Do you happen to remember that Scottish flick (or maybe it just takes place there) where a lower division club brings in a ‘bad-boy’ washed up player, but revived his career and gets to the Scottish cup final in the process? I really enjoyed it, but I can’t remember what it was called... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Starred Glasgow Rangers legend Ally McCoist (who in the movie was a former Celt*c player), Robert Duvall and Michael Keaton. Bit dodgy acting and accents but a light watch if bored to tears and nothing to do, LOL. Ams1984 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cheeta Posted March 18, 2020 Share Posted March 18, 2020 Don't know why it came up but there was an extended highlight reel on YouTube of the '86 FA Cup Final, a final I vividly remember. Saturday (?) AM, the television cranked, me on maybe 2 hours sleep and still buzzing and the Old Man hung over and as sour as lemons bleating at me about all this soccer nonsense. Liverpool-Everton. Rush & Dagleish vs Lineker & Sharp and Grobbulaar at his flakiest (as I remember it anyway). All sort of came apart for Everton as the match got on but recall coming away with my impressions of Rush and Lineker being affirmed. Quite the year '86. Celtic took the league at the death if I recall, Liverpool with the double and best of all Canada off to the World Cup Finals that summer. Applogies if I got that wrong but that's how it all comes to mind. Quite the year. Have some CPL matches on disc that redhat gave me. Need to dig those out. nolando and toontownman 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There were sequels?!? Netflix is telling me Ultras drops Friday and The English Game just glitches out before it can even load an info screen. toontownman 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could OneSoccer/CPL/CBC make some games from last year available on CBC, say Saturday afternoons, over the next few weeks? People might appreciate the chance to see some sports as a break from COVID-19 coverage. Also, a chance to show off the league ahead of the 2020 season (we hope ).

Bison44 Posted March 21, 2020 Share Posted March 21, 2020 That is a damn good idea. Another networks are feeding us "classic" MLS, NCAA B-ball etc. Why not a few CPL games?? V-cup, Forge in champions league etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are so many Olympic moments that sell more than CPL, that I think they'll stick to that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cblake Posted March 25, 2020 Share Posted March 25, 2020 Wonder if One Soccer is looking at a deal for the Belarusian Premier League as its the only league in Europe that is still playing? It would give them some live programming as I am sure other channels are looking at it too. CDNFootballer 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ktf Posted April 4, 2020 Share Posted April 4, 2020 I wonder if One Soccer will give some short of subscription extension. Seeing as my membership expires at the end of April, it is not much but I was hoping to watch teh first few weeks of the season before needing to renew.

In Spain Roures and Mediapro have done nothing, it is a bit disgraceful I find. My gym stopped charging for services, others may find other services not rendered are pardoned, but Mediapro keeps not only charging for football, through Movistar, but announce the tv deals with all the football packs in place, as if they could reasonably give a new subscriber Champions, League, Cup, and so on. It is a bit disgraceful. And they have not replaced the massive gap with anything but reruns, there are no new programs of analysis, no talk shows on the current situation, they are not spending a dime. Roures is all freaked out about the season not ending, his only idea is that this year has to finish, next year hardly matters. I don't fully undderstand the logic in financial terms, but in social and human terms he is really out of it. Honestly: One Soccer is generating more content than Mediapro platforms in Spain. Okay, One Soccer, most of it for me, anyways, is rather obnoxiously giddy and superficial. It is really over the top, with a few exceptions (some of these interviews with retired vets are okay).

Kent Posted April 5, 2020 Share Posted April 5, 2020 I watched the Ian Hume and Craig Forrest interviews and really enjoyed them. I had completely forgotten that Forrest played for Chelsea for a bit. Looking forward to more interviews like these. johnyb 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unnamed Trialist Posted April 6, 2020 Share Posted April 6, 2020 If folks are looking for football related content, I highly recommend a documentary called The Other Final, which documents the lead up, game and aftermath of a match played between Montserrat and Bhutan. Memorable. ted, johnyb and nolando 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stouffvillain Posted April 8, 2020 Share Posted April 8, 2020 I've been trying to watch some CPL matches from last year but after about 10 minutes the replay continues only on the device and the tv is frozen.
