<p>So I turned on FSC today for their “Premier League Classics,” but the “classic” turned out to be a 4-0 Man Utd victory over West Brom earlier this season. I know they probably don’t have rights to games before a few years ago, but almost any match would have been more classic than that. I’m actually thinking about writing to them about it.</p>
<p>^ hahahaha I saw that too !
do it !</p>
<p>Real Madrid have officially abandoned their pursuits on David Villa. Like they really need him anyways with attackers Raul, Kaka, Ronaldo, and Benzema!</p>
<p>In other news, Franck Ribery has stated that he wants to leave Bayern Munich and the team he wants to go to is Real Madrid. I’m not sure if this will happen, because it seems like Real Madrid now are done with their offensive player spending spree.</p>
<p>FSC is all about the Big Four. It’s a joke, really.</p>
<p>And the Real Madrid thing is starting to become ridiculous.</p>
<p>When is Arsenal going to finish paying for the new stadium so we can actually make a transfer?</p>
<p>lmfaoo
arsenals stadium is sicckkkk =)
noo, ribery stay at bayernnn =( (my second favourite team)
and real madrid are only pimping out their team now because the CL final is at their stadium. they want to win it at home.</p>
<p>OMG.
Im speechless. Michael Owen went to Man Utd.
Why? </3 =(</p>
<p>^Why wouldn’t he go to Man Utd. The question is why would Man Utd pick him up.</p>
<p>He wants to play in the prem.</p>
<p>Yeah Owen just doesn’t want to play in the Coca Cola Championship League since Newcastle were regulated lol. I guess he got the best end of the bargain since he’s atleast playing in the EPL and on a great team like Man United.</p>
<p>I know he was going to leave Newcastle… but I would have rather went to freaking Hull than Man Utd.
And, the only positive thing about this is that now I see him playing more often, since Setanta almost always plays Man Utd games.
At least its only two years… by then his career will almost be over :(</p>
<p>lol @ Man U if they end up replacing Ronaldo and Tevez with only Valencia and Owen this summer. I doubt it anyway, they have lots of cash to burn. The question is what big-name players can they get since it looks like all of them are going to Real or Barca lol. I was so relieved when Benzema signed for Real. Not that I don’t hate Real, but I’d rather he plays for Real than Man U.</p>
<p>Some questions:
how often are Arsenal games shown live on TV? (since I’m an international student going to the US in august)
what channels? (I know ESPN and FSC, not counting Setanta since they’re going under) Anything else?
do you guys often miss games because of class?</p>
<p>WHATS HAPPENENING TO SETANTA???
because they are the ONLY channel that show liverpool games everyweek =(</p>
<p>
Often. US television here is usually all about the Big 4.
Those are the three. ESPN is trying to get prem rights I think but for now it’s just FSC and Setanta.
Usually prem games are weekend, so no. Cup ties and midweek fixtures, yes of course.</p>
<p>
They were in trouble financially and couldn’t pay the EPL in time, so their contract got terminated. The rights to show 46 games next season will be auctioned off

<p>@ Secret Asian Man: thanks if a game is not shown on TV, can we use internet streams on school network?</p>
<p>Yes there’s usually a stream somewhere for every prem game. justin.tv is a good site.</p>
<p>Omg. Well then I hope ESPN buys some rights, because I can’t stand watching games on the internet. We just got a 52’ HD tv, and I was excited to watch soccer on it. =(</p>
<p>It depends on how good your internet connection is. If it’s fast, you should be able to get a fairly good full screen picture.</p>
<p>Even if it’s not fast justin.tv is relatively good quality</p>
<p>justin.tv is really good so it veetle.com. Usually the Aston Villa game is on veetle.com, so I go there for the games. I don’t have FSN unfortunately on my TV…</p>
