    Westwood didn't have much to do but looked the part nonetheless. It's just a body language thing (which Stockdale lacked) and he and Randolph both have it.

    So, barring some really impressive comebacks, it's looks like we're going to have:


    Championship: Sheffield Wednesday* v Hull City


    League 1: Barnsley v Millwall


    League 2: Both ties very much in the balance (Wimbledon 1-0 Accrington / Plymouth 1-0 Portsmouth)


    Conference: Grimsby promoted after beating Forest Green 3-1. Have we anybody playing with them?


    (*Sorry OwlsFan)

    30 goals for Padraig Amond, and Pat Hoban ended the season there on loan from Oxford.

    Plymouth v Portsmouth isn't really in the balance - the 1-0 win was the second leg!

    It was a 2-2 draw in the first leg, so Plymouth advance.

    Carl McHugh (ex Dundalk) is with Plymouth. Enda Stevens (ex UCD and Pat's), Brian Murphy (ex Bohs), Michael Doyle (one senior cap in 2006 - can't remember it at all tbh) and Conor Wilkinson (current U-21 international) all knocked out.

    I'm finding it very difficult to keep up with all these playoff matches! Hibs were eventually eliminated in Scotland though, even if I did get there too early!

    Conor Henderson was on the bench too, and goalkeeper James McKeown played u19 for us.

    He'll be a lot busier tonight that much I can guarantee.

    If he has a bad game he'll be available for the Dutch game. But if he has a bad game he won't be picked for the Dutch game!

    Owls 2-0 up from the first leg. Chris Hughton says: "If we win by two or more goals, then we have a chance of getting to the final". http://www.rte.ie/sport/soccer/2016/...l-set-to-take/

    Yes, excellent chance especially if they win by 3 !!

    Wednesday rattled here. Westwood already beaten from a free kick but saved by the post.

    Westy was a bit sloppy getting down to that one at his near post and spilled it.

    not watching as im at work but the bbc text updates suggest that Westwood is having a blinder.

    I'm just in the door so I can only report on what I see, not past history
    Westwood didn't command his area there at that free kick, came off his line with a weak effort to punch the ball but missed.

    He's certainly been busy. No worldies or anything but has dealt with everything comfortably enough. His kickouts have been poor though, I thought that was one of his strong points.

    Stockdale with the save of the game so far, at the end of the first half. Brighton running out of ideas with about 15 minutes to go. Wednesday defending for most of the game
    All goals, yellow and red cards tweeted in real time on mastodon, BlueSky and facebook

    Sounds like all the good stuff happened in the first half, the 2nd half is just hectic, hardly a decent effort on goal.
    Based on the 2nd half, Wednesday are fully deserved to hold on to their advantage.

    Good save by Stockdale alright but he was poor for the goal, even despite the push and not very inspiring in either keg. I think Westwoo has done well to come through bodies just to get anything on the ball at times. Two good saves, but saves you'd expect him to make. The goal was an excellent delivery that got a slight nick on the way through. He's had a decent game, not a blinder

    BBC - picture of Westwood and the words "Is there any way past this man?"
