Open Wide For Some Soccer! - Poch to the Yanks.

While you're all enjoying your super duper coverage, my Dutch premium sports channel has supposedly lost the rights to cover the Premiership, so I'm scrambling around for shitty rivers after having spent 20 euros/month on this f***ing channel that now has German league coverage. Guess I will be supporting BvB or some such this season lads..

 

A bit same here in Finland. I'm still getting the usual five games live per weekend but no way to see the rest which means missing our games regularly now. Don't mind using rivers but there's no way for me to see the game later if I'm not at home during the game and that happens often.  Only found out today and have felt right depressed all day after not missing a single game since we got promoted. :anguish:

 

:undecided: Hope it isn't the same in Sweden after being teased by the NBC coverage.

 

I believe Viasat has the rights in Sweden and they can't be as incompetent as these daft c***s. Blowing all their money on national hockey team and Formula 1 while still having the rights to everything. Also quit showing Serie A and La Liga this season. Shocking but there's no options.

 

Just for the Olympics? Ridiculous tradeoff for a 2 week event  :lol:

Nah, the yearly World Championships and the four practice tournaments which is even more ridiculous. Not surprised that they are losing money on them when they have 10-15 commentators/specialists and multiple studios for a small country like us. Just so daft.

Think it's the same in Scandinavia regarding rights from the Premier League now, all matches shown live on TV/Internet except the Saturday 3pm ones (bar one).

Could be worse. mostly just excited to be able to watch games at a normal time, if I have to stream them again then so be it.

Curious to see how the American match of the day works out... At least I won't have to listen to f***ing Alan Hansen

 

Pretty decent. Think it was about half an hour too long, I found by interest waning after the first hour. Seemed like it took twenty min to do the Swansea - ManU game.

Well done NBC I am impressed. FSC was always had the low-budget-hey-we-are-tossing-you-a-bone-so-be-grateful vibe going on. Also I am pleased the evil Murdochs aren't making any money off of this... f*ckers.

Liking the set. NBC really went after it.

 

Should see Al Jazeera's, like being in a airport terminal.
