ESPN classic

[Giraffe]

So if they show it, does that mean they pay the clubs after all?

Has a televised match ever been this confusing in the history of the whole world??

 

[Giraffe]

It does say it is on on the ESPN website, coverage starts at 7.45. I thought KO was 7.45 though?

They're not going to bother with the whole preamble thing. Savage lives next door anyway so is just going to turn up with two mins to go.

Insider confirmed to us the other day it was not on ESPN, this is a scheduling error according to him. The only channel its on is S4C, they have their own live feed here Hafan S4C

They are running a promo for it so it is 100% on S4C !!!!

Yes, yes, we know its on S4C.

ESPN are ALSO 'running a promo for it'. that's the point.

 

[B.W.]

Yes, but their running promos on ESPN too

ESPN Classic, ha ha ha

ESPN Classic, ha ha ha

Yup. Which channel is your replay and possible fourth round FA cup tie being shown on?

 

[burrish-gull]

Yes, yes, we know its on S4C.

I know but having worked in TV transmission suites I know that schedulers make mistakes, it would also be strange that its on terrestrial and satellite, makes no sense

I think there is a small difference between making a typo on a schedule, and actually going to the trouble of producing a bespoke trailer for the program. Its not a mistake. ESPN 100% intend to be transmitting the game. And given that the S4C coverage is in a different LANGUAGE, I don't think the dual transmission is THAT odd either.

Not talking about a typo, wrong promos get put out all the time (trust me) I saw the trailer myself at the weekend but asked Paul Camillin and he said it's not on ESPN. Anyway it is also live on the S4C website feed S4C Press release, which although will be Welsh, gives everyone a chance to see it

They just advertised on ESPN Classic as being on tomorrow night.

In that case the mystery deepens !!!!

 

[trueblue]

It's not a mystery at all. It's definitely on ESPN - I know someone who's working on the game for them. TV listings mean nothing when there are late changes... often a long way behind.

 

[ABIMEG2]

Its on both, S4C have rights in Wales to show Welsh teams in the Welsh language, ESPN have clearly negotiated a contract that enables them to show matches as well, though they are doing two tomorrow and The Albion are on ESPN Classic which is free on all Virgin Media platforms...including mine.

HOWEVER, I am spending the evening with five female athletes and will as usual have to
a) Listen on the radio
or
b) Look for a streaming link...which will no doubt kick off a whole new thread on here.
