    With Premier League games on last night and today why can't Setanta and Sky not show a game each on the nights.

    I know its probably do with TV rights etc

    Means people could have a chance of two games instead of 1 to watch.

    As last night game between Sunderland and Birmingham was rubbish.

    I couldn't stick watching it just kept flicking in and out.

    You answered your own question.

    You don't have to have an interest in a topic to be the mod. ;)

    All games last night were rubbish.

    Your choices were

    1. Watch Newcastle be hammered again for the 2nd time in 3 days.
    2. The Mighty Boro take on all fast flowing Wigan
    3. Or 0-0 between Bolton and Fulham.

    I flicked between the Arse and Sunderland match, the Sunderland match was the more entertaining.

    So in essence, Sky got it right!

    What the hell? The Arsenal game was great, they were lovely to watch. And Newcastle gave them a real go in the second half. Sunderland and Brum are **** teams, one of them is better than the other.
