Guest minneapolisgreek Posted November 26, 2004 Share Posted November 26, 2004 We should all right to ESPN and ask them to show the Liverpool - Olympiakos game instead of Roma - Real Madrid game. Those who want should go to this link and post a message http://sports.espn.go.com/sitetools/s/cont...act/espntv.html If we send them enough posts they might switch the games. I've read that Liverpool fans in the U.S. are email them and also on the greek soccer forums of they are making the same pleads. It wont hurt to try. Who the ###### wants to watch Roma ( 1 or 2 points) play in front of an empty stadium (fans are banned) and for the second time on espn2 in 21/2 months Real M.?

Grigoris Posted November 27, 2004 Share Posted November 27, 2004 This is a horrible decision. Not only does ESPN refuse to show Greek teams (last game I recall was Man U - OLY a few years back, and then PAO - Ajax in 1996), it continues to show only the "name" teams of Europe, irrespective of whether there are more attractive draws on the night. For example, not only is OLY-Liv a high drama match, there is also: Leverkusen - Dynamo Kiev, Werder Bremen - Valencia and PSG - CSKA Moskow. These are all head-to-head matches which will dtermine who advances and who stays home. Whether an OLY fan or not, people need to email ESPN and let them know that their insistance on showing teams like Real Madrid, Man U, AC Milan, Juve, and not the "objectively" best game of the week is not OK with us as the viewers. I have, adn I hope others do as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Panos13 Posted November 29, 2004 Share Posted November 29, 2004 So you will watch your small club get a royal spaniking from a mediocre Liverpool :LOL: :LOL: :LOL: and go out of Europe :LOL: :LOL: :LOL: Are you sure you even want it televised? I suggest you go out and have some fun instead. Complete failure, like EVERY SEASON SO FAR, will be too painful to watch. Haven't you had enough of it :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LUZ13 Posted November 29, 2004 Share Posted November 29, 2004 ESPN Deportes always has a better program (at least to my taste) I always envy my latin american friends. Liverpool vs. Oly is interesting to latinos because ofthe Spanish flavor that Liverpool has this year and the Brazilian flavor of Oly, furthermore, almost everybody in Latin America is sick and tired of Real Madrid (Barcelona is much more popular) As for me, unfortunately I do not see either of them.. My cable has some CL-less ESPN. I see the highlights in the UEFA site and listen to the radio live They did not show even one game of Oly, but they showed Pana , Arsenal and Real Madrid, And Juve (the team I hate most) Thank the Lord we have the Turkish interstar and a Jordanian Channel that sometime bring ou some CL games Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wallofsoccer88 Posted December 1, 2004 Share Posted December 1, 2004 I've already posted about this over in Soccer on TV, but the stupid thing ESPN is doing is wasting both live timeslots on ESPN 2 and ESPN Deportes on Roma-Real Madrid :blink: :angry: . You think at least one ESPN network (it should be ESPN Deportes and ESPN 2) would have teams that both could advance in the CL in the live timeslots and show other games on tape-delay, but the folks at ESPN are blowing this one big time :tdown: :angry: :box:. At least give us a game (on ESPN 2) in which both teams could advance (obviously OSFP-Liverpool). Even Leverkusen-Kiev I could live with. I'm sick of seeing only Madrid, Man U, Juve, on ESPN 2 when there are better, more meaningful games on . :*&%:. I don't think I Greek team in the CL has been on ESPN 2 since 2001 (AEK-Real Madrid); a game AEK tied 2-2 in Madrid. Go figure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NYC_Olympiakos Posted December 1, 2004 Share Posted December 1, 2004 Well i guess its either time for Greek teams to go further into C.L. (like Olympiakos) or when the drawing happens next year is to get one of the four big teams in our group lol as long as Olympiakos keep winning i don't mind paying $20 at the cafe's to watch Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
