We could have our first ever hooligan fight today with the mighty Leigh RMI (first time mighty and Leigh RMI have been in the same sentence

) against the mighty Barrow (same goes for mighty and Barrow

), as in the red/white corner of Leigh RMI we have bababui and in the blue/white corner of Barrow we have sdpm100.

The loser might end up going down, as Scarborough have almost overcome the 10-point deduction they got for going into administration.

Did you walk through the turnstyles 250 times????

If it wasnt so early in the morning I would drown my sorrows in some Johnny Walker Blue.

I think they'll lose on Tuesday as well, pity I'm working as they play Blyth Spartans one of the more famous names of non league football.

I would hardly call that sad. You are one of the last original-make Englishmen.

Do they let you have personal days off?

I have no idea what one is so I'd say no lol, I get 4 weeks per year holidays. In my working life I've had 1 week off sick and that was years ago I was working for this firm on a 1 year contract and in the contract it allowed me 1 week on full sick pay so I had the last week of the contract off as a sick week, wasn't sick just thought blow it I'm going home (was working away from home down south)

In America you usually get X days of 'personal time' to take care of what ever business you have to take care of as well as vacation time.

Raderick · 03-10-2007, 03:27 PM

People need to find a way to watch the United-Boro match. It was an awesome show that could had gone either way.

Nope, if anything come up work would give me time off or I'd swap a shift with someone.

I realise this is a different type of football, but I am so excited that Setanta are going to show Aussie Rules games LIVE in the UK for the first time ever (probably it is anyway).

Code:

SPORT: AFL Live Sydney vs West Coast
On: Setanta Sports 2 (539)    
Date: Saturday 31st March 2007 (starting in 20 days)
Time: 11:00 to 15:00 (4 hours long)

Live Aussie Rules as the Sydney Swans last years runners-up face last years winners the West Coast Eagles Football Club in what is a rematch of the Grand final in what is going to be a tight fought match.
(Live)

As my aunt/uncle and two sons live in Adelaide, I follow Port Adelaide.
We are in a family and friends tipping competition, which is good fun.

On: Setanta Sports 1 (538)    
Date: Sunday 1st April 2007 (starting in 21 days)
Time: 05:30 to 09:30 (4 hours long)

Live action from the AFL as Western Bulldogs take on Geelong Cats at the Telstra Dome.

I need to get in their good books though as with the price of season tickets going down next season for Wigan Athletic games I'm thinking of getting a season ticket and some games I'd need time off work to go and watch but don't really want to use my holidays up watching football.
