Offical stream is as good as you will get for online streaming.  If you want to see your team as I did this is the most reliable.  You expect bias to Rangers but it's not OOT. English commentator gave a good impression of quality.  My wee review from an away fans perspective.

Normally (as recently as the A'deen game) I would log on to RTV and immediately select 480p for the picture quality and it would still scroll regularly throughout the game.  On Sunday, though, I left the browser on 'auto' (which I guess is 720p) and it was perfect for the 2hrs I was watching.  They must have invested in a serious server/bandwidth upgrade. 

As far as the production itself goes - well it was obviously Rangers-centric but was pretty professionally done.  Emma Dodds in the anchor role was excellent as was Clive Tyldesley.  The 'professionals' were a mixed bag.  Neil McCann is always good, Alex Rae's a bit of a dick, Kevin Thomson's words are clear and coherent but his delivery is boring as f**k and Niko Katic looked a bit lost.

Overall? 10/10 for the stream and 7/10 for the production.

I agree with you about Tyldesley, although he did like to mention Liverpool fc a few times too many. He even managed to talk about Dallas's previous controversial penalty fest game. 

Definite improvement on previous service.

I've never been a huge fan of Tydesley's style of commentary, but I'll admit that having him there instead of Tom Miller is a huge step up in quality. 

Kevin Thompson is pretty good, but just needs to inject a bit of personality.

we’ll never find out whit the goalie was doing.☹️

An excellent review. However, we will agree to disagree about McCann.

+1 for the Rangers TV actually being ok. I must admit I didn't watch the build up, but the in-game stuff was thoroughly decent.

I had my phone on WiFi, 30mbps connection, and then cast it to my TV. Decent picture the whole time.

Never crashed once on Hesgoal,  good value for money.

Agreed. Would have been 10/10 had they not mentioned that cup final, so I'll have to deduct 3 for that [emoji2957].

Clive was top class on commentary, really impressive. Wasn't as biased as he was doing the England games.
