Jeff Stelling to leave Sky Sports Soccer Saturday after more than 25 years. Jeff Stelling has confirmed he will leave Soccer Saturday at the end of the season after more than 25 years presenting the show.

Just seen this today.

Shame, thought he was brilliant on Soccer Saturday.

Over the years whilst following Manchester United I have always shown an interest in the lower leagues.

So a few good and sad happenings this week :

1. Wrexham are back in League football.
2. Rochdale are dropping out of the football league for the first time in 100 years. They will play in the National League next season.
3. Both Sc**thorpe and Torquay are looking like dropping out of the National League and going into lower leagues.

All if these teams have recent history in League Football but fell into decline. 

Such is football in the lower leagues.

Thanks Bournemouth and Aston Villa for yesterday's results.

Maybe you did Man United a great favour.👍👍.

We need to capitalise on that today away to Notts Forest.

So two home wins in a row and we're 4th.

Casmiro suspension finished. Good news.

But Rashford injury looks worrying.

So many games coming thick and fast at this time in the season.

OK. So we scraped through to the FA Cup semi final.

Play Brighton next at Wembley.

Winner likely to be playing Man City who should beat Sheff United.

Brighton are a really decent side doing very well in the Prem so taking nothing for granted.

Manchester United 4 Real Betis 1.

Was nervous about how this game might go so very happy to wake up to this result.

Some redemption after last weekends shambles.

Pat,I'm in shock,and even though Liverpool were at home,I still thought United were going to win...as I said in a previous comment,anything can happen in these games...I would have been happy with a draw before that game,as I was expecting Liverpool to lose.

Jaysus.

I set the alarm to listen to Liverpool vs Manchester United.

I woke up and was listening on Talksport.

Then I thought as Liverpool scored and scored that I hadn't woken up at all.

That it must be a terrible nightmare I'm having.

Then I realised the reality. I was awake and it became a rude awakening.

We were slaughtered 0-7 by Liverpool.

Am really lost for words.

Fair play Liverpool and what a wake up call for the players of United.

Wouldn't like to be in United's dressing room or in the training session tomorrow.

By the sounds of it a lot of United players didn't turn up and just gave in towards the end. 

I know you get blips like this in a season but seriously 0-7 to one of your greatest rivals is just not acceptable.

Big game tonight (actually Monday morning here).

Liverpool vs Manchester United.

Well no guesses who I'm supporting 😍.

Regardless of what happens tonight Arsenal and Man City are still leading the pack with little sign of falling apart. 😔😔

Another win for Manchester United 👏 👏👏

3-1 against West Ham in the FA Cup. We left it late though.

Into the quarter finals and home game against Fulham.

So it's been a great few days for us.

Interesting statistic from yesterday's fame.

There was an interesting coincidence regarding the two scorers for the Reds as they wore the same shirt numbers (18 and 10) as the marksmen in the 1999 FA Cup final, the last time the two clubs met at Wembley. Teddy Sheringham (10) and Paul Scholes (18) found the net on that occasion, en route to the Treble.

Well done Man U - saw the match live, the result was well-deserved. And Spurs beat Chelsea...
