Evening. After another amazing summer of | :00:38. | :00:42. | |
British sporting success, here we go again, the beautiful game is back | :00:42. | :00:45. | |
and, if last season is anything to go by, the Skybet Football League | :00:45. | :00:48. | |
can guarantee nine months of drama, thrills and unpredictability across | :00:48. | :00:52. | |
all three divisions. This season we welcome QPR, Reading, | :00:52. | :00:55. | |
Wigan, Mansfield Town and Newport County as the League celebrates its | :00:55. | :01:00. | |
125th anniversary. Welcome back too to Leroy, and with | :01:00. | :01:03. | |
him tonight, fresh from overseeing Yeovil Town's first ever game in the | :01:03. | :01:13. | |
second tier, the Glovers boss Gary Johnson. He wears green even when he | :01:13. | :01:18. | |
is off-duty, clearly! Here's what to expect on our first | :01:18. | :01:22. | |
offering of a brand new season. After their two year stay with the | :01:22. | :01:25. | |
Premier League, QPR are adjusting to life back in the Championship, the | :01:25. | :01:30. | |
R's opening fixture - a home game against Sheffield Wednesday. | :01:30. | :01:32. | |
The Football League get their special anniversary celebrations | :01:32. | :01:36. | |
underway with a classic as founding members Burnley meet Bolton in a | :01:36. | :01:42. | |
local derby at Turf Moor. From League One we've extended | :01:42. | :01:44. | |
highlights of Sheffied United's meeting with the world's oldest | :01:45. | :01:54. | |
league club, Notts County. Since its first game on the opening day of the | :01:54. | :02:04. | |
very first season Dein deal have staged a record number of football | :02:04. | :02:14. | |
:02:14. | :02:19. | ||
league matches. 125 years they host Wolves. | :02:19. | :02:22. | |
Well, with three weeks still to go until the transfer window closes, | :02:22. | :02:25. | |
Loftus Road has already seen plenty of changes following their | :02:25. | :02:27. | |
relegation from the Premier League. Two notable additions include | :02:27. | :02:31. | |
striker Charlie Austin and Steve McClaren as part of the back room | :02:31. | :02:32. | |
staff. The first challenge for Harry | :02:32. | :02:35. | |
Redknapp's reshaped Rangers came in the form of Sheffield Wednesday, who | :02:35. | :02:38. | |
were embarking on their second season in the Championship. | :02:38. | :02:40. | |
Commentary comes from Nigel Adderley. It's the opening Saturday | :02:40. | :02:42. | |
of the 125th Anniversary football league season. We are in West London | :02:42. | :02:47. | |
for QPR verses Sheffield Wednesday, arguably the game of the weekend in | :02:47. | :02:57. | |
:02:57. | :03:09. | ||
that of Joey Barton. Who returns following a season on-loan at | :03:09. | :03:19. | |
:03:19. | :03:49. | ||
Marseille. Wednesday's transfer believes he was held there by | :03:49. | :03:55. | |
Gardner. That is developing into quite a tussle. Antonio. He had his | :03:56. | :04:01. | |
pocket picked there by Andrew Johnson. Johnson goes for goal! | :04:01. | :04:10. | |
Inches away. It took a corner. Johnson willing the ball himself. | :04:10. | :04:20. | |
:04:20. | :04:21. | ||
That deflection maybe kept Sheffield Wednesday on terms. Simpson. Here's | :04:21. | :04:30. | |
Johnson again! Good save by Kirkland. The saving clearance for | :04:30. | :04:37. | |
Sheffield Wednesday. Andrew Johnson is being given too much room by the | :04:37. | :04:47. | |
Owl's defence. Is That is a nice touch. He will be disappointed not | :04:47. | :04:53. | |
to hit the target from there. He is starting to cause problems for | :04:53. | :05:02. | |
Queens Park Rangers. Beaten to it by Traore. Coke with a solid challenge | :05:02. | :05:12. | |
:05:12. | :05:13. | ||
on Hoilett. Opening up for the shot. It's a brilliant goal! What a debut | :05:13. | :05:23. | |
:05:23. | :05:25. | ||
for Onuoha. What a fine individual goal that was. Queens Park Rangers | :05:25. | :05:31. | |
already knew he was a threat. It was too easy for him in the end, to cut | :05:31. | :05:39. | |
infield and delight those who travelled down from South Yorkshire. | :05:39. | :05:43. | |
An important touch away from Gardner. Barton doesn't take the | :05:43. | :05:50. | |
corner. Here is Forlan. The Argentine does well to regather his | :05:50. | :05:57. | |
feet. Here is Simpson. Now Johnson. He is onside. That is an excellent | :05:57. | :06:07. | |
:06:07. | :06:11. | ||
save from Kirkland. It is Kirkland with his second fine save of the | :06:11. | :06:21. | |
:06:21. | :06:23. | ||
game keeping Sheffield Wednesday in the lead. In behind Traore, going | :06:23. | :06:33. | |
:06:33. | :06:57. | ||
down. No penalty. Clearly, Antonio got there just before Johnson. A | :06:57. | :07:07. | |
:07:07. | :07:12. | ||
partner partnership starting between Zamora and Johnson. Hoilett. Onuoha | :07:12. | :07:22. | |
:07:22. | :07:37. | ||
gets the equaliser. Onuoha was there. Just like that, Queens Park | :07:38. | :07:47. | |
:07:48. | :07:49. | ||
Rangers have taken the lead. Very unlucky for Chris Kirkland, who made | :07:49. | :07:55. | |
a brilliant save to keep out Barton, but Johnson was there. That is an | :07:55. | :08:05. | |
:08:05. | :08:22. | ||
infatic finish from a player looking from Joey Barton. Waiting for the | :08:22. | :08:30. | |
pull back. What a brilliant save from Kirkland. He just be wondering | :08:30. | :08:40. | |
:08:40. | :08:43. | ||
where the cover was. Hoilett denied by the goalkeeper. The bounce of the | :08:43. | :08:53. | |
:08:53. | :08:53. | ||
ball favours Johnson. It's Antonio. What an opportunity to equalise. | :08:53. | :09:03. | |
:09:03. | :09:14. | ||
players so far. He loses out here. It's Barton's challenge. It's going | :09:14. | :09:22. | |
to be a yellow card for Joey Barton. You can't have too many complaints | :09:22. | :09:32. | |
:09:32. | :09:49. | ||
penalty? Barton's challenge. No, it's a yellow card for Maghoma for | :09:49. | :09:55. | |
diving. Well, Joey Barton must have had his heart in his mouth there as | :09:55. | :09:59. | |
the yellow card came out. Barton didn't get too much of him. If | :09:59. | :10:02. | |
anything at all. The Sheffield Wednesday player did make the most | :10:02. | :10:12. | |
:10:12. | :10:21. | ||
of it. It is still some time for Sheffield Wednesday. -- there is | :10:21. | :10:31. | |
:10:31. | :10:32. | ||
still some time for Sheffield Wednesday. He kept his feet, beat | :10:32. | :10:38. | |
Green, but not the far-post. Now Traore. A dash forward there from | :10:38. | :10:44. | |
the full-back. Traore again! Couldn't catchup Kirkland, at the | :10:44. | :10:53. | |
near-post. Without Chris Kirkland, Sheffield Wednesday would be well | :10:53. | :11:01. | |
adrift in this game. I thought it was a great opening day game. Great | :11:01. | :11:05. | |
atmosphere. Sheffield Wednesday brought fantastic support with them, | :11:05. | :11:09. | |
filled up one end of the stadium. A great buzz today. We showed | :11:09. | :11:13. | |
fantastic attitude to come back from 1-0 down. Everyone knows it's a | :11:13. | :11:16. | |
penalty. The only fella in the stadium who doesn't know it's a | :11:17. | :11:20. | |
penalty is the one that matters. He is the one with the whistle. He | :11:20. | :11:25. | |
should go home tonight and feel very embarrassed with his performance. He | :11:25. | :11:28. | |
spoilt what we were all trying to do. We need that group in there | :11:29. | :11:32. | |
today, they wanted to play. They wanted to have a go. Those who don't | :11:32. | :11:37. | |
want to be here, that is find fine. If that is their feelings they don't | :11:37. | :11:44. | |
want to play QPR, the quicker they can get on their way the better for | :11:44. | :11:48. | |
everybody. Negativity is no good at a football club. If you have people | :11:48. | :11:52. | |
who want to play you have a chance. There will be plenty of goings and | :11:52. | :11:57. | |
comings there. On the back of that game, QPR up and running. Sheffield | :11:57. | :12:02. | |
Wednesday, much to build on? Definitely. QPR delighted with the | :12:02. | :12:05. | |
three points, the start that Harry wanted. Sheffield Wednesday went a | :12:05. | :12:09. | |
plan, it worked up until the point when they didn't get a decision. | :12:09. | :12:13. | |
That is why Dave Jones was frustrated. They played on the | :12:13. | :12:18. | |
counter attack, an open attacking game. Had their chances didn't get | :12:18. | :12:22. | |
the decisions when they felt they should have. Dave Jones was livid. | :12:22. | :12:27. | |
You have sympathy with him, haven't you Gary? You might be part of the | :12:27. | :12:31. | |
same Manager's Union, the penalty shouts were decent? They were | :12:32. | :12:36. | |
decent. I understand why he is very disappointed. A clumsy challenge. As | :12:36. | :12:43. | |
you say, the forward did get ahead of the defender. If there had been | :12:43. | :12:47. | |
a... You know if that had been outside the penalty area that would | :12:47. | :12:53. | |
have been a foul. For me it was a penalty. A clumsy challenge. I can | :12:53. | :12:57. | |
understand why Dave has the hump. soon as he is touched he has every | :12:57. | :13:02. | |
right to go down. You can give the referee the benefit of the down on | :13:02. | :13:08. | |
that one. He books Maghoma for diving. Joey Barton has been booked | :13:08. | :13:12. | |
as well. It is a penalty. It gets them back into the game. QPR are | :13:12. | :13:17. | |
down to 10-men. You jnd stand why Dave was live individual. Harry | :13:17. | :13:23. | |
brought in Steve McClaren alongside Kevin Bond and Joe Jordan. You have | :13:23. | :13:29. | |
a similar balancing act at Yeovil. Will it will be interesting to see | :13:29. | :13:34. | |
how the balance works out in the back room? I think it will. Harry is | :13:34. | :13:37. | |
the manager if he brought Steve McClaren in to help him, he is part | :13:37. | :13:42. | |
of his team. I made sure when I came back that Terry was part of my | :13:42. | :13:47. | |
management team I wasn't coming back unless he stayed. The chemisty | :13:47. | :13:54. | |
between me him and Darren Weigh is good. I enjoy going in. As long as | :13:54. | :13:58. | |
Harry enjoys working with the team he is, woing with, they will all be | :13:58. | :14:05. | |
happy. Interesting to see how that, Let's find out how the other two | :14:06. | :14:09. | |
clubs relegated from the Premier League got on in the opening day, | :14:09. | :14:19. | |
:14:19. | :14:25. | ||
starting at the Madejski Stadium, as new Ipswich player who met yesterday | :14:25. | :14:35. | |
:14:35. | :14:35. | ||
with an uphill struggle. The joy of the Ipswich fans was tempered just | :14:35. | :14:45. | |
:14:45. | :14:50. | ||
before the break. Jay Tabb tried to seize the initiative. Redding | :14:50. | :15:00. | |
:15:00. | :15:03. | ||
responded. This cheeky effort drifted wide. Jay Tabb so David | :15:03. | :15:07. | |
McGoldrick thundering towards the box. Alex McCarthy's fine stop was | :15:07. | :15:17. | |
:15:17. | :15:21. | ||
much like his opposite number, Scott Loach. Redding launched their | :15:21. | :15:31. | |
:15:31. | :15:45. | ||
am delighted we have got the three points. Their keeper made some good | :15:45. | :15:55. | |
:15:55. | :16:02. | ||
saves. I am disappointed with the for promotion. Ben Watson struck | :16:02. | :16:12. | |
:16:12. | :16:13. | ||
first. It was a top quality finish. One or two big names have moved on, | :16:13. | :16:18. | |
but Wigan have kept hold of most of their better players. James Mcarthur | :16:18. | :16:28. | |
came close to doubling their lead, . If anything, we can have added | :16:28. | :16:37. | |
Premier League quality to their teams. Grant Holt's first tactics go | :16:37. | :16:44. | |
showed real quality. Dale Jennings joined from Bayern Munich. He had a | :16:44. | :16:50. | |
trust debut, getting a red card only six minutes after coming on as a | :16:50. | :17:00. | |
:17:00. | :17:17. | ||
substitute. Leon Barnett, another new recruit. All three - - the | :17:17. | :17:26. | |
Latics's chances this season depend on whether they can hold on to | :17:26. | :17:36. | |
:17:36. | :17:48. | ||
could have hoped for. Going to Barnsley on Thursday when you have | :17:48. | :17:55. | |
been relegated is not what you want. To win the championship, you | :17:55. | :18:02. | |
have to show the right attitude, and they did that and start to finish. | :18:02. | :18:09. | |
They have to negotiate a minimum of 55 games. It will depend on the | :18:09. | :18:19. | |
:18:19. | :18:21. | ||
squad they have got. If they use the same players, they will have to look | :18:21. | :18:27. | |
at having a less intense training regime. Players like playing | :18:27. | :18:31. | |
football, but if you have to work on something, sometimes you have to do | :18:31. | :18:41. | |
:18:41. | :18:43. | ||
that if things are not going well. It may cost them some point along | :18:43. | :18:52. | |
the way. Nigel has kept intact the title winning side of two seasons | :18:52. | :18:59. | |
ago. Nigel might want to change the approach and the star, but what he | :18:59. | :19:05. | |
still has got is that attitude Redding have always had. No matter | :19:05. | :19:15. | |
:19:15. | :19:16. | ||
how they play, they were giving 100%. - - Bay will give it 100%. | :19:16. | :19:21. | |
will be an entertaining season as far as the Royals are concerned. | :19:21. | :19:26. | |
What about the three clubs who came up to the championship? Doncaster | :19:26. | :19:30. | |
ten to the fold after one season away, but for Bournemouth it has | :19:30. | :19:36. | |
been 25 years since they were last there. All eyes were on Yeovil Town. | :19:36. | :19:40. | |
Their first-ever game in a championship was against Millwall, | :19:40. | :19:50. | |
:19:50. | :20:20. | ||
time. The Oval keeper had to turn sweeper when his defence was split | :20:20. | :20:30. | |
:20:30. | :20:30. | ||
apart. This became another fairy tale afternoon for the Somerset | :20:31. | :20:36. | |
club. Edward Utterson scored and began his championship career in | :20:36. | :20:44. | |
this fashion - - Edward Upson. Yeovil have grown one of the biggest | :20:44. | :20:48. | |
legal upset that had ever been seen. Under 1000 fans will be able to say, | :20:48. | :20:58. | |
:20:58. | :21:23. | ||
I was there. Who is worth ringing summer. Stephen Davis forms part of | :21:23. | :21:31. | |
a new Blackpool forward line. He did not have to wait too long for a | :21:31. | :21:41. | |
:21:41. | :21:43. | ||
debut goal. He got it despite some great goalkeeping from Turnbull. | :21:43. | :21:47. | |
This was long has the's first competitive match under their new | :21:47. | :21:54. | |
manager. They could easily have taken something from the game. | :21:54. | :22:04. | |
:22:04. | :22:09. | ||
Blackpool regained the lead. Gary MacKenzie speaks Turnbull. - - beat | :22:09. | :22:19. | |
:22:19. | :22:42. | ||
Turnbull. Blackpool's future surely played in the second tier of English | :22:43. | :22:52. | |
:22:53. | :23:16. | ||
football. They couldn't cope with Lewis Grabban. Yann Kermorgant | :23:16. | :23:26. | |
:23:26. | :23:29. | ||
brought them level with a special finish. The Cherries back in front, | :23:29. | :23:39. | |
:23:39. | :23:45. | ||
and in some style. Some outstanding effort. Lewis Grabban was on top | :23:45. | :23:55. | |
:23:55. | :24:00. | ||
form. Bradley Pritchard was an unfortunate player. He got a red | :24:00. | :24:10. | |
:24:10. | :24:44. | ||
opening day. We knew that the first three points we got were important. | :24:44. | :24:54. | |
:24:54. | :25:04. | ||
The season has been talked about a lot. I had faith that I could trust | :25:04. | :25:08. | |
the boys not to be shrinking violets. They knew the importance of | :25:08. | :25:18. | |
:25:18. | :25:19. | ||
it. It is fair to say you go into this season with less pressure. Does | :25:19. | :25:29. | |
:25:29. | :25:31. | ||
it help? I think so. Nobody is expecting others to win. If nobody | :25:31. | :25:35. | |
is expecting you to win, anything is a bonus. We will be playing on | :25:35. | :25:43. | |
that. What constitutes a good season for Yeovil Town? We will have to | :25:43. | :25:48. | |
judge it at the end. We want to stay clear of the relegation zone. We're | :25:48. | :25:53. | |
just playing each game as it comes. We want to try and enjoy every game | :25:53. | :26:00. | |
and judge success at the end of the season. It could be mid-table, it | :26:00. | :26:04. | |
could be play-offs, whatever. We will enjoy the season. We wish you | :26:04. | :26:10. | |
all the best. Bolton missed off on the play-offs by the narrowest of | :26:10. | :26:14. | |
margins last season. On Saturday, they kicked off the new campaign | :26:14. | :26:21. | |
just as they did the last with a local derby at Ben Mee. Tom Heaton | :26:21. | :26:25. | |
and David Jones make their debuts for Ben Mee, who began life without | :26:25. | :26:31. | |
Charlie Austin. Bolton was Dougie Freedman handed debuts to Alex | :26:31. | :26:41. | |
:26:41. | :27:00. | ||
Baptiste, Matt Tierney and Jermaine Alex back tees. - - Alex Baptiste. | :27:00. | :27:10. | |
:27:10. | :27:15. | ||
Chris Eagles, Jermaine Beckford. This was the first major scare for | :27:15. | :27:25. | |
:27:25. | :27:33. | ||
Tom Heaton, the new goalkeeper for Ben Mee. Danny Ings has the first | :27:33. | :27:42. | |
championship goal of the season. Is this the year when Danny Ings | :27:42. | :27:52. | |
:27:52. | :28:29. | ||
delivers for Burnley? Darren Pratley's finish has Bolton that - - | :28:29. | :28:39. | |
:28:39. | :29:04. | ||
back, at 1-1. This has been a David Wheater had a couple of bites | :29:04. | :29:14. | |
:29:14. | :29:25. | ||
away by the flying Heaton. Great connection. A fine save too from the | :29:25. | :29:34. | |
debut-making keeper this. That is top corner bound, isn't it? We are a | :29:34. | :29:40. | |
club that has to make sure the club moves forward. There is good quality | :29:40. | :29:47. | |
there. That is an important part of the Championship feeling having a | :29:47. | :29:51. | |
knift feeling to the squad. There are good signs of that today. Bolton | :29:51. | :29:57. | |
had power in the market. The play was fantastic. I felt there were | :29:57. | :30:04. | |
times in certain areas we weren't firing on all cylinders. With Eagles | :30:04. | :30:10. | |
and Beckford, it's a matter of time. A sobering start at St Andrews as | :30:10. | :30:20. | |
Birmingham mark the untimely death of their former striker Christian | :30:20. | :30:30. | |
:30:30. | :30:51. | ||
their team. They began to gel after the break. The Spaniard was just as | :30:51. | :30:58. | |
sharp when we needed to get down quickly from a corner after | :30:59. | :31:08. | |
Shinnie's shot was diverted. The Blue the pushed hard for a point. | :31:08. | :31:14. | |
Zola was delighted to see them past the test. I liked the way we didn't | :31:14. | :31:19. | |
give up. Last year in circumstances like this we would have conceded. We | :31:19. | :31:23. | |
did concede goals. So we are looking forward to improving that. Sometimes | :31:23. | :31:28. | |
you don't get what you deserve. It's a tough one to swallow. We will | :31:28. | :31:33. | |
recover from that. We will have a little bit of a soak tonight. We | :31:33. | :31:35. | |
will brush ourselves down in the morning and get ready for Plymouth | :31:35. | :31:45. | |
on Tuesday. Leicester's campaign last season ended in the play-offs | :31:45. | :31:53. | |
with last-minute agony with Watford. Whitehead went close as | :31:53. | :31:57. | |
Middlesbrough dominated the first half. They soon claimed the opening | :31:57. | :32:06. | |
goal. It came from an un xpt unexpected source. St Ledger scored | :32:06. | :32:11. | |
an own-goal. The second-half was a very different story. The Foxes | :32:11. | :32:15. | |
rediscovered their mow goal after the break. Danny Drinkwater put them | :32:16. | :32:21. | |
level 15 minutes after the restart. For Boro this game was like last | :32:21. | :32:29. | |
season a great start followed by a collapse. Seven-minutes later, lest | :32:29. | :32:36. | |
-- Leicester were ahead with Vardy's finish. Vardy struck the post during | :32:36. | :32:39. | |
the second-half. The Foxes will need more of the same if they are to | :32:39. | :32:44. | |
improve on last season. Certainly in the second-half we played with a | :32:44. | :32:48. | |
better tempo. Made a lot more positive decisions in possession and | :32:49. | :32:53. | |
we looked a dangerous side. Good to get off to a winning start. We lost | :32:53. | :32:58. | |
the first game last season but we were never out of the top six for | :32:58. | :33:02. | |
the first six months of the season. A long way to go. We will get back | :33:02. | :33:09. | |
on track on Tuesday night, hopefully. Nearly 2,000 Huddersfield | :33:09. | :33:13. | |
fans were at the ground for the season opening. The manager is | :33:13. | :33:18. | |
promising attacking football from his side and new recruit threatened | :33:18. | :33:28. | |
a breakthrough. Billy Davis, it's the minimum requirement, | :33:28. | :33:38. | |
:33:38. | :33:42. | ||
expectations are high. This shot came close. The keeper was forced | :33:42. | :33:52. | |
:33:52. | :33:54. | ||
into a smart save. This one-two with Simon Cox opened up the visitor's | :33:54. | :34:02. | |
defence, Lansbury put in a tap-in effort. Cox was afforded too much | :34:02. | :34:06. | |
space, but couldn't punish the opposition. Vaughan wasn't far away | :34:06. | :34:15. | |
from an equaliser. Vaughan couldn't finish. There was a late opportunity | :34:15. | :34:20. | |
for Matt Derbyshire, he couldn't connect. Forest though had done | :34:20. | :34:29. | |
enough. Billy Davis had that winning feeling. There is a fresh feel to | :34:29. | :34:33. | |
Leeds United. Ken Bates have gone, the fans returned, 33,000 to witness | :34:33. | :34:39. | |
what was a new dawn for Brighton. Garcia was their replacement. He | :34:40. | :34:49. | |
:34:50. | :34:51. | ||
watched his side make a promising start as owe landy let fly. In the | :34:51. | :35:01. | |
:35:01. | :35:01. | ||
13th minute Bruno threaded through a pass that was despatched first time. | :35:01. | :35:11. | |
:35:11. | :35:12. | ||
Leeds produced a rapid response to loa's -- Ulloa's goal through Ross | :35:12. | :35:22. | |
:35:22. | :35:32. | ||
one of Leeds replacements left gourd oon Greer lagging. Paul Green lashed | :35:32. | :35:37. | |
his shot wide. This was a crash course for albee yonk's new boss on | :35:37. | :35:41. | |
the craziness of the Championship. He must have thought Buckley was | :35:41. | :35:51. | |
:35:51. | :35:53. | ||
about to pinch the points. Kenny kept it level. -- Albion's. This was | :35:53. | :36:00. | |
the first repayment, sending Elland Road into orbit. Controversy at the | :36:00. | :36:05. | |
end about the goal? Possible handball I don't know. Their goal | :36:05. | :36:12. | |
was offside. That's how it is sometimes. I think I just felt that | :36:12. | :36:17. | |
we, for the fact that we kept going and kept trying to win that game, we | :36:17. | :36:21. | |
probably just edged it. If it was a draw today against a very, very good | :36:21. | :36:26. | |
side I would have had no complaints. A good win for Leeds that adds to | :36:26. | :36:32. | |
the feel good factor emanating around Elland Roads. We saw some | :36:32. | :36:36. | |
good results there. What are your thoughts on the teams perceived as | :36:36. | :36:40. | |
the favourites for promotion and relegation. Do you necessarily agree | :36:40. | :36:45. | |
with them? You can understand why the teams we are talking about, QPR, | :36:45. | :36:50. | |
Reading, Wigan and Bolton, you can understand that. I can make a case | :36:50. | :36:57. | |
about 12 sides who can be in the round. 's not as clear-cut, I | :36:57. | :37:03. | |
suppose it rarely is. McDermott went to Leeds because he feels he has a | :37:03. | :37:11. | |
squad that could go up, he hasn't gone to be there mid-table. I think | :37:11. | :37:15. | |
the pressure will be off Leicester and theyle might make a run for it. | :37:15. | :37:20. | |
Does it annoy you to see Yeovil there? We are not there. Not | :37:20. | :37:25. | |
tonight. This is before kick-off?Of course, yes. I understand that. We | :37:25. | :37:28. | |
are the lowest budget, we are probably the smallest club. You know | :37:28. | :37:33. | |
the strength we are going to use - there will be teams in that list and | :37:33. | :37:37. | |
beyond that list where they are under pressure to get promoted. | :37:37. | :37:41. | |
There is big pressure on those managers at the at the moment. | :37:41. | :37:46. | |
horses to look out for? I don't know. You are, sort of... You are | :37:46. | :37:50. | |
wondering whether Brighton, Leeds, those teams, someone will come out | :37:50. | :37:55. | |
the pack that are not in that top five or six. You know, we are going | :37:55. | :38:00. | |
to try and think of ourselves as a dark, dark horse. Of course.We are | :38:00. | :38:06. | |
not getting carried away. And do your best to roughle some feathers. | :38:06. | :38:12. | |
We have won one game, let's keep our We have won one game, let's keep our | :38:12. | :38:17. | |
feet... Well, as for League One, two more of | :38:17. | :38:19. | |
the League's founder members, Preston and Wolves, went | :38:19. | :38:22. | |
head-to-head on Saturday. Clem was at Deepdale to join in the | :38:22. | :38:32. | |
:38:32. | :38:33. | ||
anniversary. It was football, but not as we know it now. No numbers, | :38:33. | :38:40. | |
goal nets or substitutes. Goalkeepers wore the same kit as | :38:40. | :38:48. | |
outfield players. The referee stood on the touchline arbitrating between | :38:48. | :38:52. | |
two umpires, one supplied by each club. Here at Deepdale the changing | :38:52. | :38:59. | |
rooms were a tent as Preston's Inconvince yibls kicked off their | :38:59. | :39:04. | |
first game when they went on to be unbeaten League and Cup double | :39:04. | :39:10. | |
winners. Since the football league kicked off in 18 88, 2.2 billion | :39:11. | :39:18. | |
supporters have watched 177,000 matches, 40,000 players, and over | :39:18. | :39:25. | |
half a million goals. 2,342 matches here at Deepdale in the Football | :39:25. | :39:31. | |
League, that is a record. I want your highlight of watching Preston? | :39:31. | :39:37. | |
I have been watching them since 1946. Your highlight? Weighting | :39:37. | :39:44. | |
Birmingham in the play-off finals. Second leg play-off in 95 against | :39:44. | :39:49. | |
Torquay. Do you feel a connection with the past and those 125 years | :39:49. | :39:54. | |
that have gone before? I think each club, like ours, has this tradition | :39:54. | :39:58. | |
and history. You feel that a new group of players could be part of | :39:58. | :40:01. | |
something special again this season, possibly. You will never go away | :40:01. | :40:05. | |
from the past, hopefully the future will encourage people to remember | :40:05. | :40:11. | |
the good times as well. He will now today have played for three of the | :40:11. | :40:15. | |
12 founder members of the Football League? I was at Blackburn with him | :40:15. | :40:24. | |
as well. He is a good influence. We beat half a dozen clubs to his | :40:24. | :40:27. | |
signature. Fit as a fiddle, looking to do something in the game. | :40:27. | :40:33. | |
Delighted to have got him. They pushed to get me. That helped to | :40:33. | :40:38. | |
make the decision to come here. Hopefully get pro promotion. That is | :40:38. | :40:45. | |
why I'm here to hope out. Don't you worry when you look at the programme | :40:45. | :40:52. | |
there is a miss print. I'm delighted to be in at Wolves. I made a high | :40:52. | :40:56. | |
number of changes. Even two players start today at Preston from the side | :40:56. | :40:59. | |
that finished at Brighton last year in the Championship. Quite a number | :40:59. | :41:05. | |
of changes. I'm looking forward to seeing them play. Too many losers. | :41:05. | :41:10. | |
We have to change it, definitely. need to wipe the slate clean. We | :41:10. | :41:14. | |
need to move forward with younger players that are hungry for it and | :41:14. | :41:19. | |
earlier in their careers. We did OK last year. Plus with the players we | :41:19. | :41:22. | |
signed as well, it has made us better as a team, not just the | :41:22. | :41:27. | |
squad. We would like to think we won't be too far away. It's a long | :41:27. | :41:32. | |
hard season. I have been there a few times. It can take its toll on | :41:32. | :41:40. | |
people and you can only do as good people and you can only do as good | :41:40. | :41:42. | |
as you can each game. COMMENTATOR: There were nearly | :41:42. | :41:48. | |
16,000 at Deepdale to mark this occasion. It has been all change at | :41:48. | :41:58. | |
:41:58. | :42:00. | ||
Wolves, Kenny Jackett trying to stop the rot in the club. They failed to | :42:00. | :42:06. | |
get any distance on a punch clearance, this effort was cleared | :42:06. | :42:11. | |
off the goal-line, the Lillywhites had chances of their own but lacked | :42:11. | :42:17. | |
the necessary finish. Wolvesed looked to catch their hosts on the | :42:17. | :42:24. | |
counter. Once again, no end product. Rudd cut out the low angled cross, | :42:24. | :42:34. | |
:42:34. | :42:39. | ||
That was good. I thought we played well. We worked hard. Some good | :42:39. | :42:44. | |
quality. That game was on a knife edge. We will take a point. For such | :42:44. | :42:48. | |
a state occasion, what a great atmosphere? We have a fantastic fan | :42:48. | :42:52. | |
base. Hopefully we can give them something to cheer about this | :42:52. | :43:00. | |
season. Your boys put one hell of a shift in. No doubting the attitude | :43:00. | :43:04. | |
out there? Pleased not to get beaten. Tough place to come. There | :43:04. | :43:10. | |
is more to come. A tough opening test for Wolves against a Preston | :43:10. | :43:13. | |
side tipped to do well. They have to hit the ground running this | :43:13. | :43:18. | |
campaign? I disagree with that. I don't think they have to hit the | :43:18. | :43:22. | |
ground running, they have to be solid. That is what we haven't seen | :43:22. | :43:27. | |
from Wolves. 12 months ago they were playing in the Premier League and | :43:27. | :43:30. | |
they are in League One. He will be pleased with the cleansheet. They | :43:30. | :43:35. | |
need to get into the a run of form in the season. They need to be solid | :43:35. | :43:39. | |
and competitive. If they are that at the start of the season, that is | :43:39. | :43:45. | |
when their quality will come out. Change of gear at Molyneux. It's a | :43:45. | :43:49. | |
younger side. They will be seen as a big scalp? They will. Everybody will | :43:49. | :43:53. | |
go to nol knew with the big crowd and the big atmosphere they get | :43:53. | :43:57. | |
there. Again, they have nothing to lose. They have to go there and pick | :43:57. | :44:02. | |
up a result. You know, Kenny and the team have got to win the fans over. | :44:02. | :44:06. | |
They have the support. Got to get the support back positive. The only | :44:06. | :44:10. | |
way to do that is to win games and be competing at the top of the | :44:10. | :44:15. | |
League. That is where Wolves have to be. Preston, we know what Simon | :44:15. | :44:21. | |
Grayson has done with other teams in this division, are you looking for a | :44:21. | :44:25. | |
top season from them? Simon has gone there and had the experience with | :44:25. | :44:30. | |
Huddersfield of getting teams promoted. I can see why they are | :44:30. | :44:35. | |
optimistic. They are a big club. You talk about Wolves being a big club, | :44:35. | :44:40. | |
Preston are just as big and just as optimistic. | :44:40. | :44:44. | |
More from League One now and we start our round-up at London Road as | :44:44. | :44:47. | |
newly relegated Peterborough got their new season up and running | :44:47. | :44:50. | |
against the only Football League team currently without a permanent | :44:50. | :45:00. | |
:45:00. | :45:17. | ||
Peterborough. They were relegated in dramatic circumstances. They are | :45:17. | :45:25. | |
more than capable of answering straight back. Swindon sign six | :45:25. | :45:35. | |
:45:35. | :45:48. | ||
players from Tottenham in the game of the season, all you can ask | :45:48. | :45:58. | |
:45:58. | :46:09. | ||
for is a win. We have got a clean league from opposite directions. At | :46:09. | :46:15. | |
the relegation, Sean O'Driscoll has overhauled his squad. He has five | :46:15. | :46:25. | |
:46:25. | :46:55. | ||
new recruits. Phil Parkinson's side an immediate impact. Jay | :46:55. | :47:05. | |
:47:05. | :47:12. | ||
pressure. You look at your players and see who responds in the right | :47:12. | :47:18. | |
way. To be fair, they all responded, they all tried to do the right | :47:18. | :47:21. | |
thing. Sometimes a bit misguided, but everyone is trying to do the | :47:21. | :47:31. | |
:47:31. | :47:31. | ||
Apology for the loss of subtitles for 70 seconds | :47:31. | :48:41. | |
on the first day, they went on to out of luck later on. Crew were | :48:42. | :48:47. | |
quickly out of the box. Anthony Grant scored in the first few | :48:47. | :48:57. | |
:48:57. | :48:58. | ||
minutes. It wasn't the start rather unwanted. - - it wasn't the start | :48:58. | :49:08. | |
:49:08. | :49:19. | ||
rather wanted. Lee Freckleton found the corner. The referee awarded a | :49:19. | :49:29. | |
:49:29. | :49:31. | ||
Scott kick. When it looked as though crew might take maximum points, this | :49:31. | :49:41. | |
:49:41. | :49:41. | ||
shot went in. That was the 86th minute. There was a 90th minute | :49:41. | :49:51. | |
:49:51. | :50:00. | ||
equaliser. Lee Freckleton with his are came down from the | :50:00. | :50:09. | |
Championships. If you are Darren Ferguson, when you spend a lot of | :50:09. | :50:17. | |
money on a player, I suppose there is a bit of a fear. It is nice to | :50:17. | :50:27. | |
start like that. It settles everybody down. You do not want a 34 | :50:27. | :50:37. | |
:50:37. | :50:38. | ||
games without scoring. Peterborough have done well. It is credit to | :50:38. | :50:48. | |
:50:48. | :50:54. | ||
them. Is it ever a niggling fear about the money? Not for the | :50:54. | :51:04. | |
:51:04. | :51:05. | ||
manager. It is down to the player's character and personality whether he | :51:05. | :51:13. | |
can handle it. The crowd cannot get onto him very quickly, otherwise | :51:13. | :51:20. | |
they soon fade and drift away. He has his goal, so he is in credit. | :51:20. | :51:23. | |

night. To founder member scared up to each other - - squared up to each | :51:30. | :51:40. | |

other with Sheffield United taking dismissal, less than 30 minutes into | :52:00. | :52:10. | |
:52:10. | :52:24. | ||
the opening game. It was reckless. No question, having seen the replay. | :52:24. | :52:33. | |
The opening goal was from Kevin Donald. First goal for Sheffield | :52:34. | :52:43. | |
:52:44. | :52:52. | ||
United under the tutelage of David Weir. McDonald's. That was untidy, | :52:52. | :53:01. | |
very untidy. Most of the crowd expected a penalty to be given in | :53:01. | :53:11. | |
:53:11. | :53:11. | ||
Apology for the loss of subtitles for 70 seconds | :53:11. | :54:20. | |
football if you don't win football games. You have to get results. That | :54:20. | :54:27. | |
was pleasing. Big talking point, is that sending off. How did you see | :54:27. | :54:37. | |
:54:37. | :54:41. | ||
that? I do not think he was hurt. Whether it is a red card or not, I | :54:41. | :54:51. | |
:54:51. | :54:55. | ||
am not sure. It is frustrating. I think there were one or two | :54:55. | :55:05. | |
:55:05. | :55:21. | ||
decisions that might have gone our the loss of Lee Miller. Clark was | :55:21. | :55:31. | |
:55:31. | :55:50. | ||
knocked unconscious and left in a nearly two years. Orient pulled away | :55:50. | :56:00. | |
:56:00. | :56:20. | ||
in the second half. David Mooney was well enough to join the team on | :56:21. | :56:30. | |
:56:31. | :56:46. | ||
the ground to make the decision it Coventry. Early goals for Jamie | :56:46. | :56:50. | |
Proctor and Joe Walsh put them two goals behind, just past the 20 | :56:50. | :56:56. | |
minute mark. It was all too much for some of the Coventry supporters, who | :56:56. | :57:00. | |
let their frustration get the better of them during a short hold-up in | :57:00. | :57:05. | |
play. Once relative calm was restored, the Coventry players | :57:05. | :57:15. | |
:57:15. | :57:24. | ||
produced a terrific fightback. Another close range finish here. | :57:24. | :57:34. | |

:59:05. | :59:07. | ||
goal, with 13 minutes to play. The match was tied at three all. The | :59:07. | :59:17. | |
:59:17. | :59:28. | ||
game had another twist. The second play-offs. This opener against | :59:28. | :59:32. | |
Tranmere suggested they could be a Tranmere suggested they could be a | :59:32. | :59:35. | |
side to punch above their weight again amongst the more interesting | :59:35. | :59:45. | |

summer deals was the arriving of the Slovakian. He made it 2-0Lalkovic. | :59:50. | :59:55. | |
Andy Robinson halved the deficit before the break. Westcarr were in | :59:55. | :00:01. | |
the mood. After a one, two with Lalkovic he wrapped up the points, | :00:01. | :00:07. | |
18 minutes from time. Any fears that Walsall fans had for losing their | :00:07. | :00:10. | |
top three goalscorers last season, that result will do them the power | :00:10. | :00:16. | |
of good. Coventry start the season on minus 10 points. Whatever it is, | :00:16. | :00:20. | |
this infighting between the owners of the stadium and the football | :00:20. | :00:23. | |
club, something has to come to a resolution quickly, hasn't it? | :00:23. | :00:28. | |
quickly. It's an absolute mess. The fans are fighting to keep the club | :00:28. | :00:32. | |
in Coventry. They are threatening to play in Northampton. The key is to | :00:32. | :00:38. | |
have a football club. They have been deducted the 10 points, minus 10 | :00:38. | :00:42. | |
points, it deteriorated into a sham. Someone has to take hold of it and | :00:42. | :00:48. | |
make positive decisions very, very quickly. We saw high scoring | :00:48. | :00:52. | |
victories for Leyton Orient and a manager by the name of Lee Johnson, | :00:52. | :00:57. | |
I don't know if you know him, Gary? Four goals away at Stevenage. What a | :00:57. | :01:04. | |
great opening day? A great opening day. You get your ups and downs. | :01:04. | :01:08. | |
This was unbelievable goal. Just outside his own penalty area. | :01:08. | :01:12. | |
the energy to lift it over the goalkeeper at the end, it was | :01:12. | :01:19. | |
fantastic. I spoke to him on the phone, on the our perspective buses | :01:19. | :01:29. | |

he said watch for Montano's goal. How hard is it to get out of this | :01:35. | :01:39. | |
division, Gary? It's very hard to get out of the division. It's hard | :01:39. | :01:43. | |
to get out of division. It is hard in League One. A lot of teams are | :01:43. | :01:48. | |
much of a muchness. You have to hang on in there. There are times when | :01:48. | :01:55. | |
you can win five, six on the trot and you could lose five or six on | :01:55. | :01:59. | |
the trot which you probably can't on the Championship am you have to hang | :01:59. | :02:02. | |
in there. It's always, I think, very tight and very close. They probably | :02:02. | :02:07. | |
have the right group of teams for top and bottom, if you like, again | :02:07. | :02:11. | |
there is always somebody that comes out the pack, us, and Walsall last | :02:11. | :02:15. | |
year were the the two favourites for relegation. Both of us, you know, | :02:15. | :02:19. | |
gave it a right good go. Us getting promoted them just missing out on | :02:19. | :02:26. | |
promoted them just missing out on the play-offs. | :02:26. | :02:29. | |
To League Two then and a historic day for Welsh football as Newport | :02:29. | :02:32. | |
County returned to the Football League after a 24-year absence. | :02:32. | :02:38. | |
They opened their account against James Beattie's Accrington. This is | :02:38. | :02:43. | |
one place with the season couldn't one place with the season couldn't | :02:43. | :02:47. | |
end soon enough Their old club folded and reformed at the end of | :02:47. | :02:55. | |
the '80s. Accrington's defens -- defence was at sixes and sevens. It | :02:55. | :02:59. | |
weighs Chapman's first appearance when the new boys put on a good | :02:59. | :03:09. | |
:03:09. | :03:18. | ||
show. Chapman led the charge. Jolley's late goal brought the | :03:18. | :03:21. | |
resistance cut in from the wing to all but finish the contest. An | :03:22. | :03:25. | |
impressive variety of goals from the league's newcomers that will fill | :03:25. | :03:35. | |
:03:35. | :03:35. | ||
them with confidence ahead of Tuesday's Cup trip to Brighton. | :03:35. | :03:42. | |
Accrington's new manager said their players who have taken bets that | :03:42. | :03:52. | |
:03:52. | :03:53. | ||
have made them go grey. Newport were back with a bang and relishing the | :03:53. | :03:58. | |
campaign to come. I felt that if we got the right result here today that | :03:58. | :04:01. | |
the momentum would continue and these fans have been fantastic loyal | :04:01. | :04:05. | |
over 25 years. They have turned out in great numbers we sent them home | :04:05. | :04:15. | |
:04:15. | :04:18. | ||
happy. We want them to continue to come and support us. This was a | :04:19. | :04:24. | |
harsh reintroduction to life at this level. Scunthorpe took the lead, | :04:24. | :04:32. | |
Sparrow scored on his return. Scunny made it two before half-time. | :04:32. | :04:36. | |
Winnall got to the threw ball before the keeper. The finish was a | :04:36. | :04:42. | |
formality. Simply put, Scunthorpe made the most of their chances. The | :04:42. | :04:49. | |
same couldn't be said of Mansfield. They missed plenty. Reid went close. | :04:49. | :04:55. | |
Not even a late penalty could get the Stags on the scoresheet. Nolan | :04:55. | :04:59. | |
handled this cross to give away a needless spot-kick. What is worse, | :04:59. | :05:03. | |
is that it was the defender's second yellow card offence. Scunthorpe | :05:03. | :05:11. | |
finished the game with 10-men. They kept a cleansheet. The penalty went | :05:11. | :05:16. | |
into the crowd. Scunthorpe made the better start to life in League Two. | :05:16. | :05:19. | |
Questions were certainly posed, but I thought that we answered quite a | :05:19. | :05:22. | |
lot of them today in the fact that this is how we are going to approach | :05:22. | :05:28. | |
this. This is how we are going to play. They were a stern test, | :05:28. | :05:32. | |
Mansfield. I thought they posed the questions that we expected. I | :05:32. | :05:39. | |
thought we dealt with them very, very well. A record crowd for League | :05:39. | :05:48. | |
Two of more than 18,000 turned out. The vast majority delighted to see | :05:48. | :05:54. | |
Agyemang score. Portsmouth are a big fish at this level. That means a | :05:54. | :05:58. | |
prized scalp for the rest. Oxford reminded them that promotion is no | :05:59. | :06:05. | |
formality. Deane Smalley took nine minutes to put the Ewe's back on | :06:05. | :06:10. | |
terms. Alfie Potter set up the first goal, he helped himself to the | :06:10. | :06:20. | |
:06:20. | :06:20. | ||
second. Worst was to come. After the break the referee had a good view | :06:20. | :06:29. | |
and had no doubt he saw a raised elbow. Pompey faced the final | :06:29. | :06:35. | |
half-hour with 10-men. Potter tormented the home side making | :06:35. | :06:43. | |
himself the space to crash home the third. They will have enjoyed this | :06:43. | :06:50. | |
away day as much as any. With Portsmouth stretched again by | :06:50. | :06:54. | |
Potter's running there was room in the middle for Smalley to wrap it | :06:54. | :07:02. | |
up. Pompey's script ripped to shreds. We have to take the | :07:02. | :07:06. | |
positives. The first 30 to 335 minutes one team looked positive out | :07:06. | :07:10. | |
there. That is football. It can kick you in the teeth at the best of | :07:10. | :07:16. | |
times. They started off better than us and deservedly went ahead. We | :07:16. | :07:21. | |
managed to get up the pitch a little bit more, scored a great time and | :07:21. | :07:30. | |
went on to score some good goals. Another of the football league's | :07:30. | :07:33. | |
Anniversary Games, Rochdale verses Hartlepool is the most played | :07:33. | :07:37. | |
fixture between any two teams currently in the 72. They haven't | :07:37. | :07:42. | |
always been graced with goals of this class. Scott Hogan opened the | :07:42. | :07:52. | |
:07:52. | :07:54. | ||
scoring in some style. Dale doubled their lead. The referee awarded a | :07:54. | :08:00. | |
penalty. Donnelly did the business from the spot. Hartlepool began to | :08:00. | :08:04. | |
experience a familiar sirnging feeling. Back in the fourth tier | :08:04. | :08:09. | |
Pools have yet to stop the rot. Ian Henderson was the scorer eight | :08:09. | :08:14. | |
minutes later from an impressive looking Rochdale. I'm pleased. We | :08:14. | :08:17. | |
worked on a lot of things in preseason. It's great when it comes | :08:17. | :08:21. | |
together. With respect to a result, that is all you are interested in, | :08:21. | :08:30. | |
the end result. The performances for me will generate results. After | :08:30. | :08:35. | |
relegation from League One Bury's transformation saw seven players | :08:35. | :08:39. | |
making their debuts. It was one of the few survivors from last term who | :08:39. | :08:44. | |
couldn't finish. Chesterfield are fancied for promotion. Their opener | :08:44. | :08:51. | |
came as Jay O'Shea twisted and turned his way past the skipper | :08:51. | :08:56. | |
before beating the keeper. The Irishman was off the mark on the | :08:56. | :09:02. | |
opening day. The Spireites wrapped up victory with this counter attack. | :09:02. | :09:12. | |
:09:12. | :09:15. | ||
Richards got ahead of Hinds. He cut inside before blasting past Lleyton. | :09:15. | :09:19. | |
Chesterfield in good shape. Chesterfield a strong showing. Well | :09:19. | :09:24. | |
done to Newport County they had to wait to get back in the League. Four | :09:24. | :09:30. | |
goals on their opening day against Accrington it doesn't get better. | :09:30. | :09:39. | |
years, a party atmosphere. The players lived up to that. Zebroski - | :09:39. | :09:48. | |
He has been around? In the west country. They have people who have | :09:48. | :09:52. | |
the club at heart and worked hard. Edwards hats gone there and done the | :09:52. | :09:56. | |
business and got them out of the Conference and started off the | :09:56. | :10:05. | |
season in good style. Good wins for Scunthorpe and Rochdale. 18,000 to | :10:05. | :10:09. | |
cheer on Portsmouth. Staggering attendance. They were building on | :10:09. | :10:13. | |
the feel good factor by taking the League Oxford come back with a | :10:13. | :10:17. | |
terrific result at the end of it? 18,000, magnificent bit of support | :10:18. | :10:21. | |
there for them. They would have wanted to come out of that game with | :10:21. | :10:28. | |
the win. They got a lad sent off, 2-1 down. 4-1 at home is a big | :10:28. | :10:32. | |
defeat. They have gone through bigger troubles? They have gone | :10:32. | :10:42. | |
:10:42. | :10:46. | ||
through everything. They will get Our last look at League Two now and | :10:46. | :10:49. | |
both Cheltenham and Burton reached the play-offs last time out. | :10:49. | :10:52. | |
Both sides then keen to get their campaigns off to a winning start at | :10:53. | :11:02. | |
:11:03. | :11:05. | ||
campaigns off to a winning start at Whaddon Road. Charlton's Cureton | :11:05. | :11:08. | |
pounced on the last ball. He was injured and forced to leave the | :11:09. | :11:16. | |
field. The ball fell for Harrison, the Cheltenham substitute took full | :11:16. | :11:20. | |
advantage. In first half stoppage-time Burton found a way | :11:20. | :11:27. | |
back into the match. The player was adjudged to have handled inside the | :11:28. | :11:32. | |
penalty. This penalty was a life line. They strengthened their | :11:32. | :11:38. | |
position after the interval thanks to Rory Delap. A debut goal for the | :11:38. | :11:43. | |
recent rival. Burton clawed back a two goal deficit. There was a late | :11:43. | :11:47. | |
opportunity for Deering. The ball cam back off the crossbar. The | :11:47. | :11:54. | |
Cheltenham manager felt his side had thrown it away. We were very good | :11:54. | :12:01. | |
first half, very, very good. Sloppy goal from a set-piece in the | :12:01. | :12:11. | |
:12:11. | :12:15. | ||
second-half. Coles got the opener for Exeter, shy of the hour mark. | :12:15. | :12:19. | |
They hadn't won any of their previous five opening matches. They | :12:19. | :12:23. | |
were ahead for nine minutes. Richards thought he got the Gas off | :12:23. | :12:33. | |
:12:33. | :12:37. | ||
the hook. It seemed he had until up parked new rival Parkin. A debut to | :12:37. | :12:45. | |
remember. Rovers could have grabbed a point at the end. Richards denied | :12:45. | :12:54. | |
by the keeper, with Coles object on the line to clear from O'Toole to | :12:54. | :12:59. | |
blunder the points. Dagenham survived last season on goal | :12:59. | :13:05. | |
difference. They were two down inside 10 minutes at Fleetwood. | :13:05. | :13:11. | |
Roberts buried the opener. Jeff Hughes, one of nine new signings, | :13:11. | :13:19. | |
doubled the lead. 2 0 league goals, he could run amok at this level. The | :13:19. | :13:23. | |
Daggers lost their final three games last season without scoring. | :13:23. | :13:26. | |
Republic of Ireland Under-21 international Rhys Murphy put them | :13:26. | :13:33. | |
back in the game after excellent work. Fleetwood needed to score | :13:33. | :13:38. | |
again. It was another of their new men, Ryan Cresswell who put the game | :13:38. | :13:44. | |
beyond Dagenham's reach. Home form was not the best last season, but | :13:44. | :13:49. | |
Evans nearly made the margin more convincing for Fleetwood late on. | :13:49. | :13:59. | |
:13:59. | :14:12. | ||
They could be promotion contenders opportunity. He had previously been | :14:12. | :14:22. | |
:14:22. | :14:23. | ||
sidelined for 17 months. Daniel Bentley was perfectly positioned to | :14:23. | :14:31. | |
save this from Rueben Reid. This pair were haunted by relegation for | :14:31. | :14:41. | |
:14:41. | :14:41. | ||
much of last season. Not much of the way of chances for is not Harry Pell | :14:41. | :14:49. | |
let rip from out that the penalty area. With two minutes left, one to | :14:49. | :14:59. | |
:14:59. | :15:01. | ||
zero. Later, there was nothing faulty about this. Enough to earn a | :15:01. | :15:11. | |
:15:11. | :15:14. | ||
point apiece. Paris Cowan-Hall's only goal since | :15:14. | :15:16. | |
November had been the winner for more come against Plymouth. He | :15:16. | :15:23. | |
produced the goods again, for new club would come. They hang on - - | :15:23. | :15:33. | |
their: After Chris McCready went close to an equaliser. Aidy | :15:33. | :15:43. | |
:15:43. | :15:44. | ||
Boothroyd believes his side has a nice mix of age and experience. | :15:44. | :15:53. | |
Darren Carter's debut ended prematurely. His challenge to Ryan | :15:53. | :16:03. | |
:16:03. | :16:04. | ||
prematurely. His challenge to Ryan Jarvis prompted a yellow card. What | :16:04. | :16:14. | |
:16:14. | :16:14. | ||
a great start the season York. managed to stay off relegation. He | :16:15. | :16:21. | |
has had time to work with the players. I thought that was an | :16:21. | :16:31. | |
:16:31. | :16:38. | ||
excellent result today. Let's round-up. What do you think of that? | :16:38. | :16:44. | |
Portsmouth have to be pressured into getting promotion. They should be at | :16:44. | :16:49. | |
least in the championship. Bristol Rovers, it would be nice to see | :16:49. | :16:59. | |
:16:59. | :17:02. | ||
them. I would like to see the Bristol derby again, living local. | :17:02. | :17:08. | |
And then you have got Dagenham and Acklington, who are perennial | :17:08. | :17:16. | |
favourites to go down. We have two young managers in there, with tough | :17:16. | :17:26. | |
:17:26. | :17:32. | ||
job to do, but they will learn very quickly. OK. That is it from us. We | :17:32. | :17:37. | |
are up and running. The football comes thick and fast from here on | :17:37. | :17:42. | |
in. We have the drum of cup football on Wednesday night, but the first | :17:42. | :17:45. |
