Haha I can totally relate, last season I had a lecture hall from 3 to 6, so for all of the midweek games I was sitting in the corner with the laptop watching the games... Like the last day after I took the final the professor asked me what I was watching during the classes, rather awkward but hey what can ya do...

Its nice watching the European games and other Cup games because then its mostly a 3 in the afternoon kickoff, unfourtunetly no pubs show any of the games so mostly its just me and the gal screaming at the screen instead of me screaming at the scum fans..


Yeh the early morning ones can be a killer. Especially if you've been up till 4 the night before, but I cant miss a game. Sometimes its an internet job, but having our own City bar now makes it more worth while. Got to represent.

we can't stream anything at work, so i usually just follow the gamecast on soccernet and try to see what people are posting on the game threads - seeing as there are no streams today may just be following the gamecast.

Yeah, you should check out the matchday center on the website as well. I am just not a big fan of soccernet because there are so many dumb liverpool, arse-holes, and scum supporters that don't have a f-ing clue what they are talking about.

yeah i've started using the match day centre this season - problem is the updates are sometimes few and far between. although that's a problem no matter where i'm following i guess.

best option is probably to go ahead and move to manchester i suppose...

i think we can all agree that the uk hasn't figured out sports programming yet.
