Bring back the every half hour reports on radio 210 mid week aways were classic biased home reporters on a dodgy phone line.

If you still hate Futcher
Sutekh Bring back the 1960s, 70s and 80s when, outside of Division 1, all you could get was Final Score on a Saturday afternoon, Ceefax, Club Call and dubious quality local radio score updates.


Ah yes, the good old days of ceefax and the excitement of waiting for the page to refresh

For the Aussie Royals,

Sorry for the delayed notice, however, you can watch the playoff games on Bein Sports, live at 2:25 am Eastern. Costs $17 for the month, then you can cancel.

Ulango can be quite good.

On another note, is anyone surprised how poor Sky's coverage of the play-offs has been this year? Usually they have really pushed them but this year, they seem to be an afterthought.

League 1 and League 2 games played at the same time, with silly kick off times for the 1st legs whilst all 4 Championship semi finals have been scheduled against PL games. Sky are showing 2 PL games at the same time as us tonight.

During our game at the weekend they even cut to the Stoke-Arsenal game as the players were coming out of the tunnel to advertise it was just starting. I thought the pub I was in had changed the channel whilst I wasn't looking!

Coverage of the final is what they're interested in. Everything else is incidental. My local (in Sussex) is showing bloody Arsenal tonight so I have to make do with watching a stream on my tablet at home instead :( Unfortunately childcare meant I couldn't come up in person tonight

Tbh I think sky are missing a trick here. If they went all over the top with "who will be the final team in the premier league next season" they could get quite a good viewership. I think I'm right in saying it's the single biggest sporting event in terms of monetary earnings to the winners in the world. Play that up. Get the mid level premier league fans interested in the clubs coming up.

Just started watching that stream and first thing said was "That Jonathan Swift miss of last night", I take it that it's in reference to someone missing a sitter then.

Either that or a ref to the 17th century satirist and author of "Gulliver's Travels"

PSA: the revamped EFL Player, now called iFollow, is now online.

Having created a new account while using a VPN, it will let me pay €130 upfront to stream all Reading games live next season. While I haven't paid that yet, since it is letting me click on the subscribe button that I could not on my old UK-based account, I see no reason why I won't be able to watch the matches through the VPN.

I don't have that issue :)

In saying that, I think I will be moving in with the inlaws out in the middle of nowhere while we build our new home. They do not have the internet, and mobile signal is not the greatest, so it may not be worth paying for :(

Lived in Spain my whole life and had to put up with reading the BBC Sport live score updates. Move to Scotland and they make this available for everyone but UK residents. Typical

Assuming now then that there will be a dodgy stream available of every match in every professional English league for those of us that spend our hard earned cash on our families before football.
