i know, but when th next free to air tv deal comes up i think things will be set straight, seven will bid for it against nine and who knows we may start to see some good coverage on free to air!
And have 45 ad breaks in between.

Have you watched any live football on channel 9 this year? :-O We always miss the first three tackles because it takes them so long to come back to the action.

He has played there a few times for Manure. I think in the FA Cup semi-final he played there IIRC.

Let's agree to disagree then.

I want more of it on Pay TV.

I didn't say that I wanted everyone to have Pay TV, I just said I want more games on Pay TV, with more options, better commentators (if that's possible) and better coverage.

And we will see that in the NRL Finals.

I almost thought Fergie had his positions around the wrong way playing John O'Shea as a central midfielder, and Roy Keane in the centre of defence.

He did have the wrong way.

a) By them going unbeaten.

b) And what's the excuse for coming 3rd last season then?
a) Unless I'm mistaken, we beat them in the FA Cup.

b) Ferdinand was banned last year too.

Yeah they have not been beaten for 43 games, I wouldn't mind being that over-rated.

Now I am not the biggest fan of them (as most people probably know because of a certain match at the San Siro :@), but even I can admit that they are a good side and well manages.
Yes, they're good, but they're not 43 games unbeaten, they're 43 games unbeaten in the Premiership. They're good, but not brilliant, like people think - they've consistntly failed against quality opposition in Europe.

Tom Halsey said:
Yes, we've got 2 decent players in the side already. Once we get Rio and Heize, we'll have 4.
Who are these other 2 then - because I can't see any in that defence.

Tom Halsey said:
No, but before he was banned we were ahead of them - so he is clearly very important.
Arsenal had by then played all the big teams once though - or does that not matter?

You never came close to them last year, and won't come close to them this year.
