row_33 Posted September 25, 2018 Author Share Posted September 25, 2018 so the online streaming site has cut the fee from 20 to 15 per month i guess they are finding out that "nobody really watches soccer all that much in North America" or at least wants to fork out even more $$$ than they already pay in Canada soccer is the best for people romanticizing games they never watched and won't watch in the future, they won't pay $$$ for that mind bubble Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fadingpain Posted November 7, 2018 Share Posted November 7, 2018 Just listening to Schopp and Bulldog and they were discussing soccer. In the span of a minute, Bulldog pronounced Juventus as "Jew-ventus" with a hard "J" sound, twice. I had to laugh, but it really pissed me off for some reason. Keep up the good work Bulldog, you calcio aficionado, you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

row_33 Posted November 27, 2018 Author Share Posted November 27, 2018 --------------- cricket question just watched most of the women's T20 world cup, i don't recall a single lbw call or appeal in about 14 matches is this more common for women or T20 in general i usually watch men's test cricket and the lbw appeal is a mainstay in almost every over (it seems..)

I watch plenty of cricket but I've never seen much or enough women's cricket to notice the level of appealing for LBW. if I ever finding myself watching a game I'll take notice. I think the Men's T20 the LBW appeals are normal but the batsmen are moving around the crease more and therefore getting an LBW decision is harder. Of course, the difference between bowling in T20 to Tests is that you're trying to restrict runs in T20 but get the batsmen out in Tests. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
row_33 Posted November 29, 2018 Author Share Posted November 29, 2018 thanks BB, this was my first time watching women play, there has been nothing else to watch here for a few months there will shortly be enough to watch with a few winter tours shown in their entirety, with India touring Oz already in motion Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
row_33 Posted January 4, 2019 Author Share Posted January 4, 2019 (edited) ------------------------ is using the F-word permissable on-air for TEST CRICKET commentary from Australia? Shane Warne clearly stated it once, his team was silent briefly before carrying on. i'd hope there were still some standards for this grande olde game Edited January 4, 2019 by row_33 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blokestradamus Posted January 22, 2019 Share Posted January 22, 2019 New Cardiff City striker Emiliano Sala was on board a plane that disappeared over the English Channel. The flight left Nantes last night with Sala expected to train with his new team this morning. Both Sala and the pilot are missing, along with the aircraft. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-europe-guernsey-46954922 I hope for a positive outcome but I fear the worst has happened. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blokestradamus Posted March 8, 2019 Share Posted March 8, 2019 In case you missed it, the mighty Stockport County went top of the National League North on Tuesday night after battering Boston United 3-1. 16 games unbeaten in the league, 23 unbeaten in all competitions. 2 games from a final at Wembley. Things are looking up, boys. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The IPL is fun. Sadly, they've moved it to a subscription sports channel (BT Sport) over here. Highlights are available on a freeview channel but in the age of instant information they're aren't worth watching. I always keep an eye on the Kolkota Knightriders. Mainly in the hope they're losing a game and a talking car comes to the rescue. I'm non-plussed if that includes The Hoff or not. I see there has already been a moment of controversy with Jos Buttler being run-out in the "Mankad" style. Bit odd in cricket where they have stuff which is frowned upon but not against the laws of the game.

In England too. I might see if I can pick up a ticket or two for any of the games played in the North. It's also an Ashes summer. IPL is very much all stars of the T20 world. If I was to recommend a version of the game to get someone interested in cricket it would start with T20. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blokestradamus Posted April 22, 2019 Share Posted April 22, 2019 After a pulsating and ***** exhausting afternoon of National League North action, the mighty Stockport County are one game away from promotion and the league title. County comfortably beat Curzon Ashton 2-0 while former leaders Chorley fell to a 94th minute winner away to Spennymoor (yes, I celebrated in my living room when it went in). This leaves Stockport needing a win against bottom of the league Nuneaton on Saturday to be crowned as champions on the final day. Not even we can screw this up from here, surely. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
