Sky Sports 5 Tonight

[shinpads]

Activated it via the sky website, without adding the broadband . The broadband thing is a con , they are trying to get you to sign up for two years even tho they only have chimps league for 1.

I dont recall ever activating it, but I'm watching the build up now and I watched the Arsenal game last night. As for recording the game, I had to go through the TV guide to do it, might be because of the match choice they have going on.

Manage to get their digs in already focusing on the negatives of tevez and lack of a fourth goal last year and then straight onto other teams, hope we get some decent prematch coverage.

Red button for me. No broadband.

Its live on rte in ireland, so the rte player online will be streaming it, will be more reliable stream than some of the other websites, I presume you can view it outside Ireland.

The game is on Sky Sports 5 tonight. I think the game might get encrypted for all those who have not activated the channel, so I thought I'd start this thread to avoid people potentially missing the start of the game.

Has anyone activated Sky Sports 5 on Sky without taking the 2 years free broadband offer? I want to know if this is possible / how to do it if anyone can help? I've tried googling it and can't find the answer.

I have managed to watch Sky Sports 5 up to now without activating it. However, today when I try and set a reminder for the match, or record it, it won't allow me to do it.

If anyone can explain the process of how to activate the channel without taking the broadband offer, I'd really appreciate it, and I'm sure some other blues would too. Thanks a lot.

I just asked my dad as he has sky. Said he has the channel, didn't need to activate anything. He doesn't have sky bb.

Slightly puzzled by this, as I also activated it a couple of months back via the red button and never had any kind of request or offer for free broadband. And again, I'm on BT Broadband.

I never activated it but had access the other evening

Removed movies a couple of months ago and while on phone they activated it

I rang Sky saying I didn't want to extend my broadband contract and they said if you waited until mid August it would activate automatically to existing Sky subscribers and your broadband contract would be unaffected; and sure enough it was just on one day.
