[srd....]

Anyone here from Cleveland? I have to visit the family this weekend and don't think they have Setanta. Is there a pub to watch the game in? Stupid Setanta 8:30 Sunday game. :mad:

the game will be on sky sports one over here so it's highly unlikely it'll be on setanta over there bud.

edit:guess it is on setanta :(

[GPK]

Didn't see this....too early...too late...ah well.

thanks GPK.

Can we just merge Eddie's thread with this one? We usually have one anyways. Thanks

[GPK]

If I merge his thread then the match information post will not be at the start of the thread, so I'd rather not....

I didn't know that. Too bad.

Thanks GPK - you are a true TV resource!

I'm from the suburban area around Cleveland. I don't know of any places that carry Setanta, since most of the Cleveland is Time Warner Cable which does not get Setanta. I'm going to suggest Sopcast for this one, or justintv online. The best place to go is Mulligan's Bar 'n' Grill at the corner of OH 82 and 237 in Strongsville, lots of Chels supporters but only FSC subscribers.

Enjoy your stay.

Thanks. Went to undergard with a guy from Brecksville, actually. I used to live on the East side of the city, and, to be honest, have no clue where Strongsville actually is! But hopefully from GPK's list I should be able to find a pub.

Cry havoc and let slip the dogs of war.

[nicephoras]

Arrgh, all these places open up at 11. Boo to that! I guess its Mulligan's after all, although the drive's not going to be all that fun.

any word on whether we have enough healty cms, or what Mikel's or Lamp's injuries are

Mikel's injury is a mystery. I doubt we will get an explanation. The only information I have is that Joe Cole has an ankle injury and Ashley Cole has a thigh injury.

I got an email from an associate at the club stating that Lampard, Essien and Bosingwa are fit for Sunday. However, I wouldn't put too much stock in that as it's not official.

I guess we'll just have to wait and see!

Thanks GPK - you are a true TV resource!

You know Brook is from Cleveland, PM him.

Also, Pittsburgh is only about 90 mins away. :D

[Eddie26]

Just close mine. I didn't know how close to the game GPK started his thread.

[nicephoras]

Meh - Pittsburgh is the worst city to drive in. Can't stand it. Strongsville it is, I suppose. :sigh: Hopefully the traffic won't be too bad on the way back.

You must mean worst because they drive like small town people. That's what I find infuriating.

Mulligan's is spot on! Only about 30 minutes drive from Cleveland as far as I remember.

Just a quick reminder to people on the language used in this match thread. If you must refer to our opposition by name please note that you should use Sp*rs or T*tt*nh*m.

Otherwise the language filter on my laptop may explode from the foulness. I'm only hoping it's not too late to fix the thread title :D

We hate T*tt*nh*m
