I wouldn't think it would be a problem, I know they didn't check the names on tickets for games at Euro 2000 and Oklahoma said that they didn't check the names at Euro 2004 either.

pg, ESPN in Australia have been showing FA Cup games, so if the game is on at midday UK time, the chances of them showing the game are pretty high.

Where the dickens is the Charles Dickens? 290 Collins St Melbourne (Betw. Elizabeth & Swanston Sts) Is it close to the city? Yep, it a quick walk from Flinders Street Station The other questions I'm not too sure, although I think it would be a very quick cab ride from the Casino to the Charles Dickens.

It's fate SAR, even the wife is saying to go

There is a Celtic game at 2:00 that Sunday morning, so there's a chance that the Keepers Arms will be filled with Celtic fans, meaning we might miss the coverage of the game. Although we could go and exchange notes about Souness So, we all meeting at the Charles Dickens on the 19th?

As the Rovers game against Arsenal on Saturday the 19th of March will be televised at a decent time of night (23:45), I thought it would be a great idea to organise a get together, this time in Melbourne. This gives Australian based Rovers' fans chance for to meet fellow Roverites. We could meet up before the game, have a meal, some beers and then hopefully see a Rovers' home win. You can even make a weekend of it, tell the wife/girlfriend that the shopping is great in Melbourne and then later tell her you're off to the pub Saturday night to watch the football. The only pub I know in Melbourne that would show the game is the Keepers Arms on the corner of Queensberry and Peel Street North Melbourne, but the Melbourne guys might have a better suggestion than that. So how about it? Airfares are cheap and the accommodation wouldn’t be too expensive as the weekend of the 19th isn’t Australian Grand Prix weekend.

Who said that the magic of the FA Cup had gone, Sheffield United 3 - Aston Villa 1. Just hope it's not a sign of things to come.

Here’s another view of Corporations donating money from the Corporations shouldn’t do this all the time point of view. Also this quote might be what cynics (or maybe realists), think the real reason for some of these donations; I would think that the majority of shareholders would prefer that money would be donated to a worthy cause, rather than into the pockets of directors and CEOs.

FFS, the game ESPN chose was Sheffield United V Aston Villa which they're showing at 23:25 AEDST. At least ESPN have a sense of humour, they're showing a replay of the Burnley V Liverpool game a few hours later at 6:30.

Paul, it's usually 5-10 minutes before kickoff.

Team news from the Rovers Offical Site; http://www.rovers.premiumtv.co.uk/page/New...~605409,00.html Only two changes, Johansson on for Short and Stead for Bothroyd. BTW, why is Bothroyd absent, don't remember hearing about an injury?

The problem is that Australia's defense can't defend dead ball situations. You only have to look at the goals conceded during the Venzuela and Ireland game. I will admit he might of been a millimetre offside Maybe that what people called, playing the advantage..... Maybe this line only comes after your bold prediction was way off. All the Aussies here said that it was going to be a close game, and if it wasn't for Skoko shocking shot at goal in the second half or Cahill's missed header.....

Well the Australian team has been announced; Mark Schwarzer, Lucas Neill, Tony Vidmar, Tony Popovic, Stan Lazaridis, Josip Skoko, Tim Cahill, Marco Bresciano, Brett Emerton, Mark Viduka, Harry Kewell. Substitutes: Scott Chipperfield, Ahmad Elrich, Vince Grella, Zeljko Kalac, Steve Laybutt, Jonathan McKain, Kevin Muscat, Mile Sterjovski, Danny Tiatto. My prediction, a 1-1 draw!

Eddie?

Tom Pringle taking basic training

Which one is Blueboy????

No wonder Rovers are in trouble we have the guy on the left playing in our team ..although it does explain last Saturday's performance

Tugay already sent off after a second yellow card

Chatroom down again, and using mIRC to access the chatroom doesn't help either

Grow up? You didn't like it so you spat the dummy and changed the channel? Almost every nation will boo the opposition national anthem, especially in a game between two countries so close together. I know there's a few people who think that Australian's are convicts and knuckle-draggers, but booing the opposing anthem would never happen here. But hey it's different here in Australia, fans from opposing teams can sit next to each other without too much trouble. I just think that there's a simple rule, when it's your anthem, sing it loud and proud, but when it's the opposing teams show some respect and stay silent! As for the game, England never looked like losing and Wales were terrible.

Agree Radagast, they must really desperate after their last album tanked, to cover a dodgy song like "Word Up". Maybe someone should go up to Korn and tell them that their 15 minutes of fame has finished? Also, am I alone in worrying about the amount of very bad cover songs happening at the moment? Happy 64th Birthday John Lennon

Also for fans in Australia, the game is on ESPN this Saturday night at 23:55 AEST.

I would say Designer clothes because that is how pathetic the police are. That is the only way they can describe a football hooligan. So simple way to fix it, dress like this guy Oh, and BTW when you say this; You might not want to post this
