Au contraie.
Digital TV can take up to 10 seconds to transmit and decode and deliver to the terrestrial network. Add the delay in satellite transmissions............
In some cases when I have been listening to the radio and watching the TV pictures, penalties have been taken and missed on the radio before the kicker has even started his run up on the box

To be fair, it's not f***ing hard with dimlows like you on the board!!
No! No I don't expect they will bother showing games from the worlds biggest sporting event, I expect they'll just show repeats of Eastenders and if we're lucky we might get a highlights package during grandstand on a Saturday!!
Your username must be the biggest oxymoron going!

Arthur, please don't edit my posts to try and make your point. The emphasis was on the word live following Easy's post.
You decided to edit that bit out.
It's no wonder I stopped coming on this board with idiots like you around.

I like your logic easy - it amazes me that niche hasn't been taken advantage of before.
US did have a stab at it. He opened a bookies just for sports in different time zones, then wondered why he didn't last long.

I bloody well hope so!
If games kick off at 3 and 6 then I have NO chance
FIFA.com - The matches of 2010 FIFA World Cup South Africa
Most group games kick off at either 1.30pm, 4pm or 8.30pm local time. There don't seem to be any 1.30pm kick off times once you get into the knock out stages. SA will be GMT + 2 hours, or BST + 1, so I think that means games will kick off at 12.30pm, 3pm and 7.30pm UK time?

Well there you go. Thanks for pointing that out.
I didn't decide to edit anything out, I just couldn't be f***ed to go back and get the exact quote. Regardless of the live bit it's still possibly one of the most stupid questions that has ever been asked on here and that is going some!
Don't you work in the broadcast media?

don't even go there, this whole 'matches kicking off two hours after they've finished' thing was done to death on the EnglandFans message board a few years back, f*** me you wouldn't believe the replies.
on a diffrent subject I once met an American in the Dominican Republic that changed all his US$ into £stirling before he went because he was told there were more Dom Rep Pesos to the £ than there were to the $

Move the TV (that I know is there!) into the studio? After all, it's your DUTY to inform the listeners when a goal is scored!

Before this thread I probably wouldn't. But now.....nah I would!
It's makes you wonder how these people work out how to switch a computer on, let alone get jobs and function in the real world.

If you have 4 televisions in the house it will be possible to watch "live" games which are not in sync with each other. The analogue signal will be received first , followed by Freeview , followed by Sky/VM/Freesat and finally SkyHD/VM HD/Freesat HD. Listening to the radio at the same time will be a complete headfuck.

and you can watch live on iPlayer if Beeb is showing. oddly, this is faster than digital TV, so it'll be analogue (radio+TV same time i reckon), PC, Freeview, sky, sky HD.
