Thanks.

Not to bad a stream at all, occasional freeze but pretty good and an English commentary. Have Berks radio on at the same time and you'll know when to watch due to a 30 second delay...!

Mmm...Bitty. All my streams are utter gash. Can't get anything for more than 20 seconds without buffering.

Having now watched some of it, the quality's not great. But best on offer.

This is a great thread for exiles with so many stream options. Unfortunately not one of them was useable in the 3rd world, whether by stream, TV or radio outlets

BBC channels are blocked as out of region, i-player (LKO) and even 5Live Extra for the same reasons.

However, a move to a more technologically-friendly (if more war-threatened) zone awaits me soon, so at least I should finally be able to enjoy some coverage (of course if we get to the EPL then suddenly even here will show more TV coverage of us than you could ever get in UK). I just wish Africa was aware that England has more than one league

Please keep posting the links anyway

Just thought i'd post on here that Southampton v Portsmouth (1pm) should be online Saturday.

I thought my posting rate was low but 29 posts since 2004 is good going.

Honestly, you're best bet is Reading Player in these situations - its only 36 quid for the whole year, commentary is usually reliable (they occasionally stuff it up) but you also get the entire match uploaded on the site a couple of days after the game. Personally I think its worth it for commentary alone. Although, at the moment, you may be better of paying 4.29 a month for the next 2 months then cancel and we'll be in the prem and on the tele.

First Row say they will have a link for the game tomorrow.

Thanks mate (or is that Mr 10539.4 Miles Away?), you've tipped me over the 30 mark now

The trouble here is that the internet connection is so poor that anything that involves a photo, an attachment or a video will fail.

This means Reading World, internet radio etc etc is useable for (on average) about 1 second in every 10 minutes. Hence my painful and frustrating experience with the play-off final last season after paying for a live stream

In Oz, as I found it in my recent trip to Sydney, you're lucky that all these things work like a dream. And I saw that they even show the occasional Championship match too - bliss. However, this is 3rd World Africa and it just doesn't happen like that here.

I'll just have to suffer through until the end of season and hopefully as you say, we'll make that step up to the Premier League where we will then be shown on TV virtually every match (even if I am still here) as we do get a choice of watching any 4 of the 3-pm Saturday kick off's, plus all the other early/late matches shown in UK.

Alternatively I'll get proper internet connection in my new location to cover whichever league we are in. I'm probably the only person in the world looking forward to a move to the Middle East at the moment
