Calling all German, Austrian and Swiss based Seagulls!

[Austrian Gull]

Great news for us Central European exiles - Sport 1 (formerly known as DSF) are showing the Liverpool v Albion game live next Sunday.

Just for once we can all forget about live streams and buffering and be able to watch an Albion game on a TV screen.

Bring it on!

Anyone know where the match might be shown in Vienna? Stupidly I decided it would be a great place to visit over the last weekend of the half term hols (we were supposed to be away at Hull!). Guidance from Austrian fans welcome!

Flanagans should have it on. It's the only Irish pub I know In Vienna but I'm sure there are others!

If you have any other questions about Vienna, don't hesitate to ask!

Great stuff. I will slightly amend our plans for Sunday to ensure we end up in Flanagans at around 5.30 (Austrian time). We should be cultured out by then, so a pint and a pie will come as a blessed relief...

Is this definitely on normal German TV,,,? Treat for El Loco if so...

yes DSF (Sport 1) received loud and clear here in Mayen ........ WOW!!!!!!
although they have a tendency to change their mind for a meaningless Handball game or similar at the last moment
but if so
a first in my 15 years over here...not sure if the 1983 FA cup Final was covered live ...could well have been...
but who cares I was at Wembley! this is a first!
party time! ...

That was magic too...!

Sounds like it will be easier for you to watch than me...! I don't get ESPN and will need to find a pub showing it in Eastbourne.

ps I'm enjoying this website at the moment... we7 - Free Music, Listen to Music Free on we7 Radio - Love Your Music - Home - The Jam Radio

Oh... not so magic... why would they do that? (still smarting over '66...?)

 

[madinthehead]

Nice, if it happens!!! Will check it out closer to the time.. They always have one or two FA Cup games on.. Was hoping it would be this one!!

Isn't Germany an hour ahead of the UK? That's possibly why (Kick off is at 4:30)

excellent news : i thought it was a 4pm kickoff but as its 4.30pm thats perfect,
the only dangers now are a will buckley goal in the 97th minute which wont fit quite into the schedule
that ... and that skiiing and shooting business , or jumping off the end of a snowy slope , sledging with my mate where germany always comes first to fifth and an austrian will be sixth, highlights of the 1990/91 Bundesliga season and that ffs 2nd division handball game that could appear out of nowhere ...

still the crate of beer is ready for Albion, Albion , Albion and the Gus Bus!

Thanks Austrian Gull, I'm sure you've made many a foreign seagull happy.

Now this German-based gull will confuse matters: I'll be in Paris (so I can escape Karneval). Anyone any idea where to watch in the capital of grenouilles?

Du Arme! Sounds like you've been here too long...

Bet you can't wait for EURO 2012 German commentary for every game.

Glad to be of service. Had a quick look for French coverage - it should be on France 4 according to this link:

FA Cup, 5 matches diffusés en direct les 18 et 19 février sur France 4. - Leblogtvnews.com

Manu Petit as co-commentator!

I couldn't get France 4's TV guide to work so no official confirmation.

Viel Spaß in Paris! Allez les mouettes!

These are all valid points spoken by a man embittered by Sport 1's tendency to cock around with their schedule.

I've had a look - we should be alright. There are no live events on that afternoon's schedule. Our only worry might be the following programme - German 2nd division highlights at 19.20. They've not left a lot of time for injury time...We might miss Buckley's 97th minute winner!

 

[Husty]

I'll be watching

Yeah Flanagans. Charlie P's, Molly Darcy's or the Four Bells are other options. (used to live in Vienna until last year)
