    Who is your ISP? I'm having this problem at home - IBB, in someone else's house with eircom it's fine and using vodafone internet card it's fine. Mobile card is used on the same laptop as I'm using at home, so I've narrowed it down to my router which I haven't been fiddling with or Irish Broadband. I've emailed them and are awaiting a response. I've tried different browsers but problem remains.

    Irish Broadband are blaming my router! I think it must be a DNS problem.

    Odd that. On a (slightly) related note, the game seems to be processing match reports, league results and match profits much much faster in the last few weeks.

    I agree, I have not had to wait long after a match to read the reports and assess. Friendlies on monday nights seem to be done almost immediately and leagues matches a little longer but again, no where near the 3/4 hours+ it used to take!
