Out of interest gents, any rumours on the Royals coming over pre-season? None, aside of course from those initiated and fomented by...ME! I'll keep you posted. :wink: I live about an hour east of Los Angeles Having lived in Los Angeles myself, "an hour east" could mean Ontario...or it cou...

Do I have the time translation right? E.T. = UK - 8 hours? So PT = UK - 11 hours? At least until daylight savings time anyway. Not even close! New York is 5 hours behind; West Coast is 3 hours behind that; West Coast is 8 hours behind the UK --one full third of the globe, wouldja believe? Oh, and c...

Don't you have a football pub that's Setanta-subscribed and open for bidness for early games? I live about an hour east of Los Angeles. The best football pubs are in Santa Monica, which is even further away from me. I don't mind watching on the computer, although I love it when I can see a game on ...

Oops! This is what happens when you try to get by on four hours sleep a night with a new baby. I was already planning to be up at 1am PT tonight kicking my feet up, feeding the little one and watching some footy. Do I have the time translation right? E.T. = UK - 8 hours? So PT = UK - 11 hours? At le...

Had a hard time finding this thread. Just had to find it to make sure I am ready for tomorrow's match.

So the game is at 15:00 UK which is 4:00AM ET Live? I don't have Setenta, so I will likely look to catch it live via P2P on the computer.

I will go 2 - 0 Reading.

How about Philadelphia Freedom for Bobby Convey, since he was born in Philly?

Anyone else care to join in and peg a song for your favorite Royal?

I like the idea of each player having their own song played after they score. They do this here in the States, when Shaun Alexander scores a TD they play 'Sweet Home Alabama' since he played college ball at Alabama. Have the team do some research and pick a song for each player that suits them.

Great information! Thanks for taking the time to track this down and post it week in and week out.

I think it's a matter of small sample size. Five games won't tell you much. And football is about the entire team, which I think has stepped up quite a bit since Sonko went down.

After this month's voting (where the top five players are all Royals) I bet they add the code to only allow 5 votes per IP or something like that. They have been flooded!

10 more votes for Coppell (up to 38%) now. And I went Lita as well.
It looks like Sidwell and Coppell are locks.

Great pictures and video Ben. Felt like I was there all the way from Los Angeles!
