Season 24 Week 12 processing ...

and now back to Ian St John at Real Madrid...

shock news...

I've had better days....

Whilst the boss is out cutting the grass Celta have equalised through a Keisuke Honda penalty to make it

Real Madrid 1 Celta 1

on 42 minutes.

Estudiantes 0 Boca 2 Fernandez shot on 43 minutes.

and just to compound Real's concern i'm hearing that Pedro has made it

Barcelona 2 Sevilla 0

after 43 minutes with a fine shot.

and the first goal of the day at Leicester where Darren Fletcher is keeping an eye on things for us...

Come on lads, in the last 40 minutes, I have cut the grass, fed the lawn, sprayed and weeded the drive, swept the drive and patio and cleaned the lawn mower. And all you have done is conceded a goal. Not good enough!! Productivity !!!

a huge traffic jam meant the Leicester Boss arrived late for this game but his side started well but then so too did the Gunners and it is Theo Walcott who has grabbed the opening goal here to make it

Leicester 0 Arsenal 1

on 44 minutes, but still a lot to play for here.

and back to David Coleman in Italy...

what a goal we've seen here from Seb Giovinco who makes it

Cagliari 1 Ancona 1

right on the stroke of halftime.

and that's it for the first forty five minutes...

I'm off for a bevy and will return after these short messages from our sponsors...

"For all your gardening needs, come to Kent, come to the garden of England, come to Iains"

Ffs

okay straight back into the fray as the second half gets underway...

and we have a fourth goal almost immediately from the kickoff at Home Park, so over to you Mike Ingham...

well it is a long way back from three nil down but City are attempting to climb that particular mountain early in the second half following a stunning goal from Robinho that makes it

Plymouth 3 Man City 1

on 46 minutes.

and still not much of a return from World Record signing Edin Dzeko...

and talking of World Record transfers I'm hearing news that Juventus have just agreed to buy Mario Balotelli from Fulham for £75million ...

and on that bombshell we have to travel to Hamburg where the home side entertain the Bundesliga Champions and are watched by Steve May, come in Steve...

Come on Charlton, Nantes! Two bogey teams in one week is never good.

it's been quite a tough season for Schalke and they are struggling by their standards and even more so in this particular game as Niko Kranjcar has fire the home side into the lead on 46 minutes to make it

Hamburg 1 Schalke 0

He-he
