    Pre Match Leicester City vs Watford Play-Off Semi Final 1st leg

    It's on Setanta, Joe. I think they have a pay as you go deal at $16.99 a month, worth it for one month perhaps? However there are times when the quality isn't much better than a stream!

    Self employment

    I was a director of my own company for the last few years and this is spot on. If you go down the Limited Company route then it can be highly profitable, but you need to be contractually watertight to not be caught by IR35 (if investigated of course). I know that HMRC will even look to see if...

    Pre Match Birmingham (A)

    Re: How can I watch Birmingham match in Australia I would agree it's not ideal, the adverts and the way it dominates your browser are annoying. But it is free and easy to turn on and off compared to most other solutions. I tried it earlier and managed to watch BBC Breakfast News (I was that...

    Pre Match Birmingham (A)

    Re: How can I watch Birmingham match in Australia Well if you know anyone with Fox Sports, it's a "red button" on demand game on FS1 at the same slot as West Brom v Wolves. Can't see many pubs showing it though! Alternatively you could possibly, maybe, perhaps, if the such things are allowed...

    Ex-players and managers

    Re: Ex-players (the thread nobody's been waiting for) It's a problem for any team down there, except possibly Crawley a couple of years ago. I think Jason Walker will be poached too, if he keeps it up he'll have 20 goals by Christmas. Chambers is definitely looking back to his potential best...

    Ex-players and managers

    Re: Ex-players (the thread nobody's been waiting for) Gary Mills has worked wonders - and he certainly has pashun. Some of the players he's brought in are a class above and the style of football is a lot of fun too. I can honesty say it's better than much of the football in higher leagues...

    Ex-players and managers

    Re: Ex-players (the thread nobody's been waiting for) An increasingly impressive Ashley Chambers scores his fifth goal of the season for York City away to Southport, winning a point for a York side that is beginning to click.

    Moving to Aus

    I think that's what Lako means by "socially advanced"...

    Moving to Aus

    Well I've recently arrived in Perth after years of nearly doing it FF. I have to say it is the perfect time to come to Australia as it really is booming, and it is at least partly protected from instability in Europe and the US. For example the company I work for has $10bn of work coming in in...

    Pre Match Cardiff City (a) - Championship

    Oooh about 2 months now. I fancied a bit of a change...and a chance to enjoy the sunshine and economic boom down under.

    Pre Match Cardiff City (a) - Championship

    The game is on Fox Sports here in Oz Billyjof so might be worth heading to the pub if you don't have Foxtel?

    My Huddersfield friends tell me he is likely to go to Norwich, who also have a bid accepted. Will be interesting to see if we have more pulling power than Deliah's boys. I hope he can see what Sven is trying to build here.

    Fifteen years ago today

    My first time at Wembley too. Not a bad way to start! As the goal went in my Dad burst into tears, and it was the only time I have seen him cry. At the time I thought he was a bit soft, but now just watching that clip brings tears to my eyes! Good times, let's hope they return next year.

    Chambers to York

    Apparently he was released from his contract last week so a free man.

    Chambers to York

    I can confirm she is overwhelmingly indifferent about it! Having said that, York fans will be hoping that he can live up to his early hype, and more importantly, up to SuperScouts belief in him. Good luck with that!
