WP-o-Matic not fetching longer feed URL's???

This is a great plugin, but one problem.

Cron job setup and test feed url working and publishing fine, but when I add a real (little more complicated) RSS feed, the plugin doesnt fetch the articles.

example;

https://news.google.com/news/search?%20pz=1&cf=all&ned=us&hl=en&as_q=intext:Ireland&as_epq=&as_oq=&as_eq=&as_scoring=r&btnG=Search&as_drrb=q&20as_qdr=a&as_minm=7&as_mind=21&as_maxm=8&as_maxd=20&as_nsrc=&as_nloc=Ireland&geo=&as_author=&as_occt=b%20ody

anyone having similar issues, or a solution?

thanks!
