Not really, it's only Milan.

Toot toot toot toot toot!

Do you not have a TV there? It's live on standard television.

For reference though, you can access all the BBC, ITV, channel 4 and channel 5 online content as you are in the UK.

Im in Scotland, you often dont get football that on ITV because it is actually STV up here (scottish branch of ITV). Can be quite irritating. Luckily you can pick up all regions BBC/ITV on sky, or just watch it on the websites. But it is an irritant if i forget to check the english channels for the matches and think "hmm guess they not showing it"

QPR are facing a points deduction. They have been charged over the transfer of Alejandro Faurlin to the club.

It's the same offence that West Ham received that £5.5m fine for, which was criticised at the time because many felt they should have had points deducted.

Hah! Didn't Warnock have kittens over that same matter too?

 

[Vasconcelos]

He never has! I keep hearing from coaches how hes the best player they have seen in training, its gotta be bollax

He scored the winning goal on 09-10 1st leg Barca-Real iirc.

 

[Vasconcelos]

Hehehe what a finding in that redcafe forum link:

YouTube - PlayerManager sent off for tackling streaker.

:lol:

Now that's a pointless comment; Arsenal were winning the game, they only had to defend their lead and that is what they set out to do. Losing RvP made it near impossible for them to hold Barca and their players got very tired. Many teams do it, it's a tactic, whether it's a well received one or not.

This says it all really

Arsenal were so bad they made history | The Sun |Sport|Football

An Opta spokesman said: "There have been 981 Champions League games since 2003-04 and Arsenal are the first of 1,962 sides not to manage a shot of any form in a match since then."

Hah! Didn't Warnock have kittens over that same matter too?

Yes he was one of the people shouting loudest that West Ham should have had a points deduction.

I suspect he probably has a different view on any punishment QPR may receive should they be found guilty however...

This is a good article from a QPR fan

And if you read the comments most seem to be expecting a points deduction.

Atletico Madrid will offer want-away strikers Sergio Aguero and Diego Forlan to Tottenham for a combined price of £40m this summer.
Full story: Metro

if that happened spuds will have a pretty sick attacking lineup

 

[megadave]

that's so incredibly made up

 

[Cerb]

I don't know hasn't Forlan already shown the premiership doesn't really suit his style?

 

[megadave]

and Athletico claims they turned down a 40m+ bid for Aguero and most "want-away" strikers haven't just signed a new long contract, such awful reporting.

 

[Vasconcelos]

I don't know hasn't Forlan already shown the premiership doesn't really suit his style?

Forlan is already getting to the last stops of his career, he might put a "Van Nistelrooy" but I hardly doubt it.

 

[leviathane]

he also said he wouldnt return to the prem again.

 

[megadave]

He's had a pretty poor season after a fantastic world cup, saw reports he might go Italy but who knows?

 

[Wazzerphuk]

Heh

 

[Vasconcelos]

Just wear a Barca shirt under the neck warmer and voila! :lol:
