Pubs that showed the game?

[Frazerbob]

OK, we all know it's not permited to post links to foriegn streams or name pubs showing the match before the game. However, surely it cant be a problem to let everyone know where you watched the game today, after the event.

So anyone able to tell us which pubs showed today's game? Might be worth remembering for next time we play in the Weedge.

I'll start......The Cameo down the Shore had it on.

I dont think so, down here all the pubs have it. Some have even taken full page adverts advertising the live saturday games in the local papers. I think sky have a problem.

i don't think sky have the problem. the main financial downside will be felt in the lower leagues where fans can now watch their beloved glesga sides at home as well as the espn away games. this will take some fans away from the lower leagues at 3pm on a sat

These pubs that have this (dodgy) system in, obviously want people to come in and watch what they are showing. Word of mouth, internet sites like this, whatever it is, the police will find out, these pubs are hardly keeping it a secret. I have no idea if this court case http://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk...ns-473815.html will allow this to become legal, but if the pubs are willing to show it, then they must be willing to take the chance of the authorities finding out about it, and someone talking about it on here, will make no difference imho at all.

Well thats different, and if they get caught its just hard luck, but as i have since said, they are hardly keeping it a secret, and again imho word of mouth or internet, the authorities will find out.

I tried to watch it on the net but found it very frustrating as the streaming was diabolical. The picture kept freezing every 10 seconds, the action at times was about 10 minutes delayed from real time and I totally missed large chunks of the game. Still it was being beamed from Iraq so I shouldn't complain!

[Makaveli]

The first half of the Iraqi game was pretty choppy. Did we not have a war over there to sort things like this out?

Petrie!

The radio turned out to be the better option.

First half was shi'ite. Was introducing my grandad to webgames, he wasn't impressed that the BBC radio was 10-15 seconds before the picture.

Still, second half was good.

How do the pubs get consistent feeds without it ****ing up?

You were watching the wrong one. I noticed the one you were on about and managed to get one with a 10 second delay.

Nobody is going to lose their licence. Yes, there is the possibility of a fine but that is the risk individuals and companies take to increase their turnover.

I recently ran a pub for Belhaven that had several foriegn systems (as many of their pubs do). We showed SPL and Premiership games every Saturday and we advertised the fact both internally and externally. We still paid Sky thousands of pounds for the full pub package which seemed to keep them at bay. They will only come after pubs that use Polsat, Diema, Al Jazeera etc INSTEAD OF Sky.

[bathhibby]

watched it at my Sons and although not a great feed compared to telly it was totally watchable.
All we need to do is figure out how to stream it from his Lap Top to the Telly.

[Part/Time Supporter]

Surely the real point is why the **** that game wasn't on SKY or ESPN in the first place, when the alternative chosen was the glamour game of Hamilton Accies v Celtic?

The SPL and the broadcasters really need to look at their selection policies.

edit: obviously the same sort of thing applies to Celtic v Hearts, Rangers v Aberdeen, etc. They could show Hamilton Accies later in the season if/when they are involved in a relegation battle, or against Motherwell I suppose.

Because SKY, sorry, ESPN pander to the whims of the OF. They are not going to show a game from Ibrox or Parkhead unless they are playing each other. The whole package is just set up to cater for OF fans who don't travel to away matches. If they were to show OF home games that would hit their attendances and that just would not do at all!
