Same here, I hope between us we can figure out some kind of way to do it. I'm half thinking maybe I could get my family to set up a webcam or something, so I can hear the commentary that way.

Or maybe Skype or something?

I cant stand listening to these guys, what do they know about footy :unsure: its driving me crazy

I think I'm ready to buy 2 tickets to the UK and go and watch it there. Dave and Marcello (commentators) suck.

They don't even know the right names of the players. Trying to add in the little funny comments is just sad.

I signed a petition on Fox Soccer website to get rid of these idiots. Thousands signed, but I guess ESPN ignored it. :angry:

Blech. See, yesterday for the Poland - Equcador match they had a British guy and an Irish guy and they were great! I loved those guys! I was hoping they'd be commentating this match. *sigh*

Unfortunately I don't have my GC yet, so there's no possibilty of me doing that.

I can't get that SKY audio to work :angry:

i can't either. a little box comes up and it has a play button but then it just says connecting to media and then just returns to the original state :(

i was excited thinking it would work... i already have the laptop connected to my home theater system to send video and sound to the system. i was just going to let the sky sound play with the abc video.

i so wish i was back in the uk with tom watching this on our tv there. the timing of this separation really sucks.

LOL. My husband lives for football. He'd miss sleep for an England game. He's ready to mute it and read the play by play on BBC. There's a diver.. there's a diver! Valdez is a diver

It goes between ESPN/ESPN2/ABC. On the UK forum there is the schedule somewhere. I'm thinking that ABC are the plonkers who hired these commentators.

Baddiel and Skinner's world cup podcast is on the Times online. free download
