Streaming

Prime was fine on my TV, didn’t stop once and the picture really clear. Agree on the crowd noise though

I had a go at watching us on Amazon last night. Stop start all the way through, a complete load of rubbish. Anybody else managed it?

No problems at all.

think loads of dodgy sticks have gone down, we have always paid for prime,.never had an issue with buffering or anything like that, was at the match so don't know what the coverage was like

I haven't opened the link because trying to read anything on the MEN website is virtually impossible because of ads and pop-ups.

I presume it is the usual scary headline that has appeared in various guises over about 15 years suggesting a crackdown on users but usually involves a couple of suppliers being caught out.

That's my channel of choice when I am not at the game, Optus isn't shouty and it isn't too preachy.

I do however turn it off when they cut to those 4 clowns in the studio.

Now sports at half time. Show all goals and action from 1st half and no studio

Put the game through Prime on the firestick and it was hit and miss to say the least. Swapped to the app through sky and it was perfect.

I watched it via the app on sky and was perfect picture for me. My son was at the game and it was only about twenty to thirty seconds behind real time which I thought was impressive too.

They do this every now and then at it doesn't work people will find a workaround. What these providers can't quite figure out is that if the football wasn't streamed to every country and organisation they could control it better, however their greed is their Achilles heel.

Who can afford to buy all the channels football is on? If you got the football legally you still couldn't watch a 3'oclock kick off.

I have a message for them all.

Not sure where I stand. I have all the legal channels Sky, BT and Amazon via subscriptions. I also pay an overseas company an annual subscription for the 3.00pm kick offs with English commentary and near on, perfect reception. As none of the above 3 are missing out on me financially, I hope they would go easy on me if there was a knock at the door. Not that there is likely to be one, my front door is 200 ft from the road and the drive is protected by 10ft fuck off electric gates and security fencing all around my property. Admission is strictly by invite only.

I don't think they're after the end customers, just shutting down sites that stream content illegally. I'm not 100% sure but I think the 3pm kick-offs shouldn't be available in the UK even though there are always loads of streams.

The only problem is to attend a match is a 1.5 hours drive each way minimum, car risks getting pinched or damaged, up and down ever 2 minutes for the pissheads, shit food and expensive seats and no chance of away tickets. Watching from the comfort of home on a wet and windy Saturday afternoon and a saving from non attendance at 1 game pays the annual subscription. It is a bit of a no brainer for me.
