    Th
    Thanks BB. We've checked this out and apparently FoxSports lost the rights to EPL live games in Australia this season (strange given both Sky and Fox are part of the Murdoch empire). I think your link was just showing the fixtures generally where they track possession and shots on target etc. Think I may just listen in bed to Jon Marks...

    Strange that - my brother in law lives in Sydney and watches the games on tv. He's a Boro fan and we had a chat about the match this season.
    You could always fire up the laptop and watch on cricfree...

    Thanks BB. So I think Fox lost the rights to another provider called Optus. Guess your brother-in-law pays for Optus but my host doesn't...

    The match is on BT Sport, not Sky, meaning that if there was a deal still in place between Fox and Sky in Australia, it wouldn't matter in relation to this match. The last time we were at home to a team called United on BT Sport, we won 3-1 - hope that's a good omen.

    looks good to me BB. Just hope they stay disciplined and avoid getting involved with any silliness.

    I imagine we will need Gomez on top form today but he rarely lets us down. C'mon u'orns <cheers>

    Our bench looks ok as well. Cathcart/Prodl if we need to kill the game, Success/Okaka if we need to chase a deficit (hope not of course). But I'm getting a bit bullish here.

    Despite WHU missing AC, think I might even prefer him to play v another pacy striker up against the CBs....

    Maybe not mind....

    Chelsea 3 Swansea 1
    Crystal Palace 1 Middlesbrough 0
    Everton 2 Sunderland 0
    Hull 1 Burnley 1
    West Brom 2 Bournemouth 1

    Other results not too bad for us either really...

    Mex as you say no bad thing Boro and Swansea getting sucked back in. Of the 6 it would take four of them to all go on a run to trouble us. And can't see Leicester getting much from a visit to Liverpool.

    15 Swansea 26 24
    16 Middlesbrough 26 22
    17 Crystal Palace 26 22
    18 Leicester 25 21
    19 Hull 26 21
    20 Sunderland 26 19

    Bilic looks like he could spit blood.

    Great start....

    That was a brilliant pass from Cleverley in the lead up...
