Great to see Liverpool well represented for England

DK to fenerbahce, if it's true then sad we couldn't keep him.

Will the group stages be live on sbs? or Foxtel?

/\/\ not sure? i think only a few games are on free to air. foxtel have a deal where you can join with no contract, so probably worth to pick it up for this month. nba finals and euros..

Anyone catch the charity match between Man U and Real Madrid legends?

Was good fun to watch. Thanks to Luke for tweeting it out.

Heaps of games live on Setanta

 

[Warney]

Funny I remember wholeheartedly congratulating Utd and it's supporters last season on the equivalent thread. Warney the fanboy couldn't bring himself to reciprocate when City won the cup and neither an ooneil now. I'm sure I was full of congrats when u won the charity shield! Not even through gritted teeth ooneil??
And they call us bitter... Wonder if I should pimp my page like he did, Scholes is back, 'the response', Darren Gibson is a red etc etc

By the way - check this out - in our state or provincial newspaper....

Sorry for being a month late mate, but fantastic win.. the greatest final day we will ever see without a doubt. It's not that i couldn't bring myself to it, its that i've been a combination of busy and quite sick. After Wednesday (this week) i will be back on the forums regularly (have two exams to finish first). And the last bits, not very nice mate. I'll give the credit where it's due and say that City were easily the better side this year.. better?

Pretty Disspaointed with SBS coverage of the Euros this Year

Apparently they are showing only 8 Games throughout the Whole Comp and i don't think all are live.

But pretty sure you can catch the Highlights on SBS 2 every night at 5:30

yeah Setanta have all the rights in Australia to show the games live. SBS 2 have the highlight show and from what i've heard a game from each week of games.. they played Poland v Greece yesterday..

 

[AyiosYiorgos]

SBS are broadcasting a few of the games on delay. They will have 2 quarters, one semi, and the final live. The other games are Poland vs Greece (last night), Spain vs Italy (9:30 tomorrow night on SBS Two), France vs England (9:30 Wednesday night), and Germany vs Netherlands (9:30 Friday night).

That's all I needed to hear Warney. All good. Glad your better and hope the exams go well... have u seen some of the City/United fan videos from the last day... V funny!!!

Hope the exams go well....

 

[ljandkg]

We're getting every game live here. If u think about it NZ gets so much better sports coverage than Oz... kinda spoilt, or u guys are getting ripped....

ahaha certainly can't avoid it, most of the boys i go to school with are tearing into me still (standard united hate) so i'm not hiding from anyone! Can't wait for next season though! Kagawa a good signing and hopefully they can land any of the ones the media are suggesting- Baines, Modric, Lewandowski.. and cheers mate!

 

[ljandkg]

Not much City talk on transfers... we need a decent back up CB and also a good winger....

what are your views on Savic?

News straight out of Bayern (think i read it on foxsports) is that they are in talks with City for Dzeko and apparently they're interested in trading Muller for him. Thoughts?

In United related news, Nick Powell officially signed last night, good pick-up but i expect him to be sent out on loan next season.. Kagawa looking good too!

 

[ljandkg]

He's a mistake waiting to happen at the moment but he's young... Currently we're strong with Komps and Lescott, then there's a big drop off to Kolo Toure who's 2nd rate now and Savic.
I hope they keep Dzeko but we need a quality winger with a good cross to make the most of him...

 

[BoondasH1]

Harry Redknapp leaves Tottenham, both parties couldn't agree on a new contract. David Moyes name has been thrown around for the position.

 

[ljandkg]

I'm stunned by that...he was a quality manager....would Moyes do any better cos the owners don't throw their money around there...

 

[rishgoon]

I think Moyes would be a good candidate, he's done very well at Everton on an absolute shoe string budget. Would have much more money to spend at Sp*rs.

 

[rishgoon]

So heres hoping Moyes stays at Everton

 

[ooneil]

Outside of football Harry Redknapp must be a very strange fellow....

Perhaps he will land at Swansea or Norwich.
