This is taking me back to my sensible world of soccer days

 

[Tricky_Trev]

Great goal by somebody. I’m watching that Facebook stream on a very dim iPhone so that nobody notices at work. Probably not worth it, but whatever.

 

[Gorton_Tubster]

Woooooa... Persistence shows, I think, can't quite tell who scored it was all quite blurry and needs some commentary

Surely a reasonable plan would have been to stream a few youth games and then prove the system a little before going gung ho advertising a game and then finding it unviewable.

There aren't any, so a meaningless friendly on a Wednesday afternoon is an ideal chance to find out what works and what doesn't.

 

[Fame Monster]

Great finish Raz

 

[Ric]

Frozen picture again.

 

[OccupiedPalestineBlues]

Wow, sound :-)

Streaming a game of football is hardly ground breaking tech and neither is launching an app these days.

Its been a fucking pile of shit from the start for many as seen by the threads on here and given the money that will no doubt have been thrown at it as a project its not good enough to be honest.

The club either sorts it and fast or it loses what it obviously sees as a way of reaching fans globally as well as monetising them.

Im not that arsed either way to be honest but as a punter who signed up with his bank card expecting a certain amount of service for it i am.

There's a lot that goes into it actually, but all that proves is that it should have been launched as a pilot and scaled up slowly. Bit of a shit show from whoever is running this project, they'd be told to fuck off if they worked where i do and replaced by someone else.

They get the picture back just in time for us to watch the drinks break!

I do love a good drinks break

 

[Utter bobbins]

Muted celebration by Leroy must be leaving

 

[Fame Monster]

Rodri having a great game

 

[Franknorgrovesnephew]

haha this could be 4 mate it's a reply

 

[Neville Kneville]

Fucking hilarious.

The commentator just commented on a replay of the last goal, thinking it was live!

 

[BlueDan91]

Its political about extraditions out of HK. But theyll use any platform to get attention. Did you see the videos from the subways? They look organised and attacking randomers.

Haven't seen any videos. Found a stream showing the game but they were only showing it to show protests and then removed it.

 

[ESP Blue]

Volume gone up..... pics just gone again

Which is my point exactly mate.

City have no excuses for the way its been rolled out, especially as its a pay service.

 

[Gorton_Tubster]

Fuck , this guy with the periscope feed is talking about leaving at half time! He can't go.

I don't think he realises there are over a thousand people watching his feed

[Neville Kneville]

"We are heading towards, if not already, half time "

 

[I'm Blue]

"Apologies for the loss of picture"
That's not good enough, we want blood.
I feel disrespected : )
