Jeff Stelling used to be friends with Lowe. They both went beagling together. SKY Sports - 100% SFC.

Can't afford the fuel, and can't be arsed with all the travelling. I prefer away games anyway.

We've got Matt batting for us though, so might wangle a few more.

I'm planning to add on HD, but chose to leave that off to start with.

Except Blackpool will lose, and you'll lose a fiver. Apart from that it's a great plan.

Not gone for the HD option, is it on normal SS1?

Is that part of the sports package?

I saw that debate and the bottom line is that you cannot believe what any politician says. The best thing that can now happen is that the the European bureacrats get together and formulate an orderly break up of the EURO, but i'm afriad they won't do that so it's going to be a complete mess when Greece leaves, followed by Spain, followed by Portugal and Italy. The sooner we this show on the road the better. All this dithering is putting off the inevitable and making things worse.

unfortunately I can't get virgin or the bt thing.

Just had a tenner on whu to win in 90 mins at EVS. Easy money.

hmm, do they usually pencil in the live games once the fixtures are out? Can't remember from when I last had it.

WTF, are you serious?

We were on the bbc a few times though.

You're the bestest.

Woohoo, just signed up to the sports pack. First time i've had it since we got relegated in 2005. Anyone else gonna join? How many times will we be on?

Another clear pointer towards our massiveness and our need to build a 50,000 seat super stadium.

But you make up for that by being an accomplished bore.

the reason I suspect Sunderland will struggle is based purely on how they finished the season. They were in a great position with 3/4 of the season gone, then for the remaining 1/4 were in relegation form. Teams tend to start a new season how they finished the previous season.

It's just my opinion. Before the film came out I expected it'd be good and be a realistic docu-film, but in reality it was just left wing propaganda. But each to his own, I just prefer historical films to be more accurate, not influenced by political correctness and less corny.

Like I say unrealistic rubbish, but bound to become a cult film among students in the same way crap like the clockwork orange is.

I thought it was sh/te. Stupid unrealistic storyline. No doubt it'll gain cult status in a few years among the super mikeys of this world.

Of course we deserved to finish above them Les, because over the whole season we were better than them, but the point i'm making is that they looked very good towards the end of the season. They played quick passing football, and would have been to good for us - IMO - had we played them at that stage.

Well that's rubbish for a start. Of course it'd be nice to pay the premium for early buys, but that is not how it works. Chairman never like having to pay wages over the summer, they always leave it as late as possible.

Isn't that what Millibean is going to do too? It's living in cloud cuckoo land. We are up to our eyeballs in debt, running a deficit, and in anycase we haven't seen any cuts as such yet anyway. Unless we make these painful sacrifices we're going to get clobbered by the money markets and if that happens we'll be in the same danger zone as the PIGS.
