Looking at the other matches, I reckon it's pretty safe to say that we're on!

We don't kick off until 5:15 - that's 4:15am EDST... Might clash with Spanish coverage????

Did they change the kick off time?

Maybe ESPN haven't updated their guide.

Yep - so they could show it live on bbc. Did it about 3 days after the draw was made.

I had a good link to the ESPN tv guide... I'll see if I can find it again!

They are listing 2 games - currently being Bristol Rovers v Southampton (early kickoff) and I'm guessing either Chelsea or Liverpool for the 3pm game. No mention of our game - yet. Although they might still change their minds. Anyone got any contacts at ESPN??!?!?!?!?

Good point about the BBC. Maybe ESPN don't have it because it's the BBC's game for the cup. Does that mean SBS might be able to get a feed?

Of course I'll be getting up!! I first got Foxtel in 97 - that was the year before they started showing Premier League. I think I've watched most Arsenal games live in that time. It's only the last year or so that I've stopped watching the 2:30am Sunday games - if I do, I'm absolutely knacked on the Monday... I'm soooooo glad the Chelsea game is on the Easter weekend!
Plus, I can't sit and watch a tape in normal speed! I have to fast forward to the action!!!
