Always Believesham Posted April 1, 2019 Share Posted April 1, 2019 11 hours ago, Monkeh said: No, i don’t think rearranged Saturday games are part of the red button deal We've had a lot of games "re-arranged" for Sundays and they've been on the red button. Unsure why both games aren't on but could it be anything to do with a limit to the number of times each team can be televised? In practice this would stop teams re-arranging fixtures themselves too much. Apparently it was City that turned down the opportunity to broadcast the Birmingham game though, Boro may have refused because they want a bigger home crowd Either way, it's a bit of a shame because I thought these games are exactly what the red button idea is for, with so many games coming up this month.

Yeah that's correct - the game does qualify for red button but only at Boro's discretion (the same applies to BCTV for domestic viewers). We chose not to allow our home game v Birmingham to be shown.

It’s a standard match for their ST holders, but maybe a few less will make midweek games than on a Saturday. As far as our fans go it went from a Saturday fixture to a night match well over 500 mile round trip, and there is the time it takes too. Seems a bit unfair if fans can’t watch it without paying due to being peanalised for success in the cup. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lrrr Posted April 1, 2019 Share Posted April 1, 2019 Think some games should be made available domestically via BCTV or whatever if the mileage from ground to ground is over a certain amount, fans can't be expected to travel from Bristol area to Middlesbrough, especially midweek. If the mileage was over a certain amount then there wouldn't be a great reduction in terms of fans not making the trip, perhaps offer 1 off games for this reason at X% of the ticket price.

CyderInACan Posted April 2, 2019 Share Posted April 2, 2019 https://www.bcfc.co.uk/news/international-livestream-available-for-boro/ NTERNATIONAL LIVESTREAM AVAILABLE FOR BORO Supporters are advised that City’s fixture at Middlesbrough will only be available via an international stream to overseas BCTV+ subscribers. The Robins make the long trip north to the Riverside Stadium tomorrow evening (Tuesday, 7.45pm KO) and Middlesbrough have opted for no domestic livestream to be available, meaning the game won’t be shown on Sky’s red button either. Tickets will remain on sale from Supporter Services until 4pm today (Monday). After that time, supporters without tickets will need to pay on the night at the Riverside Stadium.

Lord Northski Posted April 2, 2019 Share Posted April 2, 2019 Completely understand why a club would choose to not allow a game to be broadcast if there’s a reasonable chance of the away fans getting to the game. Birmingham and Bristol aren’t too far away from each other. But, given the distance between the two clubs in this instance, it’s completely absurd to deny fans the opportunity to watch the game. If it’s Middlesbrough’s decision to do this, then they should hang their heads in shame. I’ve been disillusioned with paying stupid money to Sky for sometime, but to find there’s a technicality that someone’s found which means I can’t watch a flipping Tuesday away game that’s taking place 230 miles away really pisses me off. Hope the Japanese close another one of their car plants up there, and quote Middlesbrough’s decision not to screen the game as their reason for doing it Grrrrrrrr Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RedEyez Posted April 2, 2019 Share Posted April 2, 2019 Anyone with a smart smart phone or tablet can watch the game tonight if you follow these simple steps - Download an app called Windscribe which is a VPN- I use it to successfully watch every single game. - When you first log into Windscribe you will need to make an account, which is completely free. -Once you’ve done that you will get to choose how much GB you want - choose the highest one (I think it’s 10GB) unlimited GB costs money but it’s value for money seeing as you get to watch any city game you want. -Then switch the VPN on and ensure you click and choose a country that is listed below the big on/off button. This is the clever bit that tricks your phone into thinking it’s in a country overseas. - Download Official Club App - Log in to your account via club app or make one if you don’t already have one - Purchase game for £5 on app. -Tune in at 19:45 and watch us go 5th in the league.
