Now all i need to do is find some mates and a venue to watch it! :confused:

This ought to be a great match. Since Setanta got the rights for the SPL in the US from FOX, I haven't really watched an Old Firm derby in a few years, but this one will probably have me going out to see it if I can find a pub in Dallas that's showing this match.
I used to list Rangers in addition to Arsenal under my "Team" header, but seeing as how I can't really keep up with them as easily anymore, I don't (but I will be pulling for them this weekend, though, just so you guys know where I stand).

I'll be staying in the house or in the library on Sunday, so as to avoid the inevitable drunken singing/fighting that takes place after the game in both Glasgow and Greenock.
I hope the game ends in a 1-1 draw with 4 players sent off from each side and several goals disallowed :P
Coach: If you find a good football pub in Dallas, please let me know. My girlfriend is studying there and I'll be going back to visit her next year. It's difficult for me to go there and survive without football. We went to a Dallas Burn game last time I was over, but watching some European football on TV would do nicely as well :D

I’ll be trying to find a pub in London that’s not full of psychotics! :D
Plus I’ll be on my own as the rest of the boys are travelling up for the game.
Tis a hard life.

A friend of mine ventured into the CT on his own for the last Old Firm game and said the atmosphere was superb. I think you should just go there.
I wouldn't be surprised if Big Marv played on Sunday, by the way.
2-0 to the Teds again, Novo and Prso.

By the way, Coach, Senderos is wrong.
Money used to play in goal for St Mirren.

May do! Although the nutters always seem to want to talk to me! I watched the cup game in the sports bar and it was much better. Mixed crowd and a bit of banter flying around. But they don’t have setanta so no league games!

I'll have to speak to young Philippe about this, then. ;)

I’ve had many! Watching the last one in the sports bar was much better with a mixed crowd!

If Marvin plays, then Rangers will win.

Does anyone know of a way to watch the game in the United States? Is it on paperview or anything? They used to show Scottish games on Fox Sports World all the time, but the new Fox Soccer Channel doesn't show any. I'm pretty disappointed. Anyone have any idea how to watch it? I'll be dying to watch it.

Myself and my Peperami shall be attending this glorious victory of good over evil. I'm hoping Bellamy gets a couple of goals.

If marv players for the Huns and breaks down then Rangers should be hammered by the SPL for playing an injuried player...shocking

I suspect we might here a few rounds of 'the pope's a hun' :D. Well, it's true!
Big Marv knows what he doing, well he might not, he doesn't come across as too bright but he has great faith...********! That's his career over!
