    Is this one that you imagined? Or have the rest of us just not been told about it yet?

    It might be the same one that we talk about from time to time and agree would be a great idea before we all admit it hasn't got a snowballs chance in hell of happening....;O)

    im pretty sure bunce said about it on his hour like 2 months before setanta went bust. and then there was a petition about trying to get it started. was just wondering if that has completly failed or its actually going somewhere

    I started the petition when I was a different dude on here - before I got booted off - and I put a lot into it but I met strong resistance plus I've got shitty hours and a family y'know. I think I got like a 1000 signatures, nowhere near enough to create a storm.

    We're back to relying on the empire (Sky) I'm afraid, the Alliance (Setanta) got crushed.

    Boxing aint hollywood.
