    ...and if you have DISH, in which I do unfortunately, then you're screwed out of them altogether and are relegated to out-of-town scorebug-watching (top right hand part of your screen) while watching/having to put up with goddamn Chel$ki take on QPR.

    As for (the alleged availability of) LIVE EXTRA on DISH, I see no log-in page on NBC's LIVE EXTRA site and no link to it on DISH's site at all.

    Has anyone noticed that Gibbs almost seems to be playing as a wingback lately? He spend the majority of his time up on left wing, even when the ball is in the midfield third. Flam generally drops back to take his place

    Far and away the best player at the club. Arsene's transfer policy deserves a lot of criticism, but he nailed that one.

    Anyone else have directv currently watching this game? For me, those channels don't even exist. It's not that I don't get them with my package - because I have the guide showing all channels - there just are no numbers 491-494.

    Is there anyone on this board who wouldn't accept the use of a quick video replay to award us a pk, reduce them to 10 men, and probably give us a 1-0 lead?

    Actually i think he's been dangerous and provided what seems like most of our crosses into the 6 box.

    I'd rather that refs simply not change their standards based on whether something occurred inside or outside the 18-yard box.

    I'm in favor of shrinking the penalty area, personally. A handball at the corner of the box shouldn't warrant a penalty. One at the penalty spot should.

    You really think that's gonna happen before video replay does? :p

    Conceptually, no, but one requires implementing expensive technology throughout the ground. The other requires painting different lines, and could be implemented immediately at all levels of the game.

    Xfinity has handled this whole Xtra Time thing poorly. Utter shambles.

    They really moved the ball fantastically both thru the middle and on the wings. Announcers are trying to play the meme that they are being "stymied" by Burnley but it's poppycock. Burnley are getting scorched and the breakthrough will come.

    I don't see why they can't just have them on actual channels like every other provider.

    Is it too much to ask to actually thump a last place team for once? This team struggles to create quality chances and when they do, they fluff their lines with the finishing. How many blocks-charge downs did Burnley have?

    Good point. Still that part of the laws is just too damn entrenched for >100yrs. Not gonna happen.
