It means there'd be a roaring lion's face filling the screen before every match. More Hollywood passes? It's a worry though, it's already commercialised so much it's an embarrassment. I'm pretty sure that company doesn't exist anymore, I remember watching a documentary about that lion and poked it until they got the roar they wanted....I am drunk so prolly misread the whole thing, also winding myself up arguing with a bunch of idiotic ICP fans that can't get their facts straight. Nope you didn't misread it, that's the lion I meant Sorry to hear they were poking it like that the twats. Ope yr hangover's not too bad mate, and hope the ICP fans didn't wind you up TOO much. ICP. Idiot's Crystal Palace?

It won't be a good thing, all takeovers result in cuts in expenditure, they will try and reduce PL payments. Name me one take over, by US firms that has been good for British based companies, Cadbury, Ford , etc. All resulted in far fewer jobs in U.K.

It means that I will still not subscribe to Sky. For those who do, it means more right wing propaganda promoting intolerance and division. Murdoch as good as owned Sky anyway (as much as an individual can own a corporation/Ltd company) Fox already owned 39% of Sky and his son James is CEO of Fox and Chairman of Sky. So it's hardly been outside his sphere of influence has it? I suspect it will make little difference to the day to day running of Sky. What it will do is give Sky a nice little £18 billion warchest in it's battle with the likes of BT. For the haves (ie us in the Premier League) it might mean another bumper payday in the near future. For the have nots (ie everyone else) it will just make things worse unless the Premier League and the FA start to cascade some of the wealth down through the leagues.

Idiot's Crystal Palace? Nope....ICP stands for Insane Clown Possy, but was arguing with Juggalos(people who like to dress as clowns and listen to crap music) more specifically I was arguing with a band and its fans, I was very very drunk and called the band a bunch of 30+ saddos trying relive their youth, making videos of them smoking weed where its legal and pretending its not.

So you got insane clown posse, 'juggalos', dope's legal, and the scene you describe sounds surreal ...... California? Ps I wouldna worry about the band. Sound like a right bunch of clowns lol Pps I'm 30+26=56, not that old I suppose, but nowadays I'd struggle to actually remember enough of my youth to relive it!

If I remember rightly through my drunken haze, the band were from Kentucky but filming somewhere else on a boat if I remember rightly.......As the argument went I actually convinced some of the older ones whom were around my age(35) that I was right.....Alot of the younger ones kept saying FIFY I think, but still don't know what it means cause I've not looked it up.

Kentucky? I got the right continent then! As they were dressed as clowns I'll give you the benefit, you were probably right lol Aven't the foggiest what FIFY means. Don't know what it is with clowns just lately, there was a spate of folks being terrorised by scary clowns, bizarre...
