Creg Posted July 5, 2017 Report Share Posted July 5, 2017 Does anyone know if there will be coverage of the pre season games through the new BCTV platform? Whilst I appreciate that they're likely to be dross, the lack of games has got me antsy once again. My memory is defeating me as to whether the old BC Player offered the option, but even a crackly audio stream would be a welcome break from doing housework and longingly gazing out of the window for the remaining Saturdays until the season kicks off. Plus, it would be nice to see how the youngsters we signed get on before we inevitably ship them out on loan to an underperforming league one side for the rest of the year.

Lanterne Rouge Posted July 5, 2017 Report Share Posted July 5, 2017 Would be a good test for the system too before the real stuff starts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bristol Rob Posted July 5, 2017 Report Share Posted July 5, 2017 Suppose the other question that hasn't been asked yet, would be for sell out away games, is beam back more likely, or is it capped? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It seems to be a reciprocal agreement nowadays - if we let them beam our home game back, they do the same. I believe that happened with Leeds last season - no way either game was sold out.

It sounds like you need to get yourself along to the preseason friendlies. If only to retain your sanity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beam backs were limited to 4 per season, guess it was more of a coincidence Leeds featured twice Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AdamB Posted July 6, 2017 Report Share Posted July 6, 2017 Ref Beambacks, this only applies for Sky Bet Championship matches. With regards to pre-season friendlies; we will be covering the games live via Twitter updates - as with any other game - and we will be filming them for highlights to be shown on the club website for free. Live streaming away pre-season friendlies would be heck of a task, especially with the likes of Guernsey already struggling to just provide a decent wifi connection (hopefully will be fixed by Saturday!!). For the FC Twente game; we don't yet have the technology installed to live stream matches that are not league games. However, I understand BBC Radio Bristol maybe testing a new commentator for this fixture and therefore we may be able to provide live commentary of that match, but TBC at this stage.
