  1. Same shit different day, that's mine. Exsqueeze me instead of Excuse me, and wank you very much.
  2. Haven't been to as many games as most on here, but one that springs to mind was at home to Blackburn 98/99 season. We were 3-1 down and staged a comeback, Pahars comes on and makes it 3-3 on 85 mins. The Dell went looney. I think we almost won it with a Le Tiss stunner. Blackburn went down at the end of the season.
  3. Fox will reclaim the rights I'm sure, if NBC throws in the towel - which I most certainly hope they do not! The trade off is that we will get SSN back, which I really miss. On a tangent - I am particularly happy this week as I have the beeb iplayer working flawlessly on my computer. No tricky proxies either. If not already done so, I suggest every expat download a magical little Firefox plug-in called 'Hola'. this is a geoblock bypass program. Then click this link - http://client.hola.org/be_client_cgi/?hscript=17684e04b03ea212&sites=bbc&utm_referer=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.facebook.com%2Fl.php%3Fu%3Dhttp%3A%2F%2Fhola.org%2Funblocker%3Fhscript%3D17684e04b03ea212%26sites%3Dbbc%26h%3DVAQFDWuy6AQHPuWZTXRlH0FPaj9bgNGCOcAgnorSthsctTg%26s%3D1&uuid=5f751b29d8e546bc98f1dce041146592 This link automatically unlocks the iplayer geoblock. Done. Easy peasy. On another side note - if anyone knows a decent alternative British tv torrent community, please let me know. thebox.bz recently shut down (or moved and kicked the majority of users off). This was a brilliant source of UK programming - and an especially efficient MOTD download source. Sure, MOTD is out there for download elsewhere, but it's nowhere near quick enough to download to watch on the Saturday evening.
  4. bonobo yo
  5. Twin Peaks and Firefly. Should be on everyone's bucket list. Both cut short though.
  6. It's magnificent and I'd highly recommend reading the books at the same time as it gives even more insight to the plot and characters as you go. You can get the beer too...
  7. Gravity is stunning. Saw it in 2D but imagine that 3D or better still, IMAX, would be ****ing incredible. All the more enhanced by the cinema I was watching it in - electric leather recliners and beer. I think I'm going to watch it again...
  8. first few seasons of Dexter for sure. And if you have not tried these... Deadwood GOT Boardwalk Empire ..do 'em!
  9. She gets to the next base in the next episode... This aside, been rather uninspiring so far.
  10. Oh nice, those Extra Time channels tend to chop and change so I'll confirm it late Sat night. They can shut down the country but they ain't taking our Saints away!
  11. It appears that this weekend's game verses Swansea will be the first only available via the online stream (for those with DTV at least). Watched soem of the Everton vs Newcastle game via NBC online at work today and I must say the quality is excellent. Now to find a cable to hook up my laptop to the TV...
  12. Can confirm correctness. 'Tis my middle name afterall...
  13. In a similar vein, I've subbed out Cech and put Boruc in for this one.
  14. Finished watching the third and probably final season of Luther. All a bit far fetched towards the end but enjoyable and engrossing nonetheless. Boardwalk Empire is back. A few episodes left of Broadchurch with David Tennant as Scottish cop investigating seaside town murder, very good. (Fox have announced a US remake...oh dear...) Watched one episode of Parades End. Pretty decent bit of period drama with excellent cast.
  15. I had a problem with the DTV channel. Arses changed the the Extratime feed channel I had set up to record on TV. I woke up at 830am and started the recording only to find it empty. Navigated to the correct channel and watched the last 20 mins. I know now to make sure the night before that all is set up correctly!
  16. so many outlets now for football - FS1 and 2, BeIn etc, not one could have the foresight to include the Ukraine game...they managed the Moldova one. Bonkers! Watched it through a pretty decent stream at work though. Diggers - I read somewhere that xfinity/Comcast had not secured all markets for EPL extratime package, could be old news now though.

  18. Who are his all time top 5 Italian dictators?

    Brazil holiday

    mmmm...caipirinhas...
  20. I'd take one but I like having rubber around mine
  21. Your DTV bill should be significantly less. Why are you paying for NFL Sunday ticket? I'm saving almost $25 a month without subscribing to the Fox channels and the quality is that much better now. Ah, unless you are a new DTV subscriber (which might include free NFL package).....
  22. Thanks for posting those goals as the ******s that be (Fox) have taken my beloved ssn away...
  23. Saw this on the changing room wall during a stadium tour last week. Morgan likes the horses? Rodriguez likes to fight? As for Mayuka....
  24. Am well happy with what they've done so far. Last week's Sunderland game had recorded just like it said it would (no chopping and changing matches eh Fox), got in after my flight and watched that evening. The Extra Time time channels via Directv are looking good, with scheduled game for each channel already up on my guide. If my TV was better, I'd really enjoy the HD service they are providing, but it's still very good on my bricklike tv....so much better than FSP's horrible feeds! Now all we need is Fox to renew their Sky Sports News broadcasts which they appear to have forgotten about....instead they show 7 hours of Fox Sports News all night....idiots...
  25. FFS! Hopefully just teething trouble and it gets smoothed over soon. Can anyone with Directv give an account of how it was for them? I hope they are telling us which Extra time channel will show what with enough warning so I can set the right one to record. Don't want to get up at stinking 7am every Saturday....
