DA Baracus Posted October 11, 2014 Share Posted October 11, 2014 And not just for today's game; for all our games as far as I can tell. When did this come about? In the last campaign they not only had the highlights of every game but showed all the away games. Now they have absolutely nothing. Pretty pish for folk who don't have Sky.

Ludo*1 Posted October 11, 2014 Share Posted October 11, 2014 Terrestrial television will cover all of England's games, however. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Master Posted October 11, 2014 Share Posted October 11, 2014 It's the new centralised UEFA deal. ITV got all of England's games, Sky got the rest of the home nations. BBC were frozen out completely. There'll be a few minutes of our game during the England highlights programme tomorrow. But because we play after England in the 2nd round of fixtures this week, we won't see any highlights of the Poland game. Clips on the news at best. I think today's game is the one that will make people take notice of the lack of terrestrial highlights. You didn't normally expect highlights of away games, but Sportscene was always on for the home ones. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blootoon87 Posted October 11, 2014 Share Posted October 11, 2014 Anybody watching Football Focus just now? They just said if Gauld gets a game today that he would become the youngest ever capped player. Do a bit of research lads. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just paid the Murdoch shilling, tenner for a week for all the Sky Sport channels through Now TV. Goes straight to TV through chromecast dongle.

ForzaDundee Posted October 11, 2014 Share Posted October 11, 2014 ITV have the highlights rights I believe. Those with the purse-strings at the BBC couldn't give a f**k about Scottish football. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim Leighton Posted October 11, 2014 Share Posted October 11, 2014 ITV have the highlights rights I believe. Those with the purse-strings at the BBC couldn't give a f**k about Scottish football. No, ITV won the rights fair and square and it is THEY who couldn't give a crap about Scottish football. An embarrassment of a TV organisation, especially the cutprice Scottish outpost.

Pretty pish-poor situation, really. For anyone who has the capability, the game should be on 1TV Georgia. It's at 36° East . I've managed to tune it in from midwest France. Not sure if a decent signal spreads as far as Scotland. edit for error Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DA Baracus Posted October 11, 2014 Author Share Posted October 11, 2014 Just paid the Murdoch shilling, tenner for a week for all the Sky Sport channels through Now TV. Goes straight to TV through chromecast dongle. I did that for the Germany game (through my Xbox) but don't have access in my new flat and so far have been unable to guess my neighbour's Wifi passwords.

Jim Leighton Posted October 12, 2014 Share Posted October 12, 2014 Having them on ITV4 is all well and good but it's not a station with 100% coverage in Scotland unless you have a satellite dish. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
craigkillie Posted October 12, 2014 Share Posted October 12, 2014 Having them on ITV4 is all well and good but it's not a station with 100% coverage in Scotland unless you have a satellite dish. It's on Freeview, which should make it available to almost anyone with or without a satellite dish. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
haggis pakora Posted October 12, 2014 Share Posted October 12, 2014 It's on Freeview, which should make it available to almost anyone with or without a satellite dish. Exactly, I think some people just like to moan for the sake of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You'll not be aware then that not all Freeview areas get all channels? Any area served by a relay doesn't get ITV4 as far as I know. i.e. unless you get a direct signal from one of the red transmitters on the link below, you're limited to what you get on the smaller relay transmitters they in turn feed, and ITV4 is one of the channels not carried. http://www.ukfree.tv/maps.php?c=10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
