LOL.

Yeah I saw that, seems as if the load balancing across the servers wasn't working as expected - but should be now. This is the first service of this type where the providers have actually admitted a problem though, on others I've used in the past (offsidestreams) they just ignore you if you have any issues and hope you'll go away. I have no idea how long this will last, but it's a notch up on anything I've used streaming wise before.

I think most people in the world know he's going to sign tbh. In fact he probably already has bar the signature.

We went back to basics today, had a good shape, good organisation and defended very well as units over the pitch. This meant that we lacked much of an attacking threat, but that wasn't helped by the withdrawal of Mane. I think we just needed to get back to basics with defending, which we did. The goals will come as long as we get the defensive basics correct. Neither team deserved to win, neither team deserved to lose. Playing away at promoted teams in the first bunch of games isn't ideal.

Been using it via Kodi today, bar a drop at around 42mins, it's been totally faultless. Crystal clear stream, HD Quality and no buffering. Very pleased.

Stunned by some of the ractions on this thread, it's no where near as bad as some are suggesting. We're doing our job, it's clear that our plan is to nullify the game and see where we are come 60mins or so.

Too much gap between the midfield and the attack, thus nothing much happening. Blow to lose Mane, as he was our real threat (as he is most games). Defensively we're a lot better though. Romeu just looks a bit of a player by the way he does things and moves around the pitch.

TSN3, TSN4, CTH Stadium 2 and Extra Time 1 are all showing the game.

A player of Pedro's quality available at £20m, yet WBA's own Berahino going for £21m. He's like 5 or 6 levels down from Pedro. WBA are pretty trash though. Really don't rate them as a team, seemingly no quality what so ever. And any team who has Mclean as a starter deserves to go down.

Well, the game isn't the same game anymore. It's dominated by money, money talks. That's why there's a hell of a lot more speculation. That method these days would just make things 100 times worse.

Christ on a bike, there is some utter trash written on this thread.

I really hope you have a lot of waterproofs on, as you are seemingly constantly wetting something.

The only thing the January window does is encourage clubs to spend stupid money, it's best keeping out of that window. That's why I think changing it to a 'loan window' will be a better idea. Will still give clubs the options to change/add depth if they need to, but will encourage them to get all their business done before the season starts. The way it should be, it'll just keep the season a lot tidier.

If I'm honest, that would make it worse. There is a tool for clubs to play the dirty and unsettle players most of the season then, no one will have a settled squad at any point. In my opinion, it opens when the season ends (or 1st June) and closes the week before the start of the season (1st August). Scrap the January window as that offers zilch, but allow loans during that month.

The Add-on did cock up for me, but I've just had a bit of time to sort it. In the end, the cleanest way I found was to totally factory reset my FireTV device. I then side-loaded Kodi back onto it, and then re-added the Sportsmania repo - it then grabbed the correct add-on and everything is now working hunky dory. For some reason, I couldn't get Kodi to forget the 'old version'. I even removed Kodi from the device, but it still remembered everything - factory reset was the only way to start again, no idea where it kept all the files tbh and I couldn't be arsed to find out! Tomorrow will be the acid test...but managed to watch a few games (European ones) tonight, and all seemed very good.

I saw something on a Celtic forum which suggested he took a knock and won't be fit anyway, but that could just be tosh. If true though, then we'll prob push it through asap.

And to be fair, it's the only way a club like ourselves can compete. We have to be clever and buy potential or take a gamble on a 'big name' who hasn't quite made it, we can't buy the finished product. Although we can make the finished product for other clubs it seems. But I still surprises me how people don't understand this. They seem to assume that because our billionaire's family are rich, that we can keep all our players and buy lots of expensive players. That's never going to be the case. The policy we deploy will have peaks and troughs, but it's what gives us the best chance to compete, whilst not totally screwing ourselves financially. I'll await the ''Well, Nicola didn't have that thought!!'' - well no, he didn't. He also assumed that because our billionaire's family are rich, that he can go out their and splash stupid money around.

This is probably the worst kept secret in football. Everyone and his dog knows he's coming to us.

Whilst being absolutely disrespectful to a family we owe so much to. But it won't stop fans crying because they want ''More, More, More, More!!!!''

Blimey, it's not like Crook to be wrong.

The amount of over emotional tosh on this thread is proper cringe. Seriously, you'll all look back at this in a few weeks and feel quite silly for being so OTT.

He clearly isn't, but never mind.
