Haha...Well another option is...

Buy beers/liquor of choice the night before (if desired) or make coffee (with liquor added if preferred/needed after you scream while watching Fellani's/Shrek's antics)...

If you are in a hotel ask if NBCSN is in your room. Then wake up and just turn on the tele in your room to NBCSN on which may be free to watch.

Where are you in Florida? I suspect you may also be able to find a bar/place that serves breakfast/truck stop (?) beforehand that will show the game using Yelp or some other Internet search. Even if they don't normally play PL games, find a place that is open then and has TVs for patrons to watch sport. I would think they would subscribe to NBCSN since us Yanks love our sports on TV everywhere, and then ask if they can put on the game for you. I suspect they would.


Never mind all that.

You're a strange fruit aren't you mate?

Herbie goes bananas.

Enjoy the football. Relax and have a look at every aspect of it. You'll be a happier chap, trust me,


Ahem. I thought the excitement was caused by me posting about a very limited ex-keeper who hung out with his rag mates, so I've avoided that thorny topic to maintain your equilibrium Mr Dubb, and my input was more about the speed with which we can develop attacks and the strength in depth of our marvellous attacking midfielders.


Oh, and strange fruit is actually a reference to racist mob lynchings in the Deep South of the USA (listen to the song by Billie Holiday) so it's an odd phrase to use under the circumstances but if you want a tangible modern strange fruit then I recommend you try a tomato in a fruit salad ;-)
If we had De Gea and the rags had Hart, we'd be top with a 9 point lead and they'd be in 12th place - that's the difference between a 'good' keeper and a 'top class' keeper - 12 places - think about it.

the pustules are popping all over the place - very messy

refreshingly though, the ovoid pundit Will Greenwood, apparently a massive blue, has just predicted 0-4 in a rugby piece on SSN - let nobody complain I don't have a balanced view of the lies, smears and negative reporting we are subjected to by the loathsome majority of media parasites.

Come on IWT, I hope you're not suggesting that poor old Mase is some form of 'libertinus maximus'.

I don't think copulating with Mrs Gringo, behind the great man's back, is in his repertoire.

On the topic of obsession I'm starting to suspect you're obsessed with me slapping you down bitch-boy because you keep on coming back to humiliate yourself again. It tickles me which reminds me, where's your cockwomble mate nigels tickle? Has he fucked you off for being a boring hart obsessed wank sock?

Shame on you Mikhail.
I was suggesting no such thing. I would not cast any aspertions on the character of Mrs.Gringo or Mase for that matter.
I'm sure Mrs.Gringo is a fine upstanding lady.
On reflection I totally misread the post.
I thought the comment was from Gringo himself, but it wasn't, it was from yourself.

Sorry Gringo. No offence. Joke wasted.

He is actually far worse than Camelgob or gingerpig or Ratboy. On a par with Colleymore for my money as the most despicable pundit
