  • What's the best US channel to find live games on? I have Fox Soccernet but it seems like those games are always a few days old.

    I watch them on FSC and Setanta but most times I go to the bar and watch it there. Try finding a bar in your area that shows the games. What team do you follow?

    I can't wait!

    As dumb as this sounds, I miss my Saturday morning tradition of waking up early, making a pot of coffee and watching the Liverpool game! :D


    Build a bonfire,
    Build a bonfire,
    Put the Scousers on the top,
    Put City in the middle,
    And we'll burn the f*cking lot

    SORRY I can't help myself did the same thing to my Brother-in-law

    I'm an Arsenal Fan. There are some pubs that should have the games on. I just need to find the US TV schedule.

    So, the first round of games didn't disappoint. I love how fast the games are and there isn't much bs'ing around (unlike other leagues).

    Gearing up for the second day! I wanna see how ManUtd does without Ronaldo... hopefully Rooney will pick up the slack. And Tevez is awesome!

    Try this site. It's for the NYC area but maybe they can direct you to one in your neck of the woods who can help you. Good luck!

    He hasn't in a loooooong time, at least not for ManU.
    No longer overwhelmed it seems so simple now.
  • How about those Tigers of Hull City?? First a huge upset at the Emirates, then a solid win on the road against Spurs. Spurs will be relegated and Hull will make the Champions League. LOL!! :)

    They are playing to win. Not that 10 men behind the ball and hope for a tie crap. They will finish middle of the table.

    See...it's all shaping up a little more all of a sudden. I can hear the Liverpool fans suddenly taking deeper breaths than they were a week ago ;) soon your bums are gonna be twitching more than a nervous wreck in a room full of fleas :D

    ...hats off to Tottenham Hotspur and Harry Redknapp, a week certainly is a long time in football.
    I came, I saw, I concurred.....

    Torres should be back by next weekend, the chances will be taken and they'll be a force with him and Gerrard. Sad to say, but this could be Chelsea's season, what with the likes of Drogba & Essien absent and still bloiwng away the opposition.

    Harry's bubble will burst soon and typical Spurs mediocrity will resume. Shame on the team! couldn't buy a win under Ramos this season yet excellent performances under Harry. Having a problem with the management team is fine but they shoulda been playing for the fans and their exorbaitant wages. Gits!

    Chelsea look unstoppable against the rubbish, so far they have dropped points against anyone decent.
    And as for Spurs bubble bursting....I've been sayin that about Liverpool all season ;) the luck had to run out sooner or later :D I'm sure the players wanted to do well all along, just shows what difference a manager can make.
    Anyway, it's shaping up nice, and don't forget barely a quarter of the season played is all :)
    I see United coming with a typical strong run to piss you all off :D other than that it's between Chelski and Luckypool. :)

    But Liverpool have a strong first team, it's just the moment the likes of Torres, Gerrard, and to a lesser extent Mascherano, Babel and Keane are absent for a while it'll be felt, especially with the champs lge agenda. From now thru till January will tell -if they can stay the pace with other two. I hope they can, but Benitez never brought in a top-level winger over the summer like he should have, Riera,,,,,I dunno about him really. I heard it was Carraghers 3rd og against Spurs.

    and yeah, Utd will be only 2pts off leaders if they win their game in hand. Think Tevez is better than Berbatov and should be starting.

    The Scousers will all be crying at the end of the season. Correction before the end - it will be lost before then.

    Pfft!... Not a chance! (although we have got our bogey team this weekend... Bolton! :o )
    ...London Doesn't Call Anymore... (rip joe)

    Yes, I have been to some Pearl Jam concerts. Several of them.

    Bolton will hopefully bore the redsh*tes into submission and nick a late winner.

    Spurs beat Liverpool to progress in Carling Cup.

    This is just the start.

  • Not surprised to see Mourinho get sacked. Players should share as much responsibility as he does for this mess of a season. Some of the play by these guys has been absolutely embarrassing. Amazing that things could go so poorly after completely dominating the league last year.
