Just a reminder, 5pm today!

Not a bad game to watch with post match beers.

Cant wait, I'm away to Barca next week to watch them play Espanyol, this should set me up nicely!

It doesn't start on Sky Sports until 5:15 due to UK licensing laws! so will miss the first 15 minutes.

Bet365 will do then for 1st 15min

Is that footbal rules that a game can't be shown live so close to other games finishing?

Can't be licensing?

Sky can't show any live games on a Saturday afternoon between something like 2-5.15pm in order not to discourage folk from attending matches. That's why an el Classico a couple of seasons ago with a 3pm ko wasn't covered at all.

Our semi against Falkirk last season overstepped the restrictions because of the extra time. Guaranteed this years semi kicks off at noon.

Great book is just out called Fear and Loathing in La Liga. Investigates the history and politics surrounding Real Barca. Enjoying it so far.

It's a bit silly really. What's 15 minutes?

People who are attending 2pm, 3pm or 4pm KO's are hardly going to be attending a 5pm kick off as well. So just show the game from the beginning. :confused:

I got some bad news. The Barcelona game has kicked off and its not on tv? its advertised to be on but instead of it its cricket showing? Anyone know if its on another channel?

Sky Sports 2 at 5:15. TV us not allowed to show live football on a Saturday between 3:00 and 5:15.

The point is not people attending both games, it's people not attending a real game at all because they'd rather watch a superSky ultrahypefest on TV instead. You can argue whether the embargo should finish at 4:50 or 5 or 5:15, but the rule is basically a good thing.

My wee bro has been jammy enough to get tickets for the game.

Just text saying the atmosphere is unreal, can hardly hear anything!

Tremendous finish, just wish he would show that sort of ability more often, its obviously in there.

Jese Rodriguez gets what will presumably be a consolation. Great run and pass from Ronaldo.

First time in a while I've actually enjoyed a Classico - thought that was a decent game and not totally dominated by antics/cheating/generally thuggery.
