James; Brown, Ferdinand, Terry, A Cole; Walcott, Barry, Lampard, J Cole; Rooney, Heskey.

Thats the team.

Not too bad, that's only two players I wouldn't have put in. It still amazes me how Bentley doesn't get in the side ahead of Beckham or Walcott and unsurprisingly the chosen one Rooney isn't left out.

Nice to see Emile in there though, hope he does well tonight.

And the build up is free to air now.

EDIT - And its gone. B*stards.

Setanta Sports is a joke. It needs to be scrapped.

I can't believe it's not on BBC, ITV or Sky Sports.

Some small time channel goes and takes all the rights to it. Farce.

Everybody ought to refuse to watch it.

Tbh, do you really want to watch it?

They paid for the rights.

So its not a farce.

The whole Setanta thing is boring now, give it a rest.

If I could afford to I would, but can't, I'm saving every penny I can. Saving for a car.

We can say what they like but no one can stop them bidding for events. Their Premiership coverage is excellent price wise. They only have the games Prem Plus had, Sky charged £7 per game, Setanta charge £12 a month, where you get 4 / 5 games. However, its when they show England games that last year we wouldn't have had to pay for that annoys me. Football fans are having to pay MORE money to watch thier national side.

And when they start charging £1M just for the rights to show highlights of 1 game they take this piss.

Why is it a joke? It's not their fault the BBC/ITV didn't pay the money for the package, or bid for the highlights (according to some reports).

It seems to me that the majority of people who seem pissed off with Setanta are those with Sky who have only just realised that Sky Sports is a rip-off and want everything to be on there so they can justify paying such a stupid price (this isn't aimed specifically at you, it's just the main thing I've noticed since Setanta got more matches). At the end of the day you get just as much football on Setanta and it's a lot cheaper. I don't understand why everyone's complaining. If you want to complain to anyone than have a go at Sky for keeping the price of their Sports package the same even though they have half the games they used to. They're the ones that're ripping people off. That's not even my Virgin Media biased view, I've had this opinion since Setanta first got the rights to Premiership games last season.

Bentley is overrated.

I want to see someone on the wing who will run at people with pace and scare the shit out of 'em.

The whole "chosen one" is boring too, but people still go on about that.

But Walcott can't do anything other than that productively. He has no end product :dunno:

Yes. Just like Sky have paid for the rights before. The BBC/ITV didn't match the price for highlights, with reports suggesting that only one of them bidded and it was a ridiculous small amount because they were trying to "emotionally blackmail" Setanta.

Just reports mind, but I don't see why everyone seems so insistant that Setanta are the only ones to blame. It's getting REALLY boring. Admit you're being ripped off by Sky Sports and get over it :whistle:

What or Whos the chosen one?

:unsure:

It wasn't aimed at you.

But if you read the thread and other threads, I'd take a guess at Rooney and probably Fryatt. :P

Posted
Hmmm, I wonder who that was aimed at? lol

But seriously, do you not think Rooney deserves to be dropped Bert?

As it goes, I do.

But he's not has he? Moaning about it just makes it worse.
