Never to the dark side Posted January 16, 2019 Report Share Posted January 16, 2019 For those who subscribe to BCTV do you get match commentary or just the crowd noise? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gakoe Posted January 16, 2019 Report Share Posted January 16, 2019 The only game I've watched on it was v Derby and there was commentary. I've been using hesgoal recently Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
normanhillred Posted January 16, 2019 Report Share Posted January 16, 2019 Watched the Forest game in US at the start of the season and it came with full commentary and I think Bailey Wright doing the pundit stuff. Felt like a tenner well spent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks For home games there is usually commentary away games there isn’t. The home commentor is rather annoying because he doesn’t focus on the match often talking nonsense when there is some important action going on. When he has a player in the press box with him we are as likely to be in deep discussion as to ‘ who is the best dressed player ‘. ‘ who has the most tattoos ‘ ‘ are your family over for the game ? ‘ ... than a description of what’s actually going on on the pitch. Add to that the balls he spouts such as ‘ a goal could really change things here ‘ ‘ City would love to take the three points ‘ and his infuriating comments like ‘ City just need three goals in this last minute of injury time to snatch a victory ‘ that I often turn the sound down. The crowd can be heard when they sing or respond to the action. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The crowd can be heard when they sing or respond to the action. I also turn down the volume for home games. The combination of cringey commentating and shakey cam is nausea inducing. Watching away games is definitely preferable. I really enjoy being able to watch week in week out, but there's room for improvement! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The answer is it is dependant on the home teams coverage, some provide commentary (Bristol City included) many don't Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ashtonbrizzle Posted January 16, 2019 Report Share Posted January 16, 2019 Yeah, it definitely depends on the club. Have watched all of our games since before Christmas and some do but others no sound at all. If anyone is interested, my mate put me onto somebody where you can watch all our games in the UK. Need a firestick or android device. Send me a message if interested and I'll pass on the info. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

REDOXO Posted January 16, 2019 Report Share Posted January 16, 2019 Robbo not hearing the Kaiser Palmer song witstanding it came over loud and clear in Chicago. The standard is commentary at home. The bloke is getting better and we had Korey Smith summarizing Away just sound, normally!.... If we are on ESPN+ then their is comss regardless but that’s an extra fiver a month but their stream is very poor and often cuts out so i dumped it. Crazily the dodgy streams are much more efficient but comss has been in Arabic, Swedish etc! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Constant Rabbit Posted January 17, 2019 Report Share Posted January 17, 2019 Australia gets great Foxtel coverage with ESPN and BeIN sports - I'd say 35% of games are shown. If I want to wait I can get the game sent in a data stream from a contact - hard having to wait 36 hrs to not find the result but I usually end up watching 80% of games per season.

AirlieBeachRed Posted January 17, 2019 Report Share Posted January 17, 2019 I watched every game on the site last season and haven't missed one this season. It is far better than nothing.

The crowd can be heard when they sing or respond to the action. That's why I don't bother with it, always use my RB commentary link and when we are on telly, then it's hesgoal which is usually very reliable and free. Then I have the RB commentary on as well and although hesgoal is around 30 seconds to a minute behind the action, it's good, cause you know when a goal is coming before you see it. Of course the sound on hesgoal is muted, as it's usually in Bulgarian or similar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
