Yeah, it was Ryan Giggs with that free kick. But I don't really care about Man Utd, or anyone in the Premiership. It's just a great league to watch. Blue, as for Serie A(the Italian League), while the quality of football is undoubtedly of the highest standard, I also find it to be a little slow. Obviously, I watch the Scottish Leagues first, but after that, I like Spain and England in particular.

They used to have some Scottish games on FSW over here...now the only way you can watch any game from Scotland is on PPV or something...ridiculous. :hmm:

Dan, you ain't missing much. It's a case of, Celtic or Rangers? Every year. Nobody else has won the league since the late 80's.

We get the occasional MLS game over here. This country is soccer daft, we'll watch anything!:D
