I spent a good 5 minutes checking the Sky Sports and ESPN schedules for todays game but it turns out it is actually on STV.

Tidy finish from Torres there. Been a decent game for a glorified friendly but WTF is that Man City kit all about.

Ivanovic sent off, 3 game ban to start the season

I agree but I see Ivanovic has not been banned for the start of the season.

 

Does this give free rein for 'leg breaking' tackles in future Community Shields then?
