Sky Guide Online has other stuff on. Doubt that they'll be showing it on Sky. Should be Radio Coverage on ZB or Radio Sport.

Hang around the back door of the BB, asking for anyone looking for a child (to take to the football) for the evening.

When Hibs, went up, to win the Scottish Cup - I wisnae there - furfuxake!

Just the opposite for me - I will be in Wellington on business from Auckland! Is it pay on the gate?

Find an adult and bash them until they get the free ticket for you...

I suppose it the great tradition that many of us UK expats would have encountered as kids going to the football, of being 'lifted over the turnstiles', perhaps there can be some way of matching childless paying adults, with ne'er-do-well urchins that require assistance to obtaining entrance, for free to the match.

According to the Total Football Show, Tony P is working with Sky to get the game on TV. In terms of radio, definetly on Radio Sport.

No extra time...

From the FFA rules for the PSC:
If, at the conclusion of the 2008 Pre-Season Cup, the scores between the two (2) teams are tied, penalty kicks will be taken in accordance with the FIFA Laws of the Game to determine the winner of the match. For the avoidance of doubt, there will be no extra time period.

Massive day out Wednesday. The Fever need to set new standards and lift everything from last year up a few notches. Prepare for absolute chaos in the Fever on Wednesday while the rest of the league watches on as we win our first peice of silverware.
 
Anyone who knows 'that scouser' get him along.
