Yeah, that's right. I'm sure I paid something like a tenner a month for Setanta. So it does work out a bit cheaper but just wondering if you get all the Sky Sports channels with Virgin and they offer ESPN for free, why is the same offer not available to Sky subscribers? Must be a reason for it. How much does the Virgin XL package cost compared with a similar Sky package?
How does that work then? Do you get Sky Sports on the Virgin Media XL package? Why are Sky asking for extra money when Virgin Media can offer it for free?
I don't believe that for a second. I'm sure Gannon has signed Ruddy as he has the experience of working with him before and after evaluating Fraser has come to the conclusion that he needs a new number one. I'm sure Ruddy will be our starting keeper in the SPL.
Nah, that's not entirely correct mate. There is work on the floodlights being carried out but the pitch needs more time to knit together also. Flow stated as such somewhere in another thread.
Flow stated on another thread that the grass will still need the extra couple of weeks to really knit together and they didn't want to possibly undo all the hard work and effort that has gone into this by playing on it on the 6th. He also stated that there is some work being carried out on the floodlights at this time also.
Not too sure of the situation but I'd be trying to get at least some of these guys onto longer and improved deals before anyone comes sniffing around i.e. the Tims!
He was also up in Motherwell with Stewart Henderson of The Delgados for some documentary and was taken to the Electric Bar quiz. Think he even had a mention on his next show for Gus Allan as he was introduced to him that night!
Do you think we'll still bring in a wildcard signing before Wednesday? Would like to see a centre half or right back brought in before this tie also. Being greedy I know!
On the subject of the option to buy on the goalie, I don't think it really matters if we have an option or not. Unless Everton will accept about £50K we've no chance of getting him here permanently.
Reckon this guy will be our number 1 as he's worked under Gannon before so he should know all about him. Let's be honest, Fraser was the back-up Inverness goalie so I'm glad we have someone else onboard in that department.
Aye, much rather they burned down the Shysberry!
TBH I'm quite gutted that the game isn't at Fir Park. Any idea how the pitch is settling in? I thought it would've been playable for the 6th August.
