As it stands you can stream it on their website or through an Apple/Android app (they claim to be in talks to get it on TV too). Prices supposedly announced next week. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jmothecat2 Posted July 28, 2018 Share Posted July 28, 2018 Looking likely it won't be on actual tv in the immediate future, which is a bit annoying. My computer is too old to stream things properly so would be reduced to a tablet. If the price is reasonable though I might go for it. Apparently in some countries they have an option of just paying for individual games. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would be BT I assume if they went down this route. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Herman Hessian Posted July 28, 2018 Share Posted July 28, 2018 those fixtures are provisional to a degree; the Chievo situation has still not been clarified; initially, the case against them was dropped due to an error in the presentation by the "prosecution" (their figures detailing the misappropriated funds was wrong by €25 million o thereabouts - heh); Crotone - who stand to be reinstated in to Serie A if Chievo are relegated have however started their own legal action and have forced a review of the case; all going to be clarified by next weekend, by all accounts... a new club has been formed in Bari; not sure if that signals an end to their efforts to appeal the insolvency of the original set up though; henderson and half of the remaining squad are still not official Hellas players yet (four moves pending), as Bari (old club)'s status has not been confirmed - again - to be resolved by next Saturday at the latest, probably sooner... on the upside - first meaningful game of the season tonight - Casertana v Picerno in the Coppa Italia - yay 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RiG Posted July 31, 2018 Share Posted July 31, 2018 (edited) Mattia Caldara and Leonardo Bonucci swapping from Juventus to Milan and vice versa respectively. Milan also picking up Higuain on loan for around £18 million with an option to buy him for an additional £35 million.

DutchBorderer Posted July 31, 2018 Share Posted July 31, 2018 Herman was kind enough to enlighten me regarding the situation of Bassano and Vicenza-whatever-they-are-called now, but I don't understand why the owner is fusing both clubs now that Vicenza has gone bust. Couldn't he have just bought the old club outright whenever he wanted in the past? Italian football is confusing, man. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure Herman's explanation was comprehensive, but there's another here: https://www.football-italia.net/122182/official-vicenza-merge-bassano I don't think you can own two clubs in the same division due to conflict of interest concerns, so he'd have had to sell Bassano to buy Vicenza, whereas he could just pay €1m for the bankrupt club and merge the two, while preserving league status. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Herman Hessian Posted August 1, 2018 Share Posted August 1, 2018 (edited) legal goings-on update: Bari and Avellino both have their appeals rejected - the former's bankruptcy is confirmed, and it's relegation to Serie C for the latter; Bari's players freed up to sign with other clubs, which means that Henderson to Hellas (along with half his former team-mates) can now be completed Chievo's hearing delayed for 24 hours - Luca Campedelli was ill (had to present a doctor's certificate !) and could not attend the proceedings, hence the delay ETA Novara and Catania have been restored back to Serie B to fill the gaps left by Bari and Avellino Edited August 1, 2018 by Herman Hessian 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Allan Jacobsen Posted August 2, 2018 Share Posted August 2, 2018 Aurelio De Laurentiis has bought the Serie D incarnation of Bari. Napoli fans not happy. ADL says his son will be running Bari so there is no need to be upset. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jmothecat2 Posted August 3, 2018 Share Posted August 3, 2018 £5.99 a month, or £59.99 a year (£49.99 if bought in August). Online only though there are apps available for iPads etc.A decent price but not being on tv is probably a deal breaker for me. Watching football on a small laptop or tablet screen is just annoying. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr. Brightside Posted August 3, 2018 Share Posted August 3, 2018 Decent pricing, if you can cast to your TV then that’s great.Also they did say they were looking into getting it broadcast on TV somehow. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coooombe Posted August 3, 2018 Share Posted August 3, 2018 If they manage to get a channel on BT TV then I'll consider it, but f*ck watching games on your phone. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
