Evening all sorrry again for the slight delay. Bloody 3 hour delay at the airport, honestly. "Britain's Favourite Airline" is definately not mine! The show is a tiny bit shorter this wek, only 33 mins. Im liking the bits where they spot funny stuff happeniing that you would usually miss on a normal highlights show - the bit with Dane Richards celebrating the goal that wasnt is funny. Here are the 4 parts. I havnt embedded them tonight I think the show is better in full screen via the youtube page. As ever you can get the other week's episodes from my page on youtube Enjoy! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QFUQf2gOKLI http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DIf7ZhwooqA http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=grcA4hZLLwQ http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NwulWBwRGl8 (parts 3 and 4 are being rendered so if the links dont work they will be ready on youtube in 10 mins or so - just follow the links from my page)
Thanks for the highlights. I look forward to them everyweek just like my fellow serb in Russia.......
I know this has been said often...but once again, thanks so much for rendering these. They are the highlight of my week.
Hello again, hope you've enjoyed the show now it's up. Point taken about broadcasting in the States, it's out of my hands but I guess the more people ask for it, the more chance it has! Thought you might like to know that a viewer has set up a Facebook group for the show, it's here http://www.facebook.com/group.php?gid=4301694068 I guess it's not going to replace the chat here but it is a good way of measuring the interest as we can count friends. As you'll see it's only small at the moment so spread the word, join up and it should grow fairly quickly. Cheers Neil
Thank you very much again! This is the only show that I watch regularly. If you are not receiving as much praise as you were intially for your postings it's because many of us have bookmarked the show in our browser (instead of linking from your bigsoccer posting). Please keep up the good work until the show starts being broadcast in the States (or until you die).
Neil: Thanks for posting on this site! How hard would it be to just replace the show that is currently on the Fox Soccer Channel (in the US) with the one that you are doing? Looks like money saved to me. Everyone seems to agree that the British show is just better.
But I don't want to see the bird from the US show lose her job is there anyway I get her in a side box(like for the hearing impaired) jumping on a trampoline while I watch the UK version?
No way. I like both. If they do anything, it should be to merge them into one much longer show. I wouldn't want to miss any of what they show on either show. (The US version has a lot more video footage than they show on the UK version....and of course the UK version has stuff not on the US version as well.) I use to watch it and still would if they aired it. It was a good show. (John Harkes has always been one of my favorites too.) I have a lot of episodes on VHS still (to be digitized as soon as I can) and am archiving these current shows as well. The more MLS coverage and shows the better. Why watch only one?
From one end of the spectrum to the other Both do have one thing in common though; they were both funny. Its just that ones humor is intentional, while the other was unintentional. Wrap was the Plan 9 from Outter Space of soccer programming.
just curious if you were able to capture this show tonight, since they moved it to thursays and shortened it a bit.
Not a bad show tonight. The half hour format is better imho. No guests Spoilers coming up: There was a piece on 'Magic Water' and they wanted to know why the crowd were chanting it. Angel was talking about how much he hates NFL lines on the pitch and how it takes him two days to recover after playing on artificial turf.
Awesome, we need more public criticism of FieldTurf to get it removed from the league. Unfortunately, looks like RBNY and RSL are out of luck until their new parks open, but we need to get something done about the pitch situation in Toronto
Hey All Yes, this week's show was aired last night so I guess the links may be up at some point today. Remember to keep us posted on any stories you've got about your team, or feedback, or anything at all really! Email is soccerusa@five.tv Happy Friday to you all. Neil
Hi Neil Congrats on the show. Could you or someone connected to the show arrange for online access? Kinsellagem has done a great job and it's been appreciated but if they can't put the show up then no one has access and this week it's not online as yet and the last two weeks were late because Kinsellagem was having a life lol which is fair enough. No offense but I run a website where people are moving to watching the US show because the UK shows availability is uncertain. Thought I'd just ask The FSC version is online straight after it airs via mlsnet Thanks
I appreciate your comment but as you all know, our show is being posted unofficially, and therefore we are in the hands of whoever chooses to post it, and when their work pattern allows it. Sorry I can't help further, I hope you all get to see it soon. What website is it by the way, I'd like to read the comments?
My opinion is that the US version is quite inferior to the UK version in the entertainment value category.
Im sorry guys I am having some problems this week. I hope to get the show up soon but I have some work issues that I have to sort out. Sorry (I mean it) Kinsella
