Is that definite or is their a chance the caribou lot have ****ed it up again? Would rather have Sunderland away.
 
Why were Newport County in the Northern section, when Wolves and Birmingham were in the Southern?

Newport can't play any home games for a few weeks, because of their pitch not being ready.
West Ham can't play any home games for a few weeks, because it will take ages to turn the athletics stadium into a football stadium after the World Championships.
So both clubs have to play their league cup game away from home.
They couldn't both be in the southern section, in case they were drawn against each other. So one of them had to go into the northern section.

Sounds pretty amateur for league sides. Wasn't too long ago teams were demoted for having shit grounds.
 
Surprised so many of our games are being shown on tv

Sky have got a new "prem only" channel so they'll be trying to fill it.
Murdoch's solution to people rejecting the notion of paying exorbitant monthly fees to watch 2 games they care about a month is to ram more expensive football onto the TV

Good luck to them.

Of course the evil overlord only gives a shit as she's probably at the other Evil overlord's house for dinner most nights.

I'll keep on for the time being.
 
I mean, it's piracy.

Obviously have a "dog in the fight" here. But illegal streaming is a scourge.

On the other hand...the 10am blackout is the stupidest ****ing thing in the world...no reason every single game shouldn't be available to watch.

Have Sky got any more games than they had last season? I thought it was the same number.

I think it's a pity that Sky only make their packages attractive to people who will watch any football. They do nothing for the fan who only wants to see his/her own team. Do they not realise that a huge number of fans do not give a **** about watching the top six if their team is not one of them

Just heard on the news that the Premier League stopped over 600 illegal streams this weekend. I lolled and upset the peace of Mrs Boc (apparently). They must have missed a few!
