Saturday’s game live in the US
For my American readers I note that Saturday’s crucial game with West Ham is live on Fox Soccer Channel at 10ET. It is also being shown in Canada.
I am surprised that it is not being shown live on television at home. The press are building it up but obviously Sky thinks Watford v Everton a more inspiring fixture. At least it will be a 3pm Saturday game though which makes a pleasant change.
My Saturday’s during the season normally take on two moods and we are supposed to be going out with a new couple we met recently for drinks on Saturday night. They will either love me or loathe me.
Pards and Curbs seem to have a pact not to talk about each other and their respective teams but old egg-head seems to want to stoke the fire I see. Really I go from being excited to anguished as the game gets closer.
Iain Dowie was today appointed Coventry’s new manager and looking like he was new Leicester owner Milan Mandaric’s choice for Walkers Stadium.
Coventry managing director Paul Fletcher said: "Iain was incredibly impressive on the occasions we met and there is no doubt that he was by far the strongest candidate in all the criteria we set." (more)
Those words have a familiar tone to them don’t they? Chicago Addick wishes him all the best anyway. ¶ 15:04
