  1. I'm anxious and can't settle but it's only 7pm here so I've a good excuse for not being asleep. Can't wait for the game to come around.
  2. Bloody hell Mick, if you're going to do something like this, do it in the off season. Seriously, take care and get well soon.
  3. I'll be doing the 4am Kick-off at home and have to be at work for the Wednesday lunchtime KO but I'll be taking the day off for the Final and am game for a get-together for that.
  4. The only channel that has the Championship is Bein. Here's the "guide" http://www.livesoccertv.com/channels/bein-sport-connect-canada/ Rotherham game is not listed. Also, I see the Newcastle match is not listed. Was hoping for another meetup for that one.
  5. The London Pub in Vancouver with a select gathering of Vancouver Owls and some Geordies on the other side of the pub. Was nice to finally have a lunchtime (for us) game on TV. Made my Christmas
  6. This event now moved to London Pub 700 Main St Vancouver See you there
  7. I'll be there (but you knew that anyway). Will try to get my son to come too.
  8. I like the hooped socks
  9. Sounds a bit too much like Aussie Rules to me
  10. Thursday 11am local time. Vancouver
  11. There's this on twitter https://twitter.com/owls_ottawa/status/734748156886417408 But maybe that's him?
  12. 4,706 miles each way for me. (Vancouver)
  13. Very familiar feel, my only MINOR improvement would be to have "1867" on there too.
  14. Being so cold that you lost all feeling in your feet.
  15. Years ago I was driving some quiet road in the Cariboo area south of Prince George in British Columbia. Not much traffic on the roads. My car had a custom plate of "SWFC". I become aware of a car behind me for a while, he reaches a good place to pass, pulls out and comes level with me and starts honking his horn. I look across, the passenger is giving the thumbs up and holding a hand written sign saying " Up the owls". Then speeds off up the road never to be seen again. Been in Vancouver 20+ years, know of about a dozen owls but only ever met one blunt in that time.
  16. They chose not to renew his contract http://boxscorenews.com/nasl-offseason-transaction-wire-recap-p110070-108.htm
  17. http://soccer.si.com/2014/05/15/oguchi-onyewu-usmnt-world-cup-camp-jurgen-klinsmann/
  18. Seems the rumours that he would be buying a club this week are true but different club, different sort of football. Of course, he might be buying Wednesday as well. http://www.tsn.ca/cfl/story/?id=442375
  19. Yes, would have been mid to late 60s
  20. I've had my hair cut by him.
  21. Feels like we've turned the corner finally -fingers crossed. Sad to see COG go out but very happy that Helan is back. Funny thing is Robson going to the Blunts. He was here in Vancouver with the Whitecaps at the end of last MLS season. During that time he became very unpopular with both fans and his teammates through basically being an arrogant one-footed wee pipe. He and the Blunts deserve each other. That said hell probably do the job in Div 3 for them. Saturdays kick off is at 7am here. Follow on Player or Twitter. Coming over for the Forest and Watford games- cant wait.
  22. I'm a Season Ticket holder at the Whitecaps. It's fair to say he's not fit in well as one of our "Designated Players" and is the subject of quite a bit of resentment amongst the fans since he's being paid over the average but performing below average. To be fair he's not had good service since the Caps have some issues in midfield. It wouldn't surprise me if the Caps wanted to unload him but I'm not sure hes the player we (SWFC) need up front
  23. 2 years ago: http://www.victoriahighlandersfc.com/news.php?newsid=132but But they don't appear to still be with the team http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Victoria_Highlanders
  24. Agree, very professional dive by Donovan, and Bonjour doesn't help himself by being all arms. But in reality the penalty was given because of the first half dive he did then all the half-time lobbying by Beckham, Keano & Donovan. I'm very interested to see how Richards does at Burnley, he has a lot of "off" games but his speed is great when he decides to use it. I wonder if he even visited Burnley before signing ? he's in for a culture shock!
