I got offered a job at the international school there but turned it down after we decided to move to Bergen. We could've moved to Malmø a couple of years ago, but my wife said the same as you and that she'd never move our family there. I could definitely live in Gøteborg though. I'm not a city person, but I really felt comfortable there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
svetigpung Posted 15 August, 2012 Author Share Posted 15 August, 2012 I´ve lived in Göteborg the last twenty years. Its a very chilled place and relatively safe and easy to live in. Liseberg park for the kids , the islands for a summer day out , relaxed atmosphere around town , good selection of bars and pubs , plenty of eateries. Stockholm´s pretty cool and a beautifull city as well. Unfortunately its full of stockholmers. Enjoy your trip Stev. Your certainly lucky with the weather. We´ve only had five days of summer this year and you´ve had three of them. If your down south , try Österlen on the east coast. Well worth a visit.

Malmö on the whole has gone dramatically down hill even in the 12 years i've lived over here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stev2001 Posted 17 August, 2012 Share Posted 17 August, 2012 I'm currently in Helsingborg and we went on a day trip to helsingør today. Stockholm was a very beautiful city and the weather was perfect. We spent our last day there in Skansen and Julibacken which my two year old loved. We have been incredibly lucky with the weather, hopefully it'll last another week. Off to Trelleborg on Monday to see more of my wife's family. I've been there loads of times so will just relax and hopefully get some sun. Anyone know if they are showing the Saints game on TV over here?

Saint Martini Posted 18 August, 2012 Share Posted 18 August, 2012 Everyone got their ViaPlay subscriptions up and running? I wouldn't be surprised if Southampton will often be one of the matches not shown on the regular Viasat channels but only via ViaPlay. For me it was a no-brainer, I have boxer and can't get Viasat via them.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Majestic Channon Posted 20 August, 2012 Share Posted 20 August, 2012 Good write up in aftonbladet today Southampton var tillbaka i Premier League efter sju år. Efter en helvetesresa med sju sorger, konkurshot, en massa bedrövelser ställdes de mot regerande mästarna på bortaplan. Skulle de lägga sig ner och självdö efter Carlos Tévez psykologiska 1-0 före paus? Inte alls. Andra halvlek var en styrkedemonstration från nykomlingen. De kröp ned med laget och litade på att backlinjen (som många, bland annat jag, ifrågasatt inför premiären) skulle städa undan de många inläggen. Sedan kontrade de helhjärtat med mycket folk. Vid 2-1-målet kom gästerna i ett 5 mot 3-läge efter en omställning efter hörna. Managern Nigel Adkins fick maxeffekt av sina två första byten. Rickie Lambert, målkungen, tryckte in 1-1 när han varit på plan i några minuter. Steven Davis, nyförvärvet från Rangers, satte 2-1 på samma sätt. I det läget var ”Saints” på väg att ordna en dunderskräll. Det räckte in hela vägen hem, Danny Fox gjorde ett fatalt misstag när han nickade bollen in i slottet där Samir Nasri satte segermålet (3-2).Nigel Adkins var nöjd trots förlusten och visst hade han flera positiva bitar att ta med sig: > Rickie Lambert – som gjort en liknande resa som Grant Holt – visade att han kan göra mål även i högstaligan. Hans inhopp tände hela laget. > Nathaniel Clyne, nye högerbacken från Crystal Palace, övertygade med kvicka, frejdiga löpningar längs kanten. > Mittbacksparet Jos Hooiveld/José Fonte klarade sig förvånansvärt bra, framför allt i andra halvlek när City tryckte på som mest. Jag sätter dock frågetecken för målvakten Kelvin Davis som visserligen svarade för många räddningar, men även släppte flera farliga returer. Det är sånt som kan bli kostsamt framöver. Mina spelarbetyg, Manchester City-Southampton: City: Hart 6 – Zabaleta 6, Kompany 6, Lescott 6, Clichy 7 – Rodwell 6, Touré 7 – Silva 5, Agüero -, Nasri 8 – Tévez 8. Avbytare: Dzeko 6, Balotelli 6, Kolarov -. Southampton: Davis 7 – Clyne 7, Fonte 7, Hooiveld 6, Fox 5 – Ward-Prowse 5, Scheneiderlin 7, Lallana 7 – Rodriguez 5, Do Prado 6, Puncheon 7. Avbytare: Lambert 7, Davis 7, Sharp -. Klassisk match Om någon nu glömt varför vi älskar Premier League så fick vi 45 minuter som fungerade som en fin liten påminnelse. Andra halvlek på Etihad var magisk! Det var fart, ”end to end-stuff”, Saints-fans som dansade Poznan – allt. Om gårdagen var innehöll flera storsegrar var det här den sortens dramatik som vi bjöds på så många gånger förra året. Premier League när den är som bäst. Hur klarade vi oss tre månader utan den här adrenalinkicken? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Majestic Channon Posted 23 August, 2012 Share Posted 23 August, 2012 I expect saints v wigan will be the least popular prem match over here on saturday, wouldn't be confident of anywhere showing it myself. I've had frustrating experiences trying to watch saints games over here in the past, the most frustrating was the play off semi final 1 st leg v derby ,they told me i had to leave 5 minutes into extra time because it was just me in the pub and they wanted to knock off early! Mind you that was in hässleholm, or should i say hässlehål. Good luck anyway Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saint Martini Posted 2 September, 2012 Share Posted 2 September, 2012 When Saints were in the PL last time around I used to download MOTD highlights from uknova.com but they have been forced to take their torrents offline.

Saint Martini Posted 2 September, 2012 Share Posted 2 September, 2012 FYI Majestic, be careful when it comes to using different computers. You can have up to 4 devices use one viaplay account but the tricky thing is that they register every computer that uses it once and when you reach 4 you can't use any other devices. Vad är en enhet? Viaplay ger dig möjligheten att streama tv, sport och film från ett stort antal olika enheter, exempelvis din PC, iPhone, Smart-TVs (läs mer här). När du väljer att spela streamat innehåll från Viaplay på en av dina enheter registreras den, och varje konto på Viaplay får som mest ha 4 aktiva enheter registrerade. Du får ett popup-meddelande när du närmar dig det maximala antalet enheter som går att registrera på ditt konto. Du kan inte byta ut mer än en registrerad enhet under en 90-dagars period. Om du behöver hjälp kan du kontakta vår kundtjänst. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

svetigpung Posted 3 February, 2013 Author Share Posted 3 February, 2013 Its not only the close ups that anoy me but the replays, sometimes a third or fourth time and you can hear the game going on in the background. Cut back and theres an attack just outside the penalty area and you think hows that happened? WTF. at least you can choose english commentry on Viaplay. With Viasat you have the awful swedes that dont have a clue. Love when they have a close up of an ex-player, manager, or celeb and the swedish com have no idea who it is whatsoever. Once it was McMenemy...no idea! And then theres the constant betting adverts that cover the bottom half of the screen....where the ball is FFS.
