I`ve been trying to follow the One Day Cricket series Aus vs India vs Sri Lanka.

It`s on Super Sports.

It`s always been on either channel 39 or 15.Today it`s on 34.

A couple of the games they haven`t shown at all.

Took a little while to find it,and missed the first 30 minutes.

Cool Cable worked

My cheapo 350 Baht a month cable TV showed all the games live.

There was a marked contrast to the crowd attitude.In the Welsh game there was a lot of booing to try and put the kicker off.

In Dublin there was a respectful silence leading up to each attempt.

Yes, cable is lot better for that kind of sports, the Supersport channels from Multichoice are the best ones. So thats why I have both UBC and cable at the bar.

Ok...i`ve been stewing over this for a little bit.

I have a problem with European Football after seeing some Italian pussy pretend he got fouled/injured right near the end of a semi final against Australia in The World Cup 2 years ago.

Only to be given a penalty and have the game taken away from Australia.

Seems the skill in that game is to pretend someone hurt you so you get a penalty,as goals are rare and very hard to come by.

The referee later admitted it was a mistake to award a penalty.

I can see why the crowds get violent sometimes,that p1ssed me off big time.

Honestly,some of those guys wouldn`t last one tackle in a game of Rugby.

Not sure what the set up is here at the 'Club' guess it's a cable jobbie. I don't pay for it but I've only got about 15 channels, which is plenty for what I watch it. HBO, Star movies, Nat Geo, etc

Just had the Chelski, Tottingham game on.

We've also got an Australian channel that shows Poirot.......In Australian! Brilliant!

You've not seen Rochdale Hornets then have you Son? It's like Rugby League and Billy Smarts Circus rolled into one. Only the clowns have got two foot long red rugby boots on.
