I don't usually watch the scottish games, but watched celtic yesterday and hearts now, I'll also be watching community shield later. Its so nice to have competitive football back and this week is going to drag so hard.

Charity Shield today, traditional curtain raiser to the season.

I couldn't be less interested if I tried!

I couldn't give less of a excrement about where a player comes from or how much he earns. If he's a good player I'm going to want to watch his team. It's odd how much some people care about the wages of other people. Jealousy I presume.

Just had a quick glance at the Community Shield. As BigChris stated, lots of foreigners and in a few minutes i saw a player writhing around on the floor, before jumping up and sprinting away, a player arguing the toss with the ref, when the ref was spot on and to top it all off, lot's of Mcdonalds ads in partnership with the F.A. trumpeting their alliance and their great efforts toward community football. Yeah right.

Quickly turned it off.

Not so much jealousy, as incredulity that the game is now so lop sided, with little used foreign imports earning millions a year, whilst traditional clubs such as ourselves struggle to survive. It's all wrong.

However..those of us who subscribe to Sky Sports et al have no grounds for the state of English football and how the rich get richer and poor get poorer. We're feeding them.

Just subscribed to BT Sport HD for the first time, now watching Arsenil v Chelsea, the picture is amazing.

Been watching MLS for my football fix and really enjoy it, crowds are lively and football reminds me more of old style English football then any other league, lots of blood and thunder, lack of 'cheating, plenty of goals.

Pleased that German football is back, my second team St Pauli was shown on BT Sport Europe today and won 2-1

Couldn't care less about how many foreigners are playing. Not worth moaning about, whatever your opinion about play acting etc the fact is they are better than the english players, especially in the top flight.

The charity shield wasn't too exciting but nobody expected anything other than that.

BT is great if you like football in general, whether it's worth the money, I'm not sure but then is anything?

Two levels of subscription to B..T sport cheaper without European matches,get our matches free if you have B.T. broadband,but you have to register with them and be quite insistent you don't want Europe matches.


Give a man a fish and you feed him for a day,teach a man to fish and you give him an excuse for him to escape from the wife and kids for the weekend and drink lots of beer.

Just cancelled my BT Sport after they said it was going to cost a fiver a month. Won't have SKY in the house as Murdoch owns it, therefore I don't watch live football at all unless it's on BBC or ITV - and that's a rarity for me. Still watch MOTD, but they could do with sacking the "pundits" and getting more match action in, and cutting down on numerous action replays from different angles for the same reason.

On the terraces every week though. I need to be at a game to enjoy it, Luddite that I am.


No attempt at ethical or social seduction can eradicate from my heart a deep burning hatred of the Tory party. So far as I'm concerned they're lower than vermin. Aneurin Bevan.
