    I'll be happy with a draw from this to consolidate the unbeaten run. I reckon we could get a 1-1 with a good defensive performance, Danny to score naturally.

    The provider is important - as I mentioned earlier, they block it at DNS level (when you request a site like www.my-illegal-stream.com you consult a directory that ties that up with an IP address). What this means is that going through their network they can see what sites you request and block known IP addresses. A VPN will normally circumvent this as the data is 'tunnelled' and encrypted though someone else, so they cant see what you are doing.

    Sky, Virgin & BT are the worst for blocks, for obvious reasons. I use a smart DNS provider that I set on the router (so set and forget it) - so all my requests go through them, and I appear to be from another country so the stream is returned to me. My belt and braces is a VPN that I have on my router (so it can apply to all devices in the house). I don't like using a VPN though as it can really slow down your internet connection. Virgin also throttle some known VPN providers at certain times so streams become unwatchable. Smart DNS is the way forward...trust me :)

    Can we get Smallbone and Diallo on whatever Obafemi is on? He’s looking swole as **** on the Saints Instagram story today.

    Matchday!

    I know you what you all want to know.

    I won the dishwasher game today with ease - a good 5 or 6 seconds to spare.

    We’ve got this. 0-2.

    Wonder if Vesty will.keep his place or if he'll think he's not right for this one? Can't imagine him faring well in a high line against Chelsea.

    Thought it was tomorrow, for some reason. I’m actually not doing anything much at 3.00pm today, but obviously if I do decide to spent £14.95 to watch tv in my living room, we’ll be 2-0 down inside 20 minutes, and I’ll switch off. Hm.

    Best thing is to watch the racing from Ascot, whilst neurotically checking the score on my phone every few minutes. That’s the only way we’ll get anything from this game. You’re all welcome.

    Few local pubs showing the game, I think I'd rather support one of them with my £15 than BT/SKY. I do have iptv but it's been so hit and miss lately.

    Yeah I thought at the time that this PPV will drive more people to the pub.

    Would be interested to know how many people end up purchasing it. Don't think BT are subject to FOI unfortunately.

    I got an e-mail recently advising that BT Sport was increasing by £4 per month. Yet they want an extra £15 for a match. No thanks.

    Still Zed lol.

    Been doing a load of moving network stuff this week and made sure I spoke about routers (root-ers) not rout-ers and asked for the “stay tus “ not stat-us of things lol.
