Rut Posted 24 April, 2012 Share Posted 24 April, 2012 7.30am where I am. A bit of a sucky time but not as bad as 4.30am if you live on the West Coast of the USA. What do you do there? Stay up all night or get up early? Recent SFC TV games have sucked (including Leicester last night). Surely this one will have a happy ending though.

ericofarabia Posted 24 April, 2012 Share Posted 24 April, 2012 Only 3 hours ahead of BST, so a 1530 KO. Most people working then, so, IF Al Jism decide to show us and the WHU match simultaneously, the only people in the pub will be Saints and Hammers - could make for an interesting afternoons drinking!! Unfortunately my (fingers crossed) post match celebrations will have to be somewhat curtailed as it is Mrs EoA's last day in Dubai before flying back Sun morn. Be a bit rude to be out on the lash all day, might treat her to one of the bottles of champers in the wine cooler though!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rut Posted 24 April, 2012 Author Share Posted 24 April, 2012 Are you getting up extra early to sink a few before the start? Maybe... I'll def have a quiet Friday night and see what happens from there. A 7.30am KO does suck. Do you lot still go round Mr G's place to get relaxed pre-game? What are your pre/post match pubs of choice now? Never know - may see you in one on Saturday. Would be good... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ouch .... sorry to hear that she won't be at SMS on Saturday - she'd have loved it that is certain. Hope she isn't relying on me for text updates - you know what my typing skills are like, especially after a few beers - the game will have finished before I've even texted the 1st of Rickies Hat Trick goals on 4 minutes!! When do you get back? Mrs EoA deps Sun morn - is FDMP busy Sunday afternoon? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LVSaint Posted 24 April, 2012 Share Posted 24 April, 2012 Not sure if FSP will have this one, I fear it'll be a different match since it's a BBC game and Fox might be forced to do what Sky do 4:30 for me. Am in two minds what to do. If we have TV coverage, tempted to record it and watch in the morning. Got a busy day on Saturday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brizzie Saints Posted 25 April, 2012 Share Posted 25 April, 2012 9:30 Pm for me on the East Coast, which is probably the best i've had all season. 3pm = midnight, 5:20 = 2:20am, 7:45 pm = 4:45am. So at 9:30pm i'll be nicely pickled but still sober enough to be able to watch it, get to bed about 1am and still have a normal sunday. Just need the result now.

Game is confirmed on Goal TV1 so it will definitely be on at The Dog n Bone, 106 Upper East Road, Siglap. The West Ham is being shown on Goal TV2 at same time.

Cascadia Saint Posted 25 April, 2012 Share Posted 25 April, 2012 (edited) 4.30 in the bastard morning. Do I stay up from the night before? Or get up early? Because beer will invariably be involved...

Yay! used the XOOMFOX promo code again on another different password and it still works for a free month. I can stream it to the Apple TV box in the living room and watch it on the telly, whilst sat on the sofa like a normal human being!

I still like the option to have the FSC channels on my TV - Sky Sports News within easy reach. Can you watch SSN with the 2Go service? The online service would be cheaper though and possibly more games available. Of course the other option for the Beeb's coverage of the game would be iPlayer. I keep meaning to install FoxyProxy on one of my computers but don't want to risk messing with the settings. I expect though it's fairly foolproof and the proxy can be easily turned on/off restoring basic settings. Anyone tried it? How well does it actually stream?

(Sorry for going off topic here) I haven't tried FoxyProxy or any other proxy solutions at all so can't say how easy or not they may be to use... I have Fox Soccer already and will next season too, which will cover a chunk of the games and obviously SSN. I just can't get FSP (formerly Setanta) on Comcast. I used to have Directv but can't anymore because there are too many bloody trees around the apartment. Foxsoccer2go might have to be the way to go...

LVSaint Posted 25 April, 2012 Share Posted 25 April, 2012 Forgetting what real trees and grass look like...sigh. Think I might try the online service next season (if Saints dont fuk it up) and drop the TV services...if SSN could be available online too (dont think I could be arsed to download it everyday). Looking at the on-demand content I don't see it though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

suewhistle Posted 26 April, 2012 Share Posted 26 April, 2012 Only an hour ahead here so a fine time and, even better, my team has a rest day on Sunday and fortunately the manager hasn't organised a friendly so I can be suitably misbehaved on the beer front...

RoswellSaint Posted 27 April, 2012 Share Posted 27 April, 2012 It's my son's cub scout camp this weekend. We will be in a tent in the middle of nowhere (Deliverance country), barely cellphone coverage. Do I get text alerts or record it on DVR to watch if and when I get back to the real world? Probably record and avoid the modern world. As long as the Coventry supporting dad who will be there keeps quiet. Oh, 7.30 am here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NY Saint Posted 28 April, 2012 Share Posted 28 April, 2012 I'm in a remote town near Seattle for work... just realised that its going to be 4:30am for me as well. Arse. And there was me thinking living on the west coast might be a possibility.... ******** to that. Luckily the hotel has wifi throughout so I'll be watching the game in bed.
