Bloody pathetic how it's not on in the UK, when an island of half a million in the middle of the Med have all the cup games on.
Once again we have got the hardest draw in the cup and should be one of the best games this weekend yet we are nowhere near the broadcasters choice. I'm putting it down to money, not giving us the benefit of television rights while lining the pockets of those less deserving. How many games is it for the Beeb and Rags now, 58 straight?

I think it has played a part that we are playing Monaco on the Tuesday. If they couldn't give us the early Saturday spot then no point changing it.
After all we kicked up enough fuss last year, and rightly so, so we can't have it both ways.
On a good note, if it is being shown in Malta then at least there will be a stream somewhere kicking about. No more looking at it through Fred's phone.

There's a list on the OS that shows near enough every country, less ours.

Will you be having a drink or two in the bar, whilst watching the game 64 ??
I mean, with temperatures like that, you don't want to get de-hydrated.

Not much top quality German pilsners and French rocket fuel to be consumed in the resort , well I haven't found any bars serving them the last five winters I have stayed there ........ some very decent Spanish beers though , Cruz campo , Mahou and Tropical plus cold Guiness in the irish bars . Spoilt for choice to be fair , all good !

Just realised Aaron Mooy is ineligible for this match.
Thank fuck for that, the script would be laid out.

Mooy or no Mooy they will give all they have and be drilled to take every pop shot possible if Bravo is in goal. Hope to god the players don't direspect what they are capable of. They are flying this season and will go at is from the off.
I haven't a fecking clue what I'm doing! Gillie come back man I want my sig back. As the Photobucket thingy gone?

Local paper says it will be a record attendance for a football match at the stadium. Just over 24000 expected.

Is that all it holds? Am sure Leeds Road held a lot more than that. It felt massive as a kid.

24,500 roughly. Leeds Road back in t' good old days could manage over 60,000. In its last days the capacity was down at around 16,000.

That's when the banks were there. Good days.

Why do we have to state our team 72 hrs before the game, is this the FA penalising us again?
