At least Fox gives you 3 or 4 matches a weekend.
Thoughts on the season so far?
Sadly I have had to miss so much of it thanks to Setanta taking over and going with DirectTV. Fox Soccer Channel is pathetic. I find myself following "Match Cast" at work just to keep up.
As a Manchester United supporter I am becoming very worried about Rooney staying healthy and all else I can say is...
Cristiano Ronaldo

wow!

Not good enough.
Its like trying to follow the NFL season by just seeing what the NFL network gives us.
Thankfully Setanta may be a sports tier by next year on most cable systems.
That's what the internets are for. Sky News is carried on Fox if I'm not mistaken.
By no means am I claiming that Fox offers comprehensive Premiership coverage, but that you can't exactly expect the channel to do so.
Yes, SN is on FSC.
But just to be clear my main issue is with Setanta taking over and not handling the cable aspect of it correctly.
By the way...here is the FSC broadcast schedule. This is pathetic.

This season has made me resort to watching streams since Arsenal picked up a deal with Setanta so now I get to see less and less Arsenal matches.
FSC does very well though with what it broadcasts. They are the reason I survive.
Terrible non-call on the offsides by Kalou. Big teams get big breaks I guess
Agreed.
And indeed they do.
Ive missed quite a bit of actual matches, due to the fact my wife changed our cable around, and i dont even get fox soccer channel anymore.
What i have been following is mostly online and recaps.
I too worry about rooney, he is sort of the grant hill of the EPL it seems.
especially Chelsea at home. kinda like how ManYoo get at least a penalty a game at Old Trafford.
but who cares cause we're top of the league???
Fergussonnnn, are ya listening?
can ya keep our trophy glistening?
we'll come back in May
to take it away
walking in a Wenger wonderland
:]
I'm happy Arsenal is finishing the year on top, hopefully Van Persie will give them a boost in the new year to keep pace with Man U. Most of their games are on Sentanta and I'm not playing ing 15 bucks a month for one channel.
If you think FSC is bad, FSC Canada is worse. On boxing day the Arsenal match advertised wasn't even showed in Canada. Half of the matches advertised for FSC don't broadcast in FSC Canada and instead, they play some old Serie A match.
Most of the upcoming Champion League matches involving English teams look good as well:
Arsenal v. Milan
Liverpool v. Inter
Man U v. Lyon
I have no idea why they play Italian games when no one cares about them.
Yeah or French league...
I understand that FSC is only drawing from a limited pool of options game wise but geez...

I care about the Serie A (which makes me part of the minority), but it's so predictable and very boring most of the time. A hyped up Milan v Juventus match could very well end up 0-0 about 90% of the time. Italian teams play much better in the Champions League
I'd rather watch any EPL game than watch a Serie A game. GOLtv also has good matches on, especially the German Bundesliga. It's too bad their commentators are the worst I've ever heard on any channel.
EPL, La Liga, Bundesliga, and then it's a throw up between the french league and the Italians
and even in the CL, only AC Milan show up to play.
Chelsea v Liverpool playing right now. Both teams look like they forgot how to play football.
That was ugly....
Damn, Man U were regulated today. Hopefully the Gunners can open a 5 point lead tomorrow.
If Torres didn't get injured for Spain i think Liverpool would have won that, there was a good few chance which Torres would of put away.
Bet on it. We're down to the bones but there's no way we let a chance to go 5 pts clear go by us.
Still have a ways to go but today was the best result the Gunners could have asked for.
Here's to SAF having a few tricks up his sleeve
