I watched a bit of Brentford vs Oldham last night to see how Jay Tabb was getting on. Marc Tierney, Paul's brother, came on as 74th minute sub for Oldham, which prompted the obvious question: where is Paul these days?
Joe Murphy was justifiably MOTM for Walsall on Saturday. He made two outstanding saves which I saw on TV.

11-a-side says Darren Potter could be on his way to Hearts.
He's out with a back injury for the next 2 months according to today's Indo, so the move won't happen until the summer at least. He picked the injury up in a reserve game a week or 2 ago.
The travelling party was already shorn of Darren Potter, who is out for two months with a back injury, but youngsters David Raven and Danny O'Donnell were left on Merseyside as Benitez sticks with his tried and trusted squad.
heres an interview from the ''bluearmy'' site from today, with the leicester manager, about Paddy McCarthys suspension and tipping Alan Sheehan for a start at the weekend
Plug that gap!
by Bill Anderson
Leicester City will again try to plug the defensive gap left by the suspended Patrick McCarthy when they face Crewe at the Walkers Stadium on Saturday.
In another back-four reshuffle, Nissa Johansson is set to return in central defence with Alan Maybury reverting to his preferred right-back role and Alan Sheehan on the left.
Boss Craig Levein admits it has been a struggle to make up for the absence of McCarthy - "the best defender at the club" - and revealed his plans for the Crewe match to mark a return to winning ways.
Levein said: "We had been defending well but at Stoke last week it was the worst we had done at the back for a long time.
"McCarthy is, in my opinion, the best defender at the club, but it is his own fault he has been banned and we saw how much he was missed at Stoke.
"We need to do something different for the Crewe game because the rest of the team is all right. Rab Douglas is solid in goal, the midfield and strikers are doing well and I see no reason to change that.
"We have shown we can get goals but we need to stop them again. With Maybury at right-back and Sheehan on the left, they can both attack to support the others because, against Crewe, we should have more possession than we have had in the recent away games."
Johansson and Sheehan both featured in a closed-door friendly against Boston United yesterday and Australian trialist Joel Griffiths did his chances no harm at all by notching the only goal of the game.
Ipswich have been rocked by a fresh injury blow that further restricts boss Joe Royle's attacking options for the trip to Sheffield Wednesday.
Teenage striker Billy Clarke, who made his first senior start in last week's 2-2 home draw with QPR, dislocated his elbow in action for the reserves at Portsmouth on Wednesday.
Republic of Ireland youth international Clarke, who was 18 on Tuesday, joins long-term injury victim Sam Parkin (broken ankle) on the Portman Road casualty list.

Ireland U21 International Kevin Doyle guaranteed the points for Reading at the new Den this afternoon.
Doyle supplied the pass for Reading's opener in the 40th minute when he lifted the ball into the path of Sidwell, who smashed in a right-footed volley that gave 'keeper Colin Doyle no chance.
The Irishman then earned the Royals a penalty in the 43th minute when Craig was shown the red card for bringing down Doyle inside the penalty area, but Kitson saw his kick saved by Colin Doyle before Paul Robinson produced a superb tackle to prevent Reading's top scorer netting the rebound.
The young striker capped an impressive performance when he brushed past a weak challenge from Zak Whitbread and guided the ball into the top-right corner from a difficult angle seven yards from goal.
Reading are now 6 points clear at the top of the championship.

Yep, and he'll be playing against Man U in the next round
Life without Rovers, it makes no sense...it's a heartache...nothing but a fools game. S.R.F.C.
Duff went off at half time against Wigan because of an achilles injury and misses today's match with the injury.
Extract from the Guardian:
"Millwall's second half began with calamity as defender Tony Craig was sent off for a poor challenge on Doyle in the penalty area - their ninth sending-off in the league this season. The resulting penalty, taken by Dave Kitson, was improbably saved by keeper Colin Doyle, on loan from Birmingham and something of a star yesterday afternoon as he worked hard to limit the damage."
We all know about Kevin by now but good to see Colin Doyle do well on loan at Millwall.
Colin Doyle has been recalled from his loan at Milwall by Birmingham following Vaesen's sending off against Man City.
Which shouldn't bother Millwall too much as, according to The Times, Craig Doyle actually played in goals for them on Saturday. Very versatile that chap.
oops!
leicester v crewe 1-1
Maybury played the whole match and did fine,he had a shot narrowly clear the crossbar in the first half.Sheehan was finally given his turn in the problem left-back position, where 6/7 players have been tried so far this season and he wound up walking for 2 yellow cards for needless fouls commited high up the pitch with his side in no immediate danger.there had been a lot of calls for him being included over here but the manager was reluctant due to his lack of experience, as he has come from academy u17 to first team in about 6 months, and was proved right on this.he also didnt do enough to cut out the cross for crewes opener when his winger forced past him way too easily. but is wasnt all bad by him, his passing was good and accurate and he won a corner from a set piece free-kick he took. it will be interesting to see when he gets his next chance.
Luke Rodgers came on late for crewe, wasnt he linked with us a while back?
