  1. Thanks. I do follow Matt and will give Mike a look.
  2. I'll be following the match today from work. Mostly on Twitter. Any other good outlets that I can follow?
  3. Thanks to those who have offered caps. Very much appreciated.
  4. Phins (NFL) USF Bulls, Navy (yes, Navy), Michigan fan. I do like me some LSU gridiron too! Hate the Gators.
  5. Phins fan and my friends hate it. But I hardly watch the NFL anymore. I prefer the college game.
  6. Thanks and yes, I am in Florida and by all means let me know if any of the brit based Latics fans are headed my way. Two years ago Botlon came to play the Tampa Bay Rowdies in a friendly and I think everyone had a great time. Of course it was hot as hell even for me. It'd be nice to get the team here of a friendly! I've had to postpone two trips to the UK in the past 18 months. But I will surely let it be known when I do get there! I didn't take it as a dig. I think it's a great point if I understand correctly. I do think it's a privledge seeing your team play and sitting, chatting and drinking with like minded fans. Especially to those here in a foreign country since the teams we support and like rarely - if ever get to play here. Not to mention the cost of travel for a fan here to get there. So I know I'm envious. So you do get my fanfare.
  7. Thanks everyone. - I have been checking on the club site for caps and here's what they say- Hats & Scarves » HatsNo matching products could be found. Please try to search again. Hopefully they'll have some soon. - I am considering Latics Player. But will definitelly try Sky website. - underdog wrote We tend to have games with more "what the hell was that? But when the moments arrive they are sweet, it makes all the bad stuff go away. That sounds like a great signature! - I wish I had a few million to help out the team. I would be lying if I said that I didn't already think that. I'd LOVE to invest in a team. - I assure you I'm no nun. But if I was, I'd pray for that few million. I'm genuine. I really want to learn.
  8. Please forgive me if there is an 'Introduce yourself thread' and I missed it. I was going to wait to interact here until the season started but after reading the Meeting the Manager Results thread I thought that this would be a good time. That thread blew me away with the report on how LJ interacted with supporters and also how much you guys like the man. Which I'm sure has a little or a lot to do with – well – meeting with supporters. I'm fans of a few teams and hang out on those forums as well and no other supporters are as supportive of their manager as they are here. I'm sure that can change at some point but for now I think it's great. I grew up around (American) sports all of my life and even worked for the Tampa Bay Rays Baseball Club for 6 years. NEVER have I seen a manager/coach meet with supporters. Let me expand on being a “fan of a few teams”. I'm new to the sport entirely. 2010 World Cup hooked me and I've learned everything that I possibly could in these past three years. I took my time finding a team in England to support and of course I was drawn to the EPL because of more television coverage. I chose Everton (and now Hull City). Last season I wanted to start to learn about the Championship and somehow gravitated toward Hull City. I got to watch only two Hull City matches on American tv. I mostly followed through their forum and Twitter. Pretty interesting experiment actually.Now that they've been promoted, I needed to find another team outside of the EPL to follow. Enter the F.A. Cup. They showed the Liverpool v Oldham tie here on tv. Delighted with the outcome I was obviously hooked on OAFC! Then I got to watch the Everton tie. I literally found myself torn and was somewhat disappointed when the referee blew a call and subsequently the game. I can't remember what the call was but I came away thinking that Everton got really a lucky call from the ref and things could have been different. Needless to say I found that another side to follow. I know I won't be able to see many -if any matches but I am looking forward to this season none the less. Having said all of that, I am sure that I'll have questions about the team throughout the season. I already have a couple- like is there a site for match highlights and where can I pick up an OAFC baseball cap (E-bay has none that I can find). Anyway, thanks for listening & I look forward to the education. I also promise not to post something as long as this again!
  9. Great, thanks! Ill give it a go when i get home from work.
  10. Yes I am. It does ask if I want to view on the full version though. I also mentioned on another post that I can access the site signing in with my facebook on my computer. I just rather not use my facebook account to do so.
  11. Hey guys. I hate for this to be my first post but I have the same problem too. I am posting is from my tablet which obviously works. But now I am sitting at my computer as well and I am still getting the same message. Any other suggestions?
