The Humble Realist Posted October 17, 2020 Report Share Posted October 17, 2020 No need to get Robin's tv if u have sky this tuesday if this is anything to go by www.qpr.co.uk/news/club-news/preston-and-barnsley-fixtures/%3fdisplayMode=GoogleAmp Looks like the game will be on the red button . Bit awkward for the club as they probably wont want to advertise it being the red button as theyll want to maximise PPV take up Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It`ll be worth checking it`s still showing on the day though as there`s been a lot of contradictory info regarding red button games up to now. I see the Bournemouth game is showing as on there too.

New Dazzler Posted October 17, 2020 Report Share Posted October 17, 2020 This seems to confirm that all this weeks champ fixtures on red button. As stated, can't see the clubs being too chuffed about it! https://www.skysports.com/watch/football-on-sky Press the 2 "load more" button. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

elhombrecito Posted October 17, 2020 Report Share Posted October 17, 2020 Watch midweek Championship matches live across Sky Sports this season. All games taking place across midweek rounds in the 2020/21 season on Tuesday and Wednesday nights will be available live to Sky Sports customers on the Sky Sports Football Red Button - alongside the featured game being shown live on Sky Sports Football. Sky Sports Football customers can also see each match streamed live on the Sky Sports app - simply sign in with your Sky iD to view and make sure you have the latest version of the app. For Sky Q customers, the matches on the Red Button will be available in HD quality and the service comes at no extra cost. All games, including those on the Red Button, will also have their own commentators. Midweek matches are only available through these channels and cannot be watched with a NOW TV pass and are also not available in Sky pubs. Please note: We can only show rescheduled, displaced midweek games or games taking place away from Saturday at 3pm that aren't part of a regular midweek round on the Red Button where respective clubs stream them on their iFollow app. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A Horse With No Name Posted October 18, 2020 Report Share Posted October 18, 2020 isn't it strange the amount of anti sky posts that appear on here normally, things like Sky is killing football, and why would anyone subscribe when all games have a stream somewhere, and dodgy boxes for 90 quid a year etc. Not to mention the abuse the cameramen get at televised home matches. Then suddenly, everyone seems to have it, or want it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The options don’t appear until approx 15 minutes before KO I've got a feeling that you have to tune into Sky Sports football which is 513 on Virgin Media, of course it is so long ago that the Red Button showed Championship games, but that is my recollection. Of course, they might change that anyway! Always found it to be a decent service for no extra money, only one camera zooming in and out, no replays and you could not use the pause button, or record it (on Virgin anyway, not sure about sky dish). I would assume that Sky would pay the clubs some serious dosh to compensate for doing this, and hitting them financially, but no idea what that would be.

Manray Posted October 18, 2020 Report Share Posted October 18, 2020 The red button games on virgin were so bad quality I couldn't even make the players out, was a lot better quality when I used to watch them on sky red button Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
