Its not going to be moved, Its on prime time TV, who the MLS are the slaves of. Unless of course its the network that's forcing a chance.

You sure you lot are not getting confused and Setanta are moving when they are showing the game in the UK to friday rather than some silly time in the morning.

Setanta don't own the rights to the game in the USA, and its still on Thursday at 7:00 on ESPN

any chance of the Columbus game being on Coley ??

i have checked the FSC line up but can't see it at all.

am moving cable companies this week and was wondering if it's going to be on espn..

i'll have to check their website..

no more Setanta for me !!

:cry:
available only on a Dish, either DirecTV or the Dish ~ i have to get Comcast.

well i Could get the dish separate but the rules for the complexes are tough, i think my new apartment faces southwest, but you get such a piss poor deal if you sign up for separate cable and dish.

i can now get a deal for both cable and internet for i think they said was 80 bucks for 6 months and then the internet goes up by 10 dlrs. last deal was 100.00 plus setanta. complicated but the complex had a mini dish which sends out via the cable in the apartments a bit like the hotels, so we had Dish network.

now i have to either separate the dish and the cable if i want setanta OR get a cheap bundle from the cable company.

sadly it's cheap right now.

:cry:

I hope you're mixing in some of the many fine varieties of breaded and fried cheese products we have over here. No American meal is complete without something fried and covered with cheese :lol:

I am in section 105 row 22.

I am flying out as part of a combined work trip and am going to be flying in Sunday night (20th). I was planning on staying at some nondescript boring hotel near my office (Oakville), but am now considering staying at the Delta Chelsea the whole week instead and just commuting down South each day since I will have a rental car.

I am also considering the Wednesday night party. Do y'all think its worth it? Looking forward to meeting fellow Hammer fans!

Yeh on both counts. Come to the Chelsea and the party. The way i see it, if the party sucks it sucks. If its great though and all the players and co are there and i don't go i will be gutted.
