Bravo to you for being quite happy to pay the £10.
All of us fans of our Club should do the same. The firestick option is for cheapskates who are happy enough with inferior quality audiovisual. Says it all.
The Club needs the support of it's true supporters. It ain't rocket science, even for the penny pinching types, surely.
I don't mind the £10 to watch, because I can't travel to as many away games as I used to, predominantly down to health. Plus the cost for 2 of us (at least £100 a game) makes it a no brainer.
Still want to make some away games, as I love the banter and atmosphere of an away game.
Won't do Vermin away as I cannot sit on a bloody bus for hours on end.
Trouble is, the no football to be shown in GB at 1500 on a Saturday is the problem.
Used the VPN (set to Portugal- same time zone as UK just to be sure) to bypass the problem.
I will still pay the £10 for the away game- absolutely love Wyndham and his" go on son. go on. Hit it, go on hit it" fan commentating, but looking at it, the firestick could save me around £700 a year and give me better tv options than Virgin/ sky can
Not sure if anyone else thinks a club should be able to sell the stream to its home and away games, to it's own fans, without this Saturday rule having an impact
I understand that pubs/ clubs showing Yernited / Liverpool v anyone would possibly have an impact on the plastic fans attending their local clubs, so I'm not advocating getting rid of the rule, just for clubs outside of the Prem being allowed to show their own games to raise income.
Could help stave off receivership for some clubs, who have fans living around the UK, that can't make many games a season, home or away, but would happily pay a bit to watch a game on the internet.
