Is there a good place to look at text commentary and live scores (not an app) ? Sky Sports Score Centre website is now app-only and it's horrendous! :(

I really hope this isn't how Utd mean to go on, an own goal win is hardly going to get the confidence up for a new set of players... Wins a win though I guess!

Getting really fed up with 'the internet' in general, how is EVERY damn website getting worse.

Football 365 destroyed it's stats beginning of last season and have removed the score centre(as it's just a link to Sky score thing). They've also made fixtures per league and really awkward and slow to see. Sky have made their fixtures/results irritating, score centre disappeared, don't want it as an app and the fixtures list hides all 'in play' scores so I have to click on every individual game to actually see the current scores which is a pain.

Espn is about the best useful website at the moment but tends to suck in firefox. Statto which was amazing for seeing general form for the season and in previous seasons has disappeared though with cryptic hints it's coming back some time. THe one place that would list all fixtures/results in a single easy to read list that wasn't spread out and trying to look fancy. Then colour code each line to win/draw/loss so you can see extremely quickly how well someone played in a particular season or the last 8 games, etc.

Every half decent website with useful, well presented stats has basically disappeared. :(

Not just football, main F1 website went to crap, other websites have also gone backwards.


EDIT:- was typing when you linked the above. whoscored looks potentially good for in game stats for sure. List of fixtures is okay but not entirely clear, though links to individual game reports which is good. Can't see historical results anywhere obvious at once glance.

How long till it too disappears.

Absolutely pathetic.

Same as last season, nothing has changed at all. It's going to be a long season if we don't get in new players.

I don't think it's new players we need. We just need him to **** off back to wigan before his transformation is complete. If he had the best four defenders the premiership had ever seen he could make them worth £6 by the time he's finished.

This is the shortest close season I can remember because I have been dreading this season. Anyone who was any good has been wrecked.
 
Not sure whether that was a decent free-kick or terrible defending from Swansea. How's a waist height free-kick managed to travel through the entire 18 yard box without any Swansea player blocking it?
 
That was a cracker of a save from Courtois. Shame his defence didn't do their job afterwards.
