Yes, full sky sport’s is required. Sky are trying to skin me
for £122 a month.

Sky Sports football was showing 15 minute highlights of various games, Saturday night / Sunday morning. I recorded 4 of them and only one turned out to be the game it claimed to be. Shocking service.

I would suggest that you look at some past posts that I made long before pundits. Trouble with people like you, you like to bury your head in the sand like many others on here. This club will struggle this season like it or not and it will be due to the lack of investment

No problem Scuba respect your views as well as I do most others on here. Would disagree with the money side of things now days. Vigs for example. Not like the old days when playing was a priority however you can’t blame them for wanting to get financially secure . Have a nice day pal

Taken from this thread where you mention
Pep, Arteta & Eddie Howe

viewtopic.php?t=12952
Did Scuba Diver convince you then?

Not sure what your trying to say but I did post about Carsley last year and copied nobody’s post if that is what your trying to say? Some on here really don’t like the truth good or bad. I would not like to see the club go backwards but at this point and not just because of Saturdays result I think we all struggle mainly through lack of investment as many have already said . It’s as simple as that. No conspiracy theory just plan facts.

What happened to you going for Pep,Arteta, or Howe instead of the world class Lee Carsley to manage such superstars?

I have Nowtv. Using the code NOWSMPCHKDXD I got 3 months Sky Sports including Plus for 30 euro. It worked great apart from it cutting off before the end. This happened on all matches apparently. This code may not work outside of Ireland but with a bit of searching you should find a similar code. I have never paid full.price for nowtv, currently paying 1 euro a month for six months for the Entertainment Pass.

... I can actually see the FA promoting from within, and giving it to Lee Carsley due to his own record with the under 21s'. No problem Scuba respect your views as well ...

Why have you stolen Scuba Divers quote?

Yet, neither of those managers are available. Howe I think would be unlikely to leave his "project" at Newcastle before it's even got going, and I can't see Arteta leaving to part-time manage what is a foreign country to him.

So again, as you are so down on Southgate, despite him having the second best record of any England manager ever, who is it you have in mind who is going to win us the World Cup and/or Euros?

Or, are you just whining because that's your modus operandi in life...

Each and every manager I put forward you will say that there unavailable so I’m in a no win situation with your views on the subject. Every manager is available at the right price and contract it’s weather they choose to accept or not. What I definitely do know is that we need a tactical manager perhaps a little like Venables or Hoddle who are obviously to old now. An international manager can’t buy players so have to make the best of what is available and for me Southgate is sadly lacking in the tactical department

Fair points there fella, and thanks.
Not Everything comes down to money though - anyone who would be wanted for the job, is likely a multi-millionaire anyway..
I agree that (despite his many qualities, which are evident by his record) he has stuff to learn in the tactical realm.

However, we've just beaten Italy home and away so maybe that area is improving too.

As an aside, I can actually see the FA promoting from within, and giving it to Lee Carsley due to his own record with the under 21s'.

Yes your not wrong unfortunately
So you're clear that you want Southgate gone, but can't even come up with one viable replacement for him?
That is rather empty logic and that's an understatement.
Eddie Howe, or the Arsenal managerWould suit, there you go credible enough for you
Has stated Hedy how as an English manager if it’s a foreign manager, Mikel Arteta, Roberto Mancini would be my choice, we need a tactical manager not a media expert

What? You on one. All I put was who I thought would get the job NOT who I wanted way back last year and not like some have thought I’ve jumped on the band wagon,I couldn’t give a toss if Mike Basset got it quite frankly, seems to me you like few others on here just want to make me wrong when I’m actually right.Ok i’m sorry guv it’s a fair cop I’m guilty of this most heinous of crimes of having an opinion.

Scrub that last post, your definitely tuffers,aka Joe. Rumbled by me yet again tuffers. You seem to suffer from an identity crisis, you can get pills for that.

Another Incorrect opinion

Buffering continually - bring back Orient TV .

Same here, other games seem ok

Looks like it’s being streamed on an iPhone!!

Charlton obviously still on dial up Internet.

Is the Orient stream the same as Sky's?

I've got Norman Collier commentating here

Me too! Sent him a text.

Orient Punxx wrote: ↑Sat Aug 17, 2024 12:39 pm Buffering continually - bring back Orient TV .

Same here.

Yes , same here. The buffering is getting on my nerves and ruining the game for us here . If it wasn’t Orient I’d be changing to watch a different game

Buffering here too - plus the pic is a little jerky as well - not great

Got some buffering ahead of kick-off, went out then back in again and it's been ok since.

Very good so far. Even Lemmings does not look juttery.

As an exile I have been impressed by this option. It works well compared to the Orient TV which always ran into issues for me that I gave up trying.

Buffering anyone?

Orient Punxx wrote: ↑Tue Aug 27, 2024 8:44 pm Buffering anyone?

Yes. I prefer DD and Matt, so tried to sych. It worked for a while but then sky kept buffering and then the Orient audio decided to join in, so I gave up with DD.
I've got fibre, so it shouldn't happen butI think there's something about my LG Web browser that slows things up.
