Looks like Stephen was left back.

**tetsujin1979** · 12/08/2008, 9:45 PM

Does that mean Kelly was right full?
No sign of Doyle either

<EDIT>
Acording to the clockwatch on the official site - http://www.readingfc.premiumtv.co.uk...364557,00.html - Kelly was right full, I thought he was left footed

Last night an ITV reporter described Southamptons goalscorer as "Irishman McGoldrick".
Seemed to remember reading that this is not the case on here a while back?

Richie Partridge was playing for Chester V Leeds in main highlights game.
They mentioned he is Michael Owens brother in law which is looking like will be his main claim to fame.

I don't think he is, eirebhoy posted a pic of him before, but I can't find the post
He's an online profile of him: http://www.saintsfc.co.uk/team/?page...7&player_id=37
Don't think he's Eddie's son!

In Martin Rowlands' absence (serving a suspension) Damien Delaney donned the captain's armband for QPR last night, and played a captain's role by scoring the winning goal as QPR fought back from a 2-1 half-time deficit at Swindon to win 3-2. Should be a good confidence boost for him.

More importatly Keith Treacy got 15 mins on the pitch, however Jon Douglas was getting games for Blackburn at his age too and now he's two divisions lower at leeds.

Unfortunately Joey O'Brien has started the season at RB.

Gibson on the bench for united.

Duff playing up 'front' with Martins i think. Hope he impresses. Off to watch it now. Gluck

O'Shea on the bench too

According to Sky Sports shiney new ScoreCentre - http://live.skysports.com/ScoreCentre/live.html - Duff is playing behind Martins

**irishultra** · 17/08/2008, 6:11 PM

Duff was good today but not dynamic at all.
