That first kick off whistle also resurrects that fervent Arsenal fanboy in me for another season. Go City!

Hahah BBC on TV just showed two squads of Man City:

Playing against Spurs:
Hart, Kolarov, K Toure, Kompany, Richards, Barry, De Jong, Y Toure, Wright Phillips, Silva, Tevez

The other team that could've using none of the above players (can't remember it all):
Given, Robinho, Ireland, Vieira, Balotelli, Adebayor, Bridge

It's just quite ridiculous really, even though quite a few would have to leave

Same here. There's so many different channels showing different matches. Do you know what the SportsnetOne channel is about? They said it's going to be launching @ 12 noon today and they will show EPL matches. Today they'll show the Chelsea v WBA match.

setanta lost the rights to the EPL.. TSN is partially owned by ESPN, which has EPL rights, so now they'll be at least 1 live game on tsn, sportsnet and the score(or whatever the fuck its called now) a week.

we'll get to see more games live, but less games in total.

i guess that's assuming you had setanta(

one more edit, have i mentioned yet how i can't listen to anyone with a canadian accent talking about soccer ughh . also this guy has some awesome sideburns lmao

I dont know but they going to show it as free preview for a while so it will depend on how many games they show and I dont know that it will be many since Setanta has like the rights to all the EPL games it seems. I hate how the rights to various leagues are like controlled by different channels or shared. LIke EPL is on Setanta, Sportsnet, Score and now even TSN. Goltv is the best in value you get La Liga and Bundesliga and like guaranteed every Madrid, Barca, Bayern game. Then you have Foxsportsworld and TLN sharing rights to Serie A. In the end you end up paying extra to get all of those channels and now they adding another one.


P.S. the first half of this game right now was more entertaining then most of the world cup games we had, I dont know how its still scoreless but Spurs could have had 3 goals easily

edit: oh I didnt see ur post matt, but on my guide setanta is showing 3 EPL games today are you sure they dont hold the rights anymore?
