/start rant 
I was just checking the Sky TV website to find out what champions league games are being covered on sky this week, and came across them listing wed 7:30am Man U Vs Barcelona @ old Trafford, and straight after this VFB Stuttgart vs Barcelona. I though i would call them to let them know about there mistake as that could prove annoying for people who wouldn't know better expecting to see the Man U - Barca game -(Man U actually are playing Roma).
Anyway, i finally get through (after looking up there customer help number on www.whitepages.co.nz  . They dont list it anywhere on their website) and ask the woman to check and see what time the games are actually on as Ive noticed the mistake on their on-line guide. she says "OK, ill go check, can you hold the line" 10 minutes passes before i hear someone on the line again and she says ESPN haven't listed what games are actually on yet, but the Man U vs Barca game is definitely on, and thats from there programming department. While waiting i checked www.soccernet.com and www.uefa.com just to make sure I'm not being an idiot, and i inform her that i have checked these two sources, and is she sure that ManU vs Barca is on. Yep, programming are %100 sure this game is on. i tell about the 2 websites i checked and told her that I'm about to email Man u to let them in on the change to their schedule. she didn't seem to get the sarcasm, and thanked me for my feedback.

Ha, ha, classic. I saw tha same thing in the TV guide and thought that Barcelona management figured out a way to be in two different places at the same time...they're clever over there...

to be fair, Barca reserves would beat Man Utd, so they might be sending them
