What’s the threshold for a loss to be described as a spanking?

Chris Sutton with a lovely “in and around” at 14:30 on 5 Live Sport. “The games they’ve won this season have been teams in and around them”

@footballcliches.bsky.social not sure I’m having Sports Report’s headline of “10 man Manchester City come from behind twice to draw at Palace”, when the sending off happened after all goals had been scored. Feels like this has an implied sequencing that’s out of kilter

@footballcliches.bsky.social Jon Champion accidentally referring to United’s line-up as a “teamshite” a couple of minutes before kick-off is surely the most unfortunate but equally amusing slip from a very good commentator!

@footballcliches.bsky.social - Steve Cooper describing “this game, in particular, was live” because of the 12:30 kick-off. What are the “most live” and “least live” kick off times?

17:25 on sports report!
