The match kicks off from SJP at 12:30 p.m. ToonTime. In the States, the lads will be on live (7:30 a.m. EST) on FSW. For Greenie, the match will be shown again at 10 a.m. Denver time (noon EST) And if the match is REALLY good, one can watch it for a third time Saturday at 8 p.m. EST.
Ummmm, no. The match will DEFINITELY be shown here at the Greeniepad live at 5:30AM. No waiting for tape delay around here!
Re: Re: Toon-Chelsea [R] (1 March on FSW live) So does this mean you will get up early.... ....or just pull the all-niter?
Re: Re: Re: Toon-Chelsea [R] (1 March on FSW live) Well I probably won't be getting home until midnight tonight, later if we get dumped on by snow like we have all week... that means 5 hours or so of getting ready with the Broon. Side note, if only ESPN Classic would show us Yanks what they show to their canadian audience. At 4AM MT the Canucks get the 1974 FA Cup Final, Toon v Scousers. Yeah I know the result (sigh), but it sure could make for a good warmup for seeing our crushing of Chelsea. After all, if you've stayed up all night nobody can accuse you of drinking in the morning, right? Not that I'm ashamed of my 8AM drinking during Toon matches, or anything. Speaking of 8AM games, I wonder if I'll be able to stay conscious through the 8AM Hammers-Spurs match.
KO NEWCASTLE line-up: S Given, A Hughes, A O'Brien, J Woodgate, O Bernard, N Solano, K Dyer, G Speed, H Viana, A Shearer, C Bellamy CHELSEA line-up: C Cudicini, M Melchiot, W Gallas, J Terry, C Babayaro, J Gronkjaer, J Morris, F Lampard, M Stanic, J Hasselbaink, E Gudjohnsen
How is it that soccernet.com's commentary is ahead of FSW? Methinks our feed isn't quite so live as we would like it to be.
Not the prettiest match but yet another 3 points at home, best of all putting us dead even in second with the prawn sandwich crowd, and 5 behind the Arse. Looks like I'll be waking up at 5AM on Sunday to catch the Gooners-Addicks match. C'mon, Charlton! We're also now 7 points clear of 5th place. Fantastic debut from Woodgate, I'm quite impressed at how easily and smoothly he transitioned into the defense for our team. Viana's through ball to Bernard was true beauty.
Just returned from the fortress and again another great victory for the mighty toon army. Your right greenie, viana's through ball was pure class and that alone justifies the £8million spent on him. Hopefully he can earn himself a regular place on the team sheet from now on. Nice to see Wooda's slotted straight into the defence, which we all should of expected seeing as he's been with the squad for the last month. Roll on the Boro
I wasn't up this morning, but just saw the replay. Brilliant. Woodgate in the back seems to have made the other lads on defense step up as well. BTW, any thoughts on Bramble as sub in midfield?
Bramble was just in there as a destroyer. he and Griffin came in as Wor Bobby made the rare defensive sub at the end of the game. And then Ameobi came in.
