Haven't heard the full starting lineup yet. Glass definitely starting and Speed is captain. Does this mean Hughes ahead of Barton?? Or is it just Speed getting the honor as this game gives him the record as player with most starts in the premiership.

This must be the lowest turn out for a webcast.

Where is Syme, PiC, hiro? We know where the tag team is and can only guess about Sting, min, TM and the others in Sydney.

Although we seem to be on top there does not seem to be the passion. Maybe it is the away commentators we have to listen to!

Hello from Belgium. After Sunderland- Southampton, and then lots of phones beeping, I've got the NUFC web broadcast again - we need to all send in a strong complaint to NUFC, especially considering the last apology when they said that they had taken steps to make sure it would never happen again, and then it does just a few weeks later. Anyway it sounds like we didn't miss anything in the first 20 minutes.

So we've got the irresistible force of our longest run of no blank sheets up against the immovable object of Leicester's longest losing streak. Who is going to give way this afternoon? With the pressure we're exerting, I think the irresistible force is going to come out 2- 0 with goals from Cort and Acuna. 8 in a row for Peter Taylor at the beginning instead of the end of the season would have had him working full time for England.

This may be a stupid question but FF wants to know how everyone gets Real Player on the official site AND be able to have the thread on at the same time.

The only way we can do it is sit next to each other - FF has the commentary on his and I'm on the BBS. Or do you just flash backwards and forwards....beats my tiny brain capacity.

Probably simple....but if anyone can be bothered - can you tell us how in the break, purlease. Ta.

Afternoon all, just managed to get on the board, bloody internet!

Sounds like we're all over them but not making it pay, sounds familiar!

And what's this about Bobby being in the land of the windmills on 'business'? Who do we think he's looking at/signing? Seedorf anyone?

-- Anonymous, April 28, 2001

Val, the web cast that runs in Real Player will continue to play in the background even if you have a web browser open. This allowing you to listen and post at the same time.

You do get 'net congestion' every now and then tho'

-- Anonymous, April 28, 2001

If you use Explorer, go to the official site and start the broadcast. Click on the minus sign to reduce the window.

Then change the page you are looking at to the bbs. The real player page does not have to be on screen to work

-- Anonymous, April 28, 2001

Val Open Int. explorer twice. Run real player on one minimised and run the BBS on the other.

Hope this helps

-- Anonymous, April 28, 2001

Val and FF - all you need to do is open a new window. If you've got Internet Explorer, go to the top left corner, click File, then on the menu click New , then Click Window. Then you can open up this site, while you still stay on Real Player. In fact you can even just switch out of the nufc.com and go directly to the BBS, as long as you keep the Real Player on in its own window (which starts up itself in a new window). I hope you get the idea.

Now metro is saying they've heard he's in Bedlington????? Where is Bobby and why isn't he at our match?

Val, is your internet connection jamming if you try to run a browser window(for the bbs) at the same time as Real Audio? Older computers can have problems. Also if you've got a slow dial up connection you might not be able to run both. If not either of those problems, just leave Real Audio in the background and open a browser window on top of it.

BTW, when I did have a really slow internet connection(constantly when I lived in Boston!) I found I could only be on the bbs if everything else was closed down. Also, I couldn't surf around the bbs. Just open the matchday thread and keep refreshing it. I still keep websurfing to an absolute minimum because my PC still freaks out if I get too much running at the same time.
