Totally agree DC must have friends high up at Samsung that can sort us out with some premo gear to use to offer best service to fans :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I for one think it's amazing value even if it's one camera with no replay. True, and yes at the end of the day there's a strong chance I will sign up, but it'd be good to know how much effort the club themselves are putting into it considering it's forcing overseas fans to pay £110 up front for a year. I emailed the club to ask, so if they reply then I'll update the thread. Edited July 8, 2017 by Grimbarian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To stream in 1080 and I'd be a bit dubious, but 720 should be well within their capabilities. It looks great on a monitor.

Signed up anyway, all seems to work so far after testing streaming a few videos currently on the site. Different ball game onthe day though...we'll see next Tuesday I suppose.

Guest Kagoshimaowl Posted July 10, 2017 Share Posted July 10, 2017 Just found out the friendly matches are not in and neither are the FA cup or league cup games. Bit of a con if you ask me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I gather you never go to live games then. As you only watch it from one position and the players flatly refuse to do replays. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

andytrig Posted July 10, 2017 Share Posted July 10, 2017 £110 for all league games that are not on sky is a superb deal. I live in Cornwall, which may as well be abroad when it comes to travelling anywhere and a round trip to Hillsborough costs nearly as much and involves 11 hours driving. I will certainly be giving it a go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
