Wifey's not too happy. They're showing all English teams except her beloved Liverpool.
I'd maybe subscribe to Setanta if they were on cable but as they aren't, I'll just continue to watch games that are streamed off the web. Watched Norwich vs. Plymouth on Saturday through some Arabic website and the picture was about 1 second behind the BBC Radio Devon commentary so worked pretty well.
ESPN 2 are showing the Liverpool and Man Utd games live this week against Betis and Villareal respectively.
Ah! Hadn't checked the ESPN2 schedules yet. I wondered what black hole the champions had disappeared into.
We just have the FSW as extra on our directv and quite honestly their schedule this season is crap. We do get games on Sat/Sun but in the week they are just on in the afternoon whereas last season we always had games Mon/Tues/Wed evenings as well. We are thinking of dropping them and paying for Setanta. do you think it is a better choice?

yeah, you get the delights of Tommy "onion bag" Smyth commentating.

Can you post the link?...maybe I can pick up QPRv Palace on Monday
Also when I try and tune into radio commetaries on the BBC they say servcie not avaiaable overseas. So - they don't blocK local radion
I did not bookmark the link - basically, about 8 links were posted on unofficial supporters website and the first I clicked brought up the footage. Next time someone posts it, I'll copy it and send it over to you so you can try and find games.
There was Sky commentary with the broadcast I watched but I turned it down and listened to BBC Radio Devon's highly biased commentary. Some BBC Radio stations will broadcast commentaries free but because my club has a contract with Premium TV, you have to subscribe to the official website to get commentary (legally - again, some folks are streaming commentary over the Internet themselves).
