As far as I know, we do both - just always name the official app to push it. Oops, meant we do it by official site and app. You're right, YouTube is better than both.

It is weird for us. Usually a 2pm kick off. As for free, it is on our site so I'm assuming the same. They hove their previous games on the Birmingham City YouTube site.

Going back to a previous comment, it seems as if we have two 'plans': Play it out from (and around) the back. The trouble with this is we choose to play it into players who are being pressed who, either loose it or pass it under pressure to someone else who looses it. When this fails, lump it out from the back, which, almost always, end up causing more pressure. The opposition seem to play it to a person who is not marked, leading to retained possession. Clearly something to work at. I guess it's because 'wing play' has been a traditional strength of the team but our wingers / side players get much less time in this division. Not that surprising we are discovering we'll need to work at game play now we are going up divisions, especially given the huge changes in players. Edit: I see OpenC has just made a similar point.

It is working on the official site. Live during warm-up. Not sure about the app.

They don't seem to be able to get around the fact Sunderland keep anticipating the pass and stepping in front to get it. The alternative is to lump it and Sunderland are getting their heads to most of these. Passing is an area to work on. Still 0 -1.

As far as I understand it, they can stream a set amount of games (4 I think), apart from the ones the league streams. They have done one so far. I don't know if this counts (probably not) and I can see either them or the league doing one, at least, of the Sunderland games.

Reguarding some previous posts: I agree that our forward line will not have it all it's own way. As I said in an earlier post, the further up the pyramid you go, the better defences are (in terms of players and organisation). That ,obviously, makes forward's jobs far more difficult. That is true, as well, in the men's game. We seem to be recruiting players who CAN win the league we are in if things go well. That is not to say they will win it. The other alternative is to pay through the nose for 'mercenaries', who are willing to drop down the leagues for money (assuming it's not love of the team / project). Again, as with the men's game, this can go badly wrong, given the potential personalities of such players. Where we have recruited players from higher leagues, which we have each promotion, we look to have tried to avoid this and the impact it would have on a, seemingly, well-jelled bunch. That's not to say there is no disgruntlement among the players who've been dropped. There, inevitably, will be. Football is a vicious game. Being an (ex)-teacher, I've seen my fill of kids being dropped in a instant, with a brief meeting to tell them the 'bad' news. Very few have 'made it'. We seem to want to keep at least a hint of a upwardly functional set-up though. As it's worked so far, fine. I'm sure it will change if it stops working.

Know more after Durham. Charlton are the obvious team to beat.
