I just had a look at Setanta's schedule and the are showing the first leg of the play-off semi live next Friday. So be prepared to have a nasty cough all day next Thursday so your boss doesn't get suspicious when you call in sick on Friday! I imagine the second leg will also be shown live, but the schedule on Setanta's website only goes until the 14th.

Great stuff, enjoy my friend! I remember watching the FA Cup Game against Canvey on Fox Sports in Calgary. Seven hour time difference so it was lunch time for me, but I was suitably inebriated and confused a lot of Canucks by going berserk when Jay Smith scored.
 
The last game I saw on Setanta was the Man Utd match last season. The place was fairly empty at the time, only a few scattered patrons having a late lunch and one Man U fan. He ended up sitting with my friends and I, and I couldn't have been happier that he did. I think I almost gave our poor waitress a heart attack as she came over to get us some more drinks just as Freddy launched his famous free kick.

Thanks for that, I will be in Orlando next Friday so will search for a suitable bar.

Definitely try The Cricketers Arms. it's in the Mercardo shopping and dining complex on International Drive. Great traditional English pub. And the Mercardo is great for dinner choices.

You lucky sod. I went on family holidays to Orlando 5 times between 95 and 05, but my parents can't afford to go anymore. I pine for the place :'(
 
How good are Setanta sports at showing our games? I ask because I'm going to be in London in Western Ontario in Canada for most of next season, so I'm wondering how I'll be able to get my Southend fix! How do you go about it? Blues World coverage or anything like that? I imagine if we are in the Championship next season that the coverage may be a little better anyway but nevertheless (in a really sad way to everyone else who won't understand!) I'm anticipating withdrawl symptoms :(

When I was in Whistler, we had a pretty sweet Sky set up but you couldn't get any Southend highlights for love nor money.

Very grateful for KennyGUK that season :)

Thanks for all these tips. I'm off tonight and will be staying on International Drive (I know it's long) so will look them up.
 
Message to all the above posters all your imformation and detail is brilliant a big well done to everyone great work fellas
 
Good luck with that!

Was out there last year when we beat QPR 5-0 but couldnt find a place where it was on for ****.

Can recommend a place called Beef O'Brady's. I watched Southend vs Luton in the FA Cup there a few years ago.

It's in Lee Vista in Orlando, address is here: 6651 South Semoran Blvd., Ste. 106, Orlando, Florida, 32822.

Typically, if a Southend game is on TV Setanta will show it, unless it is the FA Cup, which at least in the US the rights to those games are owned by Fox Soccer Channel, which is much more mainstream channel. As for highlights, without Blues World the only highlights you'll get is when we play midweek or Friday night games and Sky Sports News (which is on Fox Soccer a couple hours a day) show some highlights.
 
Hooray another shrimper in Ontario.That brings us up to about 8. We are all gonna get together if we make the play off finals for a party.you can order setanta it is about $15.00 a month,which is well worth it for all the footie coverage.Not sure who will be your cable provider down there.Blues world has got a lot better to listen to games live and that is worth the money as well.The chat room on game days is a must.Like Seth said you get odd highlights when we have a midweek game.You can get foxsports canada which shows fa cup games , and sky sports news, in a package with leafs tv and raptors tv if you like hockey and basketball.or you can buy it individually for $3.00.If we make the championship then There will be more sufc on Setanta.If you have any questions about London and the surrounding areas drop me a line as we have one of our reps living down there.

Which package does Setanta come with? At the moment i only get FSC as part of my Time Warner bundle, and although its no great hardship, i have to go to the pub to get any of the setanta games. Im thinking more for the lazy hangover mornings when i cant be bothered to get out of bed.

Could you post a link to the page that lets you put in your location for bars with setanta? My girlfriend lives near Chicago / South Bend (IN) and she'd love to be able to watch the game.

Unfortunately you can't get Setanta on cable, you need to have either DirecTV or Dish Network to get in your house.
