Duff not playing today for personal reasons.
Jeff Hendrick just scored again, this time vs Millwall
Cian Bolger scored his first senior goal today for Bristol Rovers
Just seen Cillian Sheridan bagged a brace for St. Johnstone, those would be his first goals in a long time
Stephen Ireland back in the Aston Villa team today v QPR
Rene Gilmartin makes his first Championship start for Watford tonight
Shaun Williams with his first goal for MK Dons with a penalty against Bury...very Irish side with Clinton Morrison, Darren Potter, and Stephen Gleeson all starting, U21 keeper Ian McLoughlin on the bench for them as well.
Lee Frecklington with two goals for Peterborough already as well, Kearns on the bench for them.
Chris McCann got the third of the night for Burnley against Forest, with Andy Reid starting for the visitors
Gary Deegan scored for Coventry.
Cork teenager Eric Grimes got on in a behind closed doors friendly win for Leeds United over Boro last night
Fatty and Doyle start for Birmingham, Rooney on the bench. Fatty apparently playing a more holding role according to the lineup diagram.
Nice save by Doyle in the 18th minute, haven't really seen Fahey at all so far.
Stream died right before Maribor scored, commentators saying Doyle at fault and that it was calamitous
EDIT: OK, just saw it, Spector through him a bit of a grenade with a relatively hard hit, bouncing back pass from the right channel, Doyle swings at and misses the ball and the Maribor player has an open net. I'd agree Doyle was at fault.
"Oh dear. This is a total shocker by Blues keeper Colin Doyle, who takes a wild swipe at Jonathan Spector's backpass... and misses it completely. Dalibor Volas, chasing the ball down, cannot believe his luck, and strokes the ball into an empty net. It wasn't the greatest back-pass in the world, but Doyle made a right old mess of it." BBC Sport
His kicking seems to leave him down badly. It was the one aspect of his game that City fans constantly berated him for, even when he was going well in the first team. I really thought this would have been one of the strongest aspects of his game considering he was an accomplished Gaelic footballer and played outfield for years before he made the move across the water
Delap starts for Stoke against Besiktas, Walters, Whelan, and Wilson all on the bench. Rustu in goal for Besiktas.
Walters scored the winning goal v Besiktas from the penalty spot.
Pilkington just missed an opener for Norwich against Man Utd. Dispossessed Valencia on the edge of the box but pushed his shot wide. And Anderson went straight down the other end and scored for Man U.
First goal since April 20th, 2010 today for Tadhg Purcell.
Where was Joey O'Brien today?
According to the Daily Star, Harry Arter who just recently signed a new contract at Bournemouth, is being looked at by Watford and Cardiff.
Watford's Tommy Hoban linked with Man City and Arsenal

Breaking News:
Billy Mehmet unearths Fijian passport...
Meyler and McLean played the 90 for Sunderland Reserves against Wigan Reserves last week.
Gleeson, Clint, and Potter playing right now for MK Dons vs Oldham, Shaun Williams on the bench...boring match so far.

OK so maybe it doesn't really count but former Ireland U17 Kieran Murtagh scored the 10th goal for Antigua and Barbuda in their 10-0 win over the US Virgin Islands in World Cup Qualifying on Tuesday.
Billy Clarke is going on loan to Sheffield Utd.
Anyone else see the Doncaster-Leeds match tonight? O'Dea, White, and Keogh all played the 90 for Leeds. Doncaster really did not offer much at all and were overrun for most the match. O'Dea dealt with everything that was thrown at him pretty well. I'd only seen White play once before and it was before he declared for us so I didn't pay attention. He was fine tonight, had the experienced Danny Pugh in front of him though and didn't have much to do, but didn't do much wrong. Didn't really get forward as much as he could have from left back though. Seems to be quite short as well. Keogh was very erratic, had a couple of spells where he did OK but was not very involved despite Leeds' dominance. Did very well to get in behind the defense and hold off his man in the 82nd minute but his shot came back off the bar.
Josh O'Keefe also scored with a header for Lincoln in their 3-1 loss to Fleetwood.
Anthony Pilkington scored twice for Norwich v Swansea. Trapattoni are you watching?
Delap is to SkStu as David Connolly is to Worm2345.
And he scored for Stoke today - Nice one Rory.
Jamie O’Hara has turned down the chance to join Ireland’s Euro 2012 adventure.
The Wolves ace has not given up hope of playing for England and is sticking to his guns – even though boss Mick McCarthy has told him to make himself available for the Republic.
O’Hara, 25, insisted: “I’ve played for England at every level except the senior side.
“It’s always been my ambition to win a full cap and that hasn’t changed. I have a massive Irish family on dad’s side – I’m probably more Irish than English. But it would be unfair on the Irish players if I changed countries and it would raise a few eyebrows. I wouldn’t want that sort of attention.”

actually, fair play to him for coming out and saying that.
