Live commentary on 5live extra apparently.

This is the Steel City Derby. The sixth biggest city in the UK with about a million people directly affected in and around the area and possibly half a million worldwide.

Birmingham vs Lecester? Aye. Global, that is.

Sky have no qualms in showing Yeovil v Carlisle, but not this. Tits.

 

[SaintBlade]

BBC only have rights to show one Championship game a month so they wouldnt be able to show this game anyway. I am surprised its not on Sky though.

 

[kent-blade]

Ive just spent 20 minutes feverishly digging around for streams, to no avail. Anyone else had any luck?

 

[pommpey]

Five live extra

 

[kent-blade]

Yeah, seems the best option there is. I had vainly hoped it was being aired on some channel somewhere in the world.

Maybe it something the club should look in too in regards to streaming it on the OS. I don't know what the TV rights are regarding live streaming and the BBC/sky highlights deal but I'm sure something like this could be a good money spinner i.e fans paying 5quid to watch the match on their computer. I know the goverment prevents football matches being shown live in the UK for 3pm Sat match but this one is on a sunday lunch time. The t+c would have to say no pubs allowed to show it, is prob one reason why it is not live as many fans from both sets would be in the bars watching it + drinking

What you're asking for is not dissimilar to what the Liverpool chief exec wanted, which is the right for individual clubs to sell their own TV rights. It's not allowed at present and it certainly shouldn't ever be allowed if we are to retain any semblance of competitiveness in our league.
