Apologies if someone has posted this before, but freesport are launching a free to air sports channel showing amongst other things live games from Portugal, Belgium and Argentina (and others), motor sport and NHL hockey too. On all platforms apart from virgin.

Not quite everyone will be able to receive it. Only 30 transmitters are carrying signals for this... But it does cover approx 70% of the UK. My transmitter doesn't carry it. If you don't get BBC 4 in HD, you are unlikely to get it. It's on channel 95 on Freeview and BT.

It looks to have plenty of rugby league on it so no one can grumble for free.

I discovered it by accident on Saturday morning, and wasted a couple of hours watching live NRL. I might set my alarm for next weekend and catch the early game. 👍

Why would anyone want to watch oval ball?

Good stuff. NRL is best rugby league you can watch. There is also Toronto on this channel usually a Saturday night. Half 9 v Barrow should be worth a watch.

You see Ben, if you ever get a pass out down to Halifax, I take you to a game. You would love it 😂

You work on the pass, I will work on the day with the cougars.

That's what it says on the BT TV app, if that's any help.

It is. If you are one of us unfortunates, it will come up 'No Channel'

Put your postcode in here and it will list all your available channels http://www.digitaluk.co.uk/channels/channel_listings
