What other live scores are updated on the club's Match Centre web site?

The WSL game was earlier. Compare these two screen shots one from the club website, one from the Sky Sports Football app. They are identical (apart from the order) which shows they come from the same central source.

OK, cheers - see my post 1601 just above yours!
I think there was some confusion in the semi recent past too with the BBC showing a wrong formation, with players all out of position, and me explaining that again this is all centralised and guesswork - very likely AI driven - from a central source which companies simply pay to have access to, same as the live text.

For example sometimes it’ll show Dunk in midfield or would show Groß up front or something. I imagine it’s all off-shore.

The live text feed is very probably the same or similar to those used by bookies.

Sports Data collection isn’t advanced enough yet that it’s AI driven, but when you see players in completely the wrong positions it’s usually a novice data collector just getting it wrong.

The live text commentary is programmatic with predefined text templates based on the events collected by the data collector. It’s weird though that they’d have logic to assume any sub made in the first half is through injury though.

He played 25 minutes for U21s today - so it's pretty unlikely!
I wonder if he’ll be on the bench so he can get a welcome back from the fans when he appears out of the tunnel? Maybe even 5 minutes at the end ?

Lovely to see a few words from Solly after his 25 mins on the latest unlocked. "Good, felt decent, it's a start. Almost there". First team minutes hopefully not far away.

Such a positive character. Despite three (was it?) long term injuries.

Love him.

Anyone heard any more about Solly's recovery and comeback? Played for the under 21's three weeks ago and it seems to have gone very quiet since. Fabian didn't say anything about him this morning either as far as I can see?

He did speak about Solly

Basically saying we had to be patient
