. One common trait you can have.

Chester The Right Reverend David Walker he talks to me about the news which has affected him over the last year the hardest story because he has kept coming back in different forms through the course of has been a combination of war and terror wrecks it people want to believe that the European Union has cost them a fortune they want to believe and so they go with so-called hype and his responsibilities for 2017 I think it is up to all of us and perhaps as a religious leader as a responsibility for me in particular that we need to listen to what's in people's hearts. New Year's Day from 6 b.b.c. Radio Manchester. B.b.c. Radio. I've never got used. To buy whatever that comes I'm going to talk to the city from in a couple of minutes book 1st up bad for more support told them how they're now Bev I've got to introduce a Subaru while you know we know we put in. Well we know you know what not to do we think today I'm not going to be pretty one. 0 absolutely I think certain parts I mean I'm not going to play finance you all I want to go. Obviously this is a certain point so we're going to they're going to be part they are. Going to win our. Day we're going around and we're going to be you know what it's going to be upset around because you know we don't think you know you know. It's going to be going to be a bit of a. You know between the no. Wild Duck to Mr Morris the reason you think this turnaround is coming oh well the thing is yeah I mean obviously I've been. A long time gone and and always I don't. We know it's not get rid of him no no no it's a great guy you got a chance to see them there were people you know we got nobody nobody in we are by only and what was left I don't mean not just but we couldn't go places but problems people get to yell together and you know the money you know. I mean we didn't think about that much because I think you really nice guy and I think you got. Nice fellows you know what football's like Bev It doesn't always count for much does it I know I understand not but I don't know if you feel the sound they're going to be back in the New Year slogan I really do and I just think we've got all these people who know not only being going with him and going along with that was saying a lot of good sounding about. The longest serving things in the 1st. Number gone no never gone down but if you know that we do in full much commentary on the game from 3 a but Steve. Everything's old we're going to win 3 while. We are both think the play when I went to watch them we have always played with the minutes that they didn't like. To tell you what state you are in for the 33. Definitely. Maybe 2nd go on to defend in maybe a couple of say some kind of replay and then see the game. With a clean sheet and 3 point. One percent in like you to me 3 want if that's the case . With the full. Effect on that don't we stay today. We're going to move on to talk to reg. Both Steve and I hope you're right on the money with that prediction. I rate higher if I don't to make. Yet. Right. Well highlights I think obviously the Barcelona game you could be really yeah it wasn't just the result it was the emphatic nature that they are is well every time we look at the 2nd are that here we just look pliable and I would say probably at the same that we can tame our. One of the last one a great guy but even still that wasn't and I try to remember and definitely sticks out in the the memory on God's great job you know approach over the Barcelona victory Oh definitely yeah well you know that. Just makes a little while that will. Hold a low point well I think for me and I've already somebody mentioned that they say again trustable is the to use if they. Really in the spring time and again the manner about this I think. Popped open goal twice and the defending was non-existent and that was a must win game as well from memory was a pivotal point and if we'd won now then you know we wouldn't spend it that title chances and you know when we mark on our own ourselves so that was bad and then obviously couple of weeks ago I was well. I'm out of the state I was awful so I was up a little to no one for me as well was walking back I went to Glasgow away and it wasn't necessarily the result that was bad but I have never seen rain like that in my life and as a welcome back to the into the town from them on the ground even tell you how we were just entre when there was a poster of a taxi inside cook any of the pope's because the sequel is on yeah that was a lie. Yeah but Rachel just think if you were a football fan in Scotland now Kosovo could be reading just today. Goals to one so now halfway through a season. Play with a guy and. Ridiculous it's hard to get fired up about. The Scottish Premier League Stephen at the moment yeah I think so. I mean at the all the worrying list players going over there that we're still you know at the top of the game there was a spell where and you made your own choice you write your English team in your Scottish seem to follow what. Is that is that it struggling a little bit and all the obviously there's been an open game today at Celtic of will now and people are interested to know who won and that's about it really used to be far better Yeah I do up one slight thing about Scottish football I've always wanted to go and watch the Highland League and input particular I want to go to a game between Bucky Thistle and ember Rory locos just because a lot of both of those names the 30 minute get it you know if you if you bring with you that there won't be and it won't be answering the phone or. Be a bit of an adventure. Team called ember already locos against bookie this and Steve let me know it goes what if I don't cover Jim are you and dad can go let me. Tell you Double Bubble time when the 3 o'clock games are finished we'll have about 25 minutes till the start of the City game at Liverpool and so further 25000000000 She will have access to chew generations of the farmer Stephen has been watching or will have watched. And he's doubt he'll be cranky not getting ready to bring you full much commentary of Manchester City's trip to Liverpool just while we're on the topic of Steve Pep Guardiola set the bar very high for himself this week apparently said that there's no there's no. Margin for error left for Manchester City basically they've got to sweep all before them if they're going to keep Chelsea away Chelsea are played you can see where he's coming from state Yeah well better now he's picking the right team you know he's already behind schedule now and the moment he's needed Yeah yeah it's already for me you've gone in the team he scored in the team a functioning better so there's 20 games he won't get back so that's a mistake we've got a chance of winning more football matches now with him in team possibly replace the keeper so you can get Joe Hart back and we can catch Chelsea I'm sure. Right Steve you pause for breath I'm a bit but with you in a minute for your commentary duties you are listening to Manchester sport b.b.c. Radio Manchester the last football of 2016 there's a big program tomorrow New Year's Day is traditionally a big big day for non-league football so there is a big programme of non-league football tomorrow in the National League with knuckles filled in all out seams and we have got huge representation locally in the National League north and the Monday it's a big big day of football the bank holiday football which represents the 1st day of legal action if you will for 2017 so 2017 hits the ground running big long non-league day tomorrow League action and Premier League action but with you on Monday Manchester City Burnley will bring you full much commentary of that game and in with the mix of course all the very best coverage of all our local side so there's an awful lot of football common us but if you are just joining us today for the last day of 2016 the bill of fare from 3 o'clock you'll have regular reports from the Premier League Manchester United to pay a rich vein of farmers there on Boxing Day and the score to corporates or if it goes or at the mic it's out in if you will be strict about it was offside but you don't hey it's a see a strike of that quality ruled out for a marginal offside united against Middlesbrough a regular reports on the big day for Wigan they really do need to start putting some points together if they're going to get themselves out of trouble at the foot of the championship that away it will have regular reports from Pride Park there in f.l. One game of the day I don't think there's any argument about it both New go into today's game 3rd take home top of the table scum top at the macro on stadium you also have a choice of a.f.l. One commentry games old and go to Fleetwood 95 point one f.m. Coming to go with Ben crouch and the former Rochdale manages Steve on commentry Jussi and if you want to. The fortunes of Barry football club that are where Bradford hopefully hopefully that point on a clean sheet last week of July started to steady the ship after 12 consecutive defeats but Chris Brust takes his side to Bradford and you have for much commentary on our d.a.p. Digital service of that game and then from 530 Manchester City away at Liverpool 3rd go to 2nd in the Premier League for much commentary followed by the post much phone and that set the bill of fare in basic terms but start the build up to those 3 o'clock and commentry game on 95 point one offense bottom of the table Oldham could do with a point or better Fleetwood to preview the game bankrupt them ending $26.00 they rock bottom of League One as you say without a winning night they could do without this tricky trip to Fleetwood it seems surprising many on the fringes of the playoffs a vital 3 points then are needed to ease those relegation fears and ease the mounting pressure on manager Steve Robinson live on 95 point one f.m. We stay there and even crouch or. Your alternative commentary going today on a digital service bury their away at Bradford and with them to bring in for much commentary from Bally paraded my new some well as he touched upon just before Jimmy that draw against Fleetwood so it was a chink of light for Barry at the end of what has been a pretty turbulent 2016 no win in 12 before that they've lost every one of those games in that draw it's just given them a little bit of a lift here they've only won twice away from home this season against Swindon and m.k. Dons with that but it's clean sheet that they picked up blames it in the 1st appearance of the season with the perhaps given them some hope as well the crippling injury list also touched upon is slightly starting to lessen James Bourne returns to the side today Jake I'm Alex is in as well they've got 6 substitutes instead of 5 but it's going to be a tough task rabbit unbeaten in Paul Bettany parade all season but after that draw maybe things are looking up in the right direction but Barry commentary from 3. Game of the day I don't think anybody could argue with that Super Bowl against. One mark what a roller coaster here it's been here at the Mark Brown Stadium court room chocolate ministration and as one of those tweets pointed out 10 minutes from this pub going to leave me out of business now it's all order and optimism under Phil Parkinson want to start the game they could have gone top we've just heard that Sheffield United have got one nil up against Northampton Town That means they can't go top either I'd still be the top there unless Scunthorpe went today Pope said definitely higher here than they were 12 months ago when Bolton were anchored to the foot of the championship but Neil Lennon it was doom and gloom there and relegation was a foregone conclusion but wonders have taken really well to League One football and is a genuine feeling among the fans at this club compounds straight back under Phil Parkinson to do that they've got to beat teams like Scunthorpe they've led the way since September when one wonders went through a little bit of a wobble they've gone through one of themselves after Rochdale bit of a couple of weeks ago but they've got goals all over the pitch and this is no gimme for Phil Parkinson these names don't change charge Scott don't make just one change their defensive point as well they drop striker Tom Harpur for midfielder Sam Nunn term it's going to be 1st his 3rd it's definitely the game of the day Jimmy and I'll be bringing you updates from 3 into the Championship trouble there in 23rd place with just 8 points from the 1st 23 she's played won't be easy away Darby will have regular reports with Russell and Warren Joyce's may just one change should a midfielder sure MacDonald comes in to help pack out a midfield 5 striker Craig Davis drops to the bench will green coolies the line up front behind him powered Gomes and form around Michael Jacobs will need to provide support as well as ammunition packed full of Kelly Byrne Buxton and warm hands full against Darby's front of Tommy. Derren Benton Well he's around solitary chain sees a catchy and here in at left back the task for the Latics today is an enviable no side to school to go Pride Park since September and the Rams recent revival and the state McCarron has seen them go 9 on pace in a meta point outside the playoffs one of those victories a one new Win a day earlier this month avoiding a 6 straight defeat would be a significant achievement but we're getting we will start 2017 inside the relegation zone regardless of today's results. Into the Premier League or Manchester United on a rich vein of form a sort of man box in de uncertain in the 2nd half they played some terrific stuff he's wrong the changes a bit today though the man will bring you the details of preview today's game against Middlesbrough being brought to the refrains of the Stone Roses in the background to be judged a very bomber is this the Madrid I soak around covering the middle or sides will drop it this afternoon and United looking to turn their run of 5 straight victories in 6 Middlesbrough Stuart just 7 goals on the road this season but will provide stiff opposition for the radios men all eyes on the last time a primitive window would see him equally in the messy as the top goalscorer in the top 5 leagues in Europe would crown him the top goalscorer as boss a don't like to stay united if kept by police Jacqueline Jakes in the final game of 201-213-1415 the same trying to do the same to tie 5 changes this morning by politely mark the out and make a Terry and come into the starting line up no Jones Rocco Carrick Lingard or mustn't be united the table to hire and go play in by Smalling ability or across the back of a lady and Herrera play Derek Pogba Marcial and make a terrier with Zlatan a brain of its leading the line. Will have regular reports most Trafford with Liam Bradford now football's going to take you through 8 o'clock because once the 3 o'clock. I'm interested well have a short interval where you can talk football with Steve the former manager is watching Oldham this afternoon at Fleetwood and with his dad Fred their former player manager coach scout broadcaster all ther he's done everything you can do in football you can talk to him both in the window of opportunity between about 5 and 2025 past 5 that is for much commentary from the Premier League Manchester City Liverpool game of the day I think it's safe to say in the top flight that game will take you through to about 20 past 7 ish we're with you through till 8 and you will have a chance to talk football them with myself but much more importantly with Fred through 8 o'clock do you need to get you bids in early though because it will be 8 o'clock before you know it and tonight if you want to celebrate New Year's Eve with the serum b.b.c.
