Don't have any info right now except to add that:
It doesn't appear on inDemand's PPV listings either.
The local pub - Lucky Bar - has it on at 10:00am SDD, don't know if they are showing the taped earlier live Setanta feed or a taped PPV broadcast...

DirecTV is offering the Sheffield Utd/Fulham game on Sunday, but no Man Utd/Fulham game Saturday.

Well, looks like it might be Lucky Bar for me unless we find out that DirecTV is showing the game.

No update on DirecTV, but I'll be at Summers to watch this LIVE at 7:30am.

Pro: Summers is in Arlington, making it really easy to get there vis-a-vis Lucky.
Con: It's a 7:30 am start. The last time I had this option, I watched at home at 10:00 am (and will do it again if the game is on DirecTV).
I can't even tell you how to identify me if I'm there. I've been going through my rotation of shirts in past weeks to find out which one will bring good luck. Obviously the answer is none. Might be time to go back to the old tried-and-true Umbro from the Treble season.

I'll wear mine, if you wear yours. :D
Yeah, my girlfriend lives in Reston so it's easy to get to those early morning weekend matches now.
So, the Premiership kit or the Champions League kit? Premiership kit it is. :D

Well if it's on DirecTV -- at any time -- I'm definitely staying home for it. Money better spent and I can always Tivo and watch when I get up.
But to answer your earlier question Motterman, it would be the Premiership jersey.
