Open Get involved
All times stated are British Summer Time (BST)
Iain, Tyneside: Newcastle need stability, no more protests or manager sackings. We are on a very bad run but should give Pardew the chance to buy in the summer.
15:30
GREAT SAVE! Newcastle 1-0 Cardiff
That's why Manchester United bought him! Wilfried Zaha turns the full-back inside out and drives into the area where his low shot is saved by the feet of Tim Krul. The Bluebirds somehow need to find a goal because, with Sunderland's goal at Old Trafford, they are now heading for relegation if the scorelines remain the same.
15:29
GOAL Man Utd 0-1 Sunderland - Seb Larsson (30 mins)
Maybe it wasn't all David Moyes' fault eh? Sunderland take the lead through more fine play from wrecking ball Connor Wickham. He holds off Darren Fletcher in the corner before picking out Seb Larsson with a cracking ball which the Swede steers into the bottom corner.

We're asking which fictional television character you'd like to see manage your team.
Tim: (external) David Brent. Team morale would be sky high!
Jacob: (external) Jack Bauer would surely be first choice, he would scare the life into players and in this sacking culture, he is invincible!
Gary: (external) Man Utd could certainly use Gene Hunt. Imagine his team talks would put the Fergie hairdryer to shame.
15:27
GOAL Aston Villa 1-1 Hull City - Jordan Bowery OG (28 mins)
A very clever free-kick gives Hull an equaliser. Tom Huddlestone lines up for the shot but instead clips a reverse pass under the wall and into Liam Rosenior's run on the left. He crosses low and it flicks in off the heels of sub Jordan Bowery.
15:26
European football Barcelona 1-0 Getafe
Who else but Lionel Messi? The little Argentine converts Dani Alves's cross to give Barcelona the lead in their must-win game against Getafe. Victory would cut the four-point gap on leaders Atletico, who visit Levante on Sunday.
Man Utd 0-0 Sunderland
BBC Sport's Simon Stone at Old Trafford: "Interestingly, whilst Gus Poyet spends long periods in his technical area, often with his arms folded, just observing, Ryan Giggs restricts himself to occasional visit to offer instructions, most recently to Phil Jones."
15:23
Stoke 0-0 Fulham
So slack at the back from Fulham! They give the ball straight to Steven Ireland 25 yards out and the Stoke midfielder hits a shot which is going wide -but David Stockdale makes the save anyway. Not the time to be so casual...
15:23
SUBSTITUTION Aston Villa 1-0 Hull City
Gabriel Agbonlahor set up Villa's first-minute goal but he's not looked right ever since and he is now coming off, Jordan Bowery comes on to replace him.
15:23
HITS THE WOODWORK Newcastle 1-0 Cardiff
Cardiff are on the ropes and it's Moussa Sissoko doing most of the punching as he laces from the edge of the area but it's deflected onto the post by Aron Gunnarsson.
Man Utd 0-0 Sunderland
"Manchester United have been very happy to have possession but there has been no tempo to it at all. Sunderland will be very happy with how Manchester United have come out, the tempo will very much suit them."
Newcastle 1-0 Cardiff
Former Everton midfielder Kevin Kilbane on Final Score
"A great ball in from Sissoko, he takes the ball out of his feet with one touch and crosses it right in behind the Cardiff defence. It's a nice header from Ameobi - a striker's goal."
15:17
GOAL Newcastle 1-0 Cardiff - Shola Ameobi (18 mins)
It's been coming. Newcastle have had the better of the early stages and they go into the lead when Moussa Sissoko's cross to the back stick is headed home by the unmarked Shola Ameobi. Remember, if Cardiff lose today and any of Sunderland, Norwich or Fulham win this weekend, the Bluebirds will be relegated.

We're asking which fictional television character you'd like to see manage your team.
Niall: (external) Del Boy would be a good Harry Redknapp stand in. Especially in the transfer market.
Harry: (external) Tony Soprano. Has experience as 'the boss'. Plus players would be scared to lose, and the opposition would be scared to win!
Charlie: (external) Surely you can't look past Mike Bassett?! You'd know exactly what formation you'd be playing!
15:16
CLOSE! Man Utd 0-0 Sunderland
Almost a nightmare own goal from John O'Shea, the ex-Manchester United man slicing a clearance just past the far post. The home side continue to press, with Nani whistling just over the top moments later.
15:15
Stoke 0-0 Fulham
Darren Bent has been given a rare start for Fulham this afternoon and he makes a quick break away down the left. He has no support at all though and his attack peters out. The Potters then put together a neat move at the other end, wit Peter Odemwingie drilling wide from 20 yards.
15:15
Swansea 0-0 Southampton
It's all Saints at the moment - no pun intended - and Morgan Schneiderlin should do better with a free header from 12 yards out. The visitors have had 65% possession so far as Swansea chase shadows.
Man Utd 0-0 Sunderland
Former Blackburn Rovers striker Jason Roberts on Final Score
"Gus Poyet has done a really good job at Sunderland. He was left a divided dressing room by Paulo Di Canio so huge credit to him for turning things around. I've been really impressed with the transformation of Connor Wickham - Poyet has given him that confidence, and he has scored five goals in his last three games.
"In terms of today's match, Sunderland have performed against the big teams this season so let us see what they can do today. They've got a chance."
PLAYER REACTION West Ham 2-0 Tottenham
West Ham striker Andy Carroll, speaking to BT Sport: "I've had a tough season getting fit and staying fit but I am feeling strong now.
"Sam Allardyce is a great manager. He has trusted me and played me when I've not been 100% fit. He has a lot of faith in me, I respect that and have to give it my all when I go out on to the pitch. His man-management of me has been great."
15:12
Aston Villa 1-0 Hull City
Villa would be safe with a win today - and they are well on the way. It's been an impressive start from the hosts, who are on top.
15:11
Newcastle 0-0 Cardiff
Did you know that if the Premier League season had started on 27 December, Newcastle would be bottom of the table? Alan Pardew's men are on a shocking run of form but they are playing quite so well far - snapping into the tackle and looking assured in possession.
We've been asking you to grade your team's performance for this season from A-D, and let us know what went wrong or what went right.
Tim: If I had to grade Man City, I think that we would grab an A. We've played good football, scored plenty, and when we face difficulties (League Cup final, etc) we do get the job done.
15:10
If anyone's panicking about booking the wrong train or anything - the FA Cup final is of course in two weeks' time, not next week. My bad.
15:09
Man Utd 0-0 Sunderland
BBC Sport's Simon Stone at Old Trafford: Plenty of room in the directors' box today, so easy to spot Roy Hodgson, who has just taken his seat. Carrick and Jones start, Welbeck on bench and Cleverley not involved.
15:05
Man Utd 0-0 Sunderland
It's been all Manchester United so far at Old Trafford, the home side stroking the ball around neatly in the spring sunshine.

We're asking which fictional television character you'd like to see manage your team.
Mark: (external) I can't think of many fictional characters I'd want to manage my team but manage other teams yes! Father Ted? Captain Mainwaring?
Jack: (external) For Arsenal I'd have Sherlock Holmes. Would work out quickly and efficiently the best way to defeat an opponent.
Drew: (external) Alan Partridge, end of discussion.
15:07
Newcastle 0-0 Cardiff
Better from Cardiff as Tim Krul fails to collect Fabio's deep cross and the ball balls to Fraizer Campbell but the striker's effort goes wide.
15:05
Swansea 0-0 Southampton
A great early chance for Swansea when Steven Davis gives the ball away and Pablo Hernandez, after good work from Wilfried Bony and Jonjo Shelvey, sees his shot parried clear by Artur Boruc. The follow-up ends in the stands.
15:04
CLOSE! Stoke 0-0 Fulham
Fulham are fighting for their Premier League lives but they almost go behind early doors. Stoke cross in from the right, it falls at the feet of Oussama Assaidi and he blazes high over the top. Needed some composure there...
15:04
Scottish Premiership latest
We have five Premiership games today, with St Mirren, Ross County, Hibs and Partick Thistle all at risk of finishing 11th in the top flight and in the dreaded play-off place.
And what a title race in the Scottish Championship. Paul Hartley's Dundee, at home to Dumbarton this afternoon, are in the driving seat on 66 points, with Hamilton (64) and Falkirk (63) waiting to pounce if they slip up at Dens Park...
