Football in Foreign
I am trying to watch the Liverpool v Man Utd game on FSC. Is it just me or is it in foreign, I know the announcers dont make that much sense at the best of times.

Re: Football in Foreign
Was going to watch it here tomorrow as it is PPV. Was hoping to avoid the result however I am currently watching the Bolton V West Ham game and the rambling broadcaster decided to inject the Man U V Liverpool result into his commentary........................ Why?!?!?! 
With the internet and instantaneous information I can find out the result of any game in minutes if not seconds if I want to.
Why do broadcasters continue to do this in this day and age when people have TIVO etc and might want to watch the game later.
I won't share the result for anyone that may be on another time zone etc.

Just in case you missed the obvious point, some people may have TIVO'd the game or be on a different time zone and want to watch it later. That is why we have the BFT( British football thread) thread, so you don't ruin it for other Brits around the globe
