Re: Sky sports + : Fri Aug 09, 2024 5:01 pm  
Fully understand the frustration here, but stepping back a bit - from this year we've had more live RL on the box than ever before. Sky, Sky+, Now TV, terrestial, Wire TV, SuperLeague +.
For me the issue is which is the best option to give me what I want at a easonable cost without too much duplication. We're half way through the season and I still can't figure it out.
Currently have a 6 month SuperLeague + subscription and Now TV on either a match by match basis or monthly basis depending on where and when the matches are shown, and what I am otherwise doing.

Years ago there was only Sky, and before that nothing apart from the cup on the Beeb. Going back further there was a fairly regular Saturday match on Grandstand.

All in all I'm quite happy with RL life!

Totally agree. I am loving my NowTV at £26PCM. I get to watch about 8 games of RL per month and all of our games.

Re: Sky sports + : Fri Aug 09, 2024 6:47 pm  
Yeah but we've gone from being able to watch all games to now having to pick between certain games, so for me i'm now paying the same to now watch less.
I'm not happy as i tend to watch 5 out of the 6 games each week. So this is a backwards step as you can't record them, so have to pick one or the other. If the full games are available after the game is played on catch up i'll just have to adjust my watching times. If not i'll just cancel sky sports and just listen to our matches on the radio and save my money.
Everyones different but for me this is S#!t and ruins my enjoyment of the games :-(

Anyone managed to log in to Sky Sports and watch a Sky Sports+ game in delay yet? I haven't managed to find them... But could well be looking in the wrong place!

What a load of rubbish, once again RL the red headed step child of Sky. No offence to any red headed step children present! I'll just wait til games appear on YT a few days later, there's some excellent RL accounts that post full games pulled from Aussie TV in HD.

As an aside, pretty sure the beeb committed to a monthly game a la Channel 4, yet they've shown naff all since the CCF over 2 months ago.

Re: Sky sports + : Sat Aug 10, 2024 1:51 pm  
I can confirm that I was able to watch the games last night using the Sky Sports App on my iPad. I'll try using my Windows laptop this afternoon but I've already checked to see that I can view other things on Sky Sports+.

I received several calls from my father last night to say that he was having problems getting it on his tv. I tried to talk him through the process / suggest a few things, but it ended up with him calling me back at 10pm to say that he'd been on to Sky and the outcome was that they were sending him a new remote control this week (his existing box should be ok).

Given that he's 92 (listeners to the 'What Would Brian Bevan Say?' podcast may know him by his pseudo name of Alan London but, despite what my brother may tell you, he isn't 103), and very deaf, I pity the poor woman in the call centre who had to deal with him.

Re: Sky sports + : Sat Aug 10, 2024 1:59 pm  
Many have had moans about this me included because you can’t record games on the stream but you have to remember before this season there were only 2 games live. So if you can not attend a game only option was the radio.

We were told at start of season games later would go on to the stream when it started at beginning of new football season, up to this point we have been spoiled with all the games shown over all the normal channels and able to record them. I have come to accept it is what it is and at some point they upgrade the tech that you can record games on the stream.

My old man was on with sky for an hour he's got an old sky plus digital box, probably 15 years old if not more Thurs he eas told it was fine, last night he was told he needed a q box, as minimum, they were offering him two to placate him, but sept before it could be installed
