So Rooney and Scholes have both lost their appeals and will both miss the first three games of the season. I thought the decision to send Rooney off was pretty ridiculous, but the English FA's decision to uphold the sending off and confirm the ban is even more ridiculous. I'm sure the Man Utd fans already strong paranoia about the FA will be boosted by this.
Can't wait for Saturday, I'll be in the recliner nice and early preparing for a weekend of EPL. By my counting it'll be possible to watch 8 of the 10 games on the first weekend armed only with DirecTV, Tivo, FSC and Setanta. And that will rise to 9 per week after September 16th when Setanta will be adding a second channel on DirecTV for them to use when they have the rights to two concurrent live games.
And I'll have to watch the 4 Bundesliga games on GolTV too.
Kickass.
