    I've nothing against gays but if you're only SSN for the news you're missing the talent/the point. And I'm not talking about WEE JIMMMY WHITE ;)

    God I hate him bigging up his Scottish accent. The women on it are alrite bit overrated imo but Olivia Godfrey trumps any of them on it these days.

    Millie Clode, Haley McQueen and Natalie Sawyer do it for me anyways.

    Millie is alrite, the other two not feeling it D.Beag. McQueen has bigger arms than most guys & Sawyer is just a bit plain. Liverpool are sacking the Head of Sports Medicine & Science now, yanks are on the rampage wonder will they make Gary Gillespie & David Fairclough fight to the death over who gets to do all the analysis on the Channel.

    So Comolli is carrying the can for Kenny's mediocre buys?

    Georgie Thompson will always be my favourite SSN lady,closely followed by Rachel Wyse and that Charlotte one who Andy Gray sexually harassed.

    Sky sports news is free across all sky packages :pac:

    And are they free?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,478 ✭✭✭✭gnfnrhead


    It's in the entertainment package on UPC. Not the movies or sports one. The one that includes the Food channel, Dave etc. A lot more people have it than you think, how many of them use it is another thing.

    I don't know what to make of Comolli, hard to judge him as nobody knows exactly what players he picked/signed/negotiated.

    I had the basic Sky package and one day last summer when i turned on SSN and it said I had to pay extra per month to watch it. Packed in my sky subscription after that. Pack of greedy fcukers

    GET IN THERE!!!!! Wasn't the greatest of games but delighted with that.

    I got banned from the soccer forum for asking to be added to the soccer forum ... just thought I'd say that. Glad there's no such crazyness here :)


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 10,469 ✭✭✭✭GTR63


    The Soccer forum is such a total mess that it probably makes sense Hygro. Very Happy that we made the FA Cup final the season can go on for 3 more weeks for us. No Cup final for media fave Moyes, it disappeared quicker than his eyebrows. Tevez got a hattrick today (plus MOTM) & the first thing he was asked by the interviewer was "Did you dive?" if I was him i'd of smashed the bottle into the interviews face he'd of earned it too.

    I just thought it was funny that I got banned ... for a moment I thought it was from boards completely, then I realised it was just the soccer forum, phew!

    On a good note, brought in Aguero in my fantasy team today and made him captain ... happy days!!

    Liverpool do the cup double?? who's in the other semi again, spurs and who else?

    I don't think we go a week without complaining about the soccer forum. If you just read my posts you'll enjoy it.

    Well you would have won if it was a case of who lead for the majority of the race.

    Livorno midfielder Piermario Morosini collapsed and died during his side's Serie B meeting with Pescara at the Stadio Adriatico on Saturday. The 25-year-old fell to the ground in the 33rd minute with medical staff immediately running onto the pitch to perform cardiac massage on the player. The game was abandoned and Morosini left the stadium in an ambulance, slipping into a pharmacological coma before passing away.
    All matches this weekend in Italy are now post ponned.

    Everton? But f**kin Norwich what a waste of ink that bet was. Must of been your heart over ruling your head with that.

    Norwich aren't a bad little team, and before their last game, City were ballsing things up. But yeah, think it was the United fan in me wanting City to lose :P


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 15,238 ✭✭✭✭Diabhal Beag


    Norwich is a weird case of championship level players like Bennett and Surman, and good players like Wes Hoolahan and Grant Holt. Lambert got so old looking in 10 years though.


  • Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 18,470 Mod ✭✭✭✭DM_7


    Nothing wrong with picking Norwich at home to win.

    You get strange results this time of year and over Christmas due to the number of games so close together.

    they managed to beat spurs last week and City had a few poor results recently.

    it was only a one euro bet!

    My mother calls me:

    "Punked, did you put money on the race?"
    "What race?"
    "The grand national! You have to put something on it."
    "Sure go on and do it for me, whatever you think i'll like. I'll pay you back if it wins."

    Later she told me she put it on seabass so i called her back.

    "Our horse came third, did you put it each way?"
    "Yeah i did. Knew i would pick a good one."

    Im delighted thinking if she put a tenner on it i would be a good win because it was during the week.

    "so you will get two back."

    Nice one. 200 quid for me... But no, she put on a euro as well and got back 3. :rolleyes: I splashed out on getting some snack-a-jacks for 1.50 in tesco to celebrate. :)

    I'm not trashing him as if he picked Gijon to win handy at the Bernabéu earlier but I always knew City would win that after Norwich put a hell of a effort in to win at White Hart Lane on Monday & City squashed jobber to the stars West Brom midweek after the pressure went from the title race.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,036 ✭✭✭ShagNastii


    Are any boardsies heading to Bray tonight? I'm thinking of heading but none of my mates are game. Would love to tag along.

    Ah the ol goal line technology debate will rear its ugly trollface again. Still at least it'll give the papers something to write about tomorrow.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 10,469 ✭✭✭✭GTR63


    Lets hope that wasn't the englsh audition for Arry cause they stunk the place out. Sadly for Chelsea its highly unlikely Barca will be that bad midweek. Spurs would want to wake up though they have been in freefall ever since harry got cleared in court & he started courting engerlund. Doubt Bale, Modric & Van Der Vaart would want another year in football purgatory stuck on 3e in the Europa League being analised by Phil Babb who was at Sporting Lisbon at one time.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 15,238 ✭✭✭✭Diabhal Beag


    Delighted at how badly Spurs were beaten.

    Arry for Gaillimh now?
    Then a "Are Arry & Galway Done?" thread in the Soccer and Galway GAA forum. Not a good showing today bar the Judo throw, I worry its another year of nothing.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 10,469 ✭✭✭✭GTR63


    Early signs show the Chelsea fan thread could be like a mini "Racism/fanboy" thread over in the soccer forum. One thing i'll say you are never suprised with them.

    Would you believe my stream stopped at the judo throw. Furious I was I missed it. As bad as Galway were I couldn't believe Dublin didn't win in normal time. In football news though Michael Meehan and Seán Armstrong played for their clubs this weekend :D

    Still won't be enough come 15th July! Was at a wedding in Mayo Saturday so missed the first Mayo defeat of Kerry in 16 years at Croke Park. 4 times I've been there and we've been well beaten and the first time I miss one we win. Wedding totally not worth it!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 10,469 ✭✭✭✭GTR63


    Michael Meehan is still playing, hope he is fit for some of the CFC. Goal line technology debate is all the rage again, hope Hawk eye doesn't work cause I dream of the day to see the headline "SHÍTEHAWK" on the back of newspapers worldwide.

    Hope it isn't Mr.Gilbert he is great. Breaking Bad is on TG4 Thurdays at 11, looking forward to watching that after hearing on here it was great. Champions League semi should be good tonite one thing both have in common is that neither of them can afford to sit back & play cagey due to their defensive frailties.
