    Gud on them. Cheers on.
    I've been watching as much as I can this year, since I found a channel on DirecTV that shows SPL and I've notied they pronounce it "selltic" when calling the matches. I was surprised, because I've always heard that we were wrong for saying it that way. Us wacky Americans.

    YOu just need a dish/ cable package that includes Fox Soccer Channel. I used to have it and it is very addictive if one has an interest in European Football.

    I have Setanta Sports on DirecTV. They show SPL, EPL, Euro leagues, all kinds of rugby, Aussie rules football, Gaelic sports and other stuff. It costs about the same as a movie channel would and to me it's worth every penny.

    They even showed the 7's live from San Diego. That was cool.

    Of you can check out your local Scots club, if you have one.
