Default Premiership Football in Australia...

I'm stressed what with the house move on Friday and all that it involves. My home is upside down and well, no longer, my lovely home... It's bleaching down with snow and I am sorting out trampolines and pushing an electric 'Barbie' jeep up the bloody steep hill (that is my garden)... I am stressed beyond what I believed tolerable for the human body...

my husband's main concerns are these:

a) shall i catalogue my CD's and Vinyls alphabetically or chronologically?

b) is it worth taking my ski boots?

c) will i be able to watch the premiership football in Australia, most importantly Newcastle United?

* a) and b) are burning well in the garden as we speak, considering the depth of the snow! Can anyone help me with c) ?????

Yes, you will be able to watch premiership football, but only on foxtel for live games.
They show up to 6 matches a week, so you pretty much get to see your team every other weekend.
For the full foxtel package it costs around $90, but you can get one that includes the sports chanels for around $60.
Hope that helps,

Will.

Leicester fan here so it will be nice to move to the other side of the world where I won't be tempted to throw £26 a week down the drain to watch a bunch of overpaid, underskilled tosspots giving away goals in the last minute!

Won't Newcastle be in the championship next season? Leaving Boro the only North East team in the premiership.
Maybe they will show the derby games with Hartlepool on the telly in Oz.

Yeah but they re-show them all the next day. The problem is trying to use the internet, or watch tv without inadvertently seeing the results.

Even Oz news programs on a sunday morning have an annoying habit of throwing up random scrolling like 'Arsenal Shocker', or 'Chelsea do it again'. And don't even think about trying to use yahoo mail.

Cheers,
JTL
