Peanuts, mate. Especially given that the Toon were barely on Soccer Saturday. edit: Just watching Setanta now as the match with Manu from 02 is on. We're getting pasted 3-1, horseface with 2, scholes with the other. However, Bernard scored for us by first kicking it off O'Shea's face, then floating one over Barthez and in the back of the net. Can't remember the final score of this, but it's not pretty so far. edit(2): Shearer gets his 100th goal and we lose 5-3. Quite the match.

Is where I stopped reading, cause there's only one United ya knar'. Sorry Big Al. -
Whilst being surrounded by plastic Spurs and Liverpool support? No thanks. Here's a link to Setanta Canada's Schedule: http://130.94.23.190/SSCDN_live_schedule.htm They've got all our matches on until the end of November. This is better than what was on offer. Howay Setanta! You won't find many plastic fans in the Gloucestor, the others, definitely. But what to do, nothing beats a pint and footie. The Setanta Canada schedule -- how on earth do I get Setanta here? Can I order it through Rogers? How much? (Apologies if it's been mentioned here before) NM. Seems like this is only Broadband. Sucks. It's like Homer says at the beginning of the Simpsons' film: why pay for something you can get for free? DJ, you jackass, you work for Rogers!!!! CHANEL 429 IS SETANTA IF YOU HAVE DIGITAL!!! FREE TILL SEPT. 11!!!! Also, if you'd like to go and catch a match at the pub, lemme know. Tomorrow is out, but next weekend could be good. f***! 429.. . you serious? You do know you just made my day, right? And hey, I work for the Rogers Home Phone Department, you should know that we have no idea about anything other than what we've been trained in . Yeah, about the game, sounds good. I can't make it tomorrow anyways, I'm workin' all day. I'll definitely let you know about next weekend. You frequent the Gloucestor much? What are your regular watering holes? If you read my post bumping this thread you'd have known that already! Game is on at 10am, but Setanta has the repeat on later 6:30, I think. Just scan a head on your digi-box. Yeah, Duke Of G, Scalleys and there used to be a pub in The Beach where I'd congregate with some other Geordies.

I was cringing a bit reading this. I'm part to blame for kicking up this thread. Albeit, providing legal info.

Get a paper route.

Pretty much in the same situation except I live in Rhode Island...for now anyway. Still wish FSC would be a little more generous with the Mags games. We need our fix, after all. Can't get Setanta?

Setanta is now on Rogers Digital, Wellander. Channel 429, free untill Sept. 11, then a monthly charge kicks in. I think 4 of our first 5 matches are on the channel. I believe Bell picked it up as well.

We keep him around because when everybody takes the piss out of him he rises to the occasion. He'll always be a Mackem Killer and he should be starting both games against the unwashed. Howay Wor Shola!

Haha.. I'm good for one a season. That's all Baby Jeebus will allow. You sure you want me to use it now?

Yes better to have Nigel Reo-Coker sulking about having to play for you instead of Arsenal. Reo-Coker looked excellent in the friendly I saw here in Toronto. Dominated a strong TFC midfield and got the ball forward quite well. I think he'll have a great year for the Villa. -
When he predicts a loss in games like this, we usually win. Thanks Lawro, you twat!

The little ogre who grew up to be a... BIG OGRE!!!!!

Why not mic the pitch more? There's got to be a mic that has the technology to span the pitch area for recording or a multitude of microphones.

This, but I hope they drop like flies for the rest of the deluded bunch.

Dyer had that nasty gash when he ran into the advertising sign and I think his mysterious, "can't tell anyone injury" of the last couple years is truly strange.

and is the only reason I hope for him that his club stays up. Nowt that I have any say in the matter, but you're always welcome round here, SAFC. -
I agree, he will do well there. Everton have signed a good player.

He'd be in mine. That was a bloody awful team he inherited at Villa. To turn it around for a top half finish is quality work. It's a shame they finished in the bottom half then. O'neill's massively overrated, compare his record with someone like Sven and it shows him up abit. He performed a miracle to keep us up - dropped into the job a few weeks before the season, with a s*** squad, with the takeover not gone through (and which didn't go through until after the window closed) so not much chance to get players in, forced to use out of contract players to boost numbers, forced to borrow Crystal Palace's third choice keeper because we didn't have a fit one at the club, and to finish 11th in a season where the club went through total change off the pitch. Incidentally, he did the above starting the season with an 11 match unbeaten run (the last team in any division to lose a game) and finishing it with a nine match unbeaten run, going through a bad patch in the middle of the season when lack of squad depth started to bite. If we'd have had a decent striker at the start of the season and a bit more squad depth, and won just a few of the many matches we drew which we should have won (West Ham away, Newcastle away, for example), he might well have got us into Europe. But no, apparently a bottom half of the table finish was a bad result, and shows he is a s*** manager doesnt it? Some people, I don't know .... Oh and incidentally, bottom half finishes ... hmmm, glass houses and whatnot! Honestly, some people around here forget how shit we were. 11th, 10th, whatever 4G, he did a job getting them there considering they were that close to relegation the season before. MON is quality and many wanted him for our club. I was gutted when he went to Villa and we ended up with Rodent. -
I'm beyond caring about the little bag of s**** at this point tbh, at least if he suffers another massive injury in that England game we'll have 8 days to replace him. Shak, you're the man. You write and I'll agree with it.

So nobody is upset that Owen will be playing in an England kit before a Newcastle one this season?
