Lamela looking the dogs atm. Confidence player or what.

 

[caLLous]

He's looking the best he's looked for us, no doubt about it. Long may it continue!

hmmm. Despite having BT sport as part of my broadband deal I think this is a really bad idea. Surely it massively restricts who will be watching (legal) champions league football coverage? I'm not sure what the sub is for BT sport if you pay for it but will people pay an extra £10 a month (Or whatever) for champions league football?

 

[caLLous]

Motherfucker. I forgot about FF this week. I have no idea what team I'm playing.

People had a fairly good idea it wasn't going to be on terrestrial TV any more.

Nope. I pay enough for Sky Sports as it is. ITV and Sky seem to think that BT paid way over the odds for CL coverage (but I guess they would say that).

And somebody should compile a list of the world-class talent that United *could* have signed. It turns out they turned Ozil down too. Unless it's mindgames, really really bad mindgames.

It's a bit of a pain - BT don't do a daily pass thing like Sky either as yet.

I suspect it might be something they'll offer once their platform has matured enough.

Could it be a rights issue though?

 

[caLLous]

Sucks for West Brom, didn't sound like a pen at all.

 

[MrBic]

cheap penalty. ref seemed to stand in a good position aswell

 

[Shagrat]

West brom robbed of a win there

I get it free with virgin media so doesn't bother me.

Really? What package?

 

[caLLous]

Never a pen for Chelsea. It wasn't a dive (although he does throw himself into the defender) but it certainly wasn't a pen.

 

[Raven]

Not even close to being a pen.

 

[Moriath]

Really? What package?

XL tv with sky sports and movies added and you get bt sport channels free

 

[rynnor]

Isn't he just blocking the run rather than trying to get the ball though?

 

[Raven]

He is running in a straight line, the weakling forward throws himself at him and falls over. Very continental.

 

[Ch3tan]

You get it free with xl tv alone, don't need the sky bits.

 

[Olgaline]

The Danish Liga atm..


Notice that it's no more than 4 pts from 11'th to 3'rd place, crazy

 

[Scouse]

Another win. Lollerpool looking OK by the sounds of it.

Still. We've had an easy run of it so far. Once we meet the big boys I can't see us doing very well - unless we keep all our best players fit.

With Sturridge and Saurez fit you have a good chance against anyone tbh.

Not so sure about Sturridge. I'd like to see us sign another top top quality striker and then the 3 of them can duke it out.

I think he's a great player. Once he has that season where he bangs in 20 goals in the prem I think he will do it every year.

I think he's very very good. Not great.

 

[Embattle]

Do find the recent sort of predator nature of Eto'o goals funny.

You don't need either of the Sky Sports/Movies channels to get BT Sports, you only need the XL package
