We took Stamford Bridge in half a minute,,
We took Old Trafford with the bastards in it,,
With Hatchets and hammers,,
Stanley knives and spanners,,
We showed the bastards how to fight,,
If you can't take Chelsea in half a minute,,
Then you aint a Le-ee-ds Fan...
LEEDS LEEDS LEEDS LEEDS LEEDS LEEDS...

FSC has a lot of games but not enough. and they mostly play just EPL and Serie A. I rarely catch champions league on it. Sometimes they play Champions League on ESPN though. which is always nice to see... futbol in HD.
by the way, i dont think anyone can beat liverpool right now. they have been straight dirty all year long, especially my boy yossi benayoun |
fox soccer is . setanta sports has so much more. too bad it's only on directv |

ive played soccer for 10 years
to me its deff one of the best sports to play
you dont really need a special tallent in order to be good
cause each position is just as valuable as the next
as for watching it alot of the games are really boring mainly cause the field is too big and it takes a while for the team to get their ball down there alot of the time
world cup i do watch tho |

Rumor is that ESPN is trying to buy the rights to start airing EPL. If you've noticed they've even started showing EPL highlights on SportsCenter occasionally. |
yeah, they actually had it in the regular top 10 plays. lennon's goal against arsenal was 2nd in the top 10 last night. usually they show the highlights to tout espndeportes.com. i'm not sure if it's to highlight the website or to show footy highlights.
i think espn in other parts of the globe show epl and la liga on the weekends. it would be great if they had it here in the states, but it'd be tough considering everything that's scheduled on weekends, like college basketball and college football during the footy season. one thing i can definitely do without on the deuce is world series of poker EVERY SINGLE night. i wish they would show champions league matches instead at 2 am EST; i don't care if they're tape delayed or whatever. here's to hoping the worldwide leader snags some matches. |

It won't be that tough to fit most EPL games on ESPN's television schedule since the big games between the big 4 (Man U, Arsenal, Chelsea, Liverpool) are shown here at 7 AM EST. Most games are on at 10 AM with a few starting at noon.
Serie A would be easy to schedule on ESPN since the majority of the games are at 9 AM EST.
As for La Liga(don't know about the other countries), their games would really conflict with college sports since they tend to be on at 11 AM EST or later. |
