Will there be one? is it possible?

Seems pretty sensible given the (probable) magnitude of the game.

If it does turn out to be a massive game, then it'll be on Sky. Thus negating the need for a beamback.

If it's a promotion decider the Albion will move heaven and earth for a beam back.

Not everyone can afford £744 a year for Sky, and celebrating with other Albion fans at the Amex is more enjoyable for some than watching at home whilst the missus darns your socks.

But they won't need to, because it'll be on Sky. Or am I missing something.

You can watch individual sky games for about £7 using a day pass over internet or nowtv box

Personally I'd rather watch at the Amex, with a load of other Albion fans and have a bit of an atmosphere rather than in a backstreet boozer where no one really cares.

I'm sure that a few of the larger pubs around might sort something out, King & Queen for example. The Brunswick, Holland Road used to hold about 200 and was great for England games. Changed a bit now though.

Assuming it IS on Sky of course, and not via a stream.

By that logic what would be the point in making a 600 odd mile round trip to the Riverside (or local pub) when everyone could watch it on their living room sofa?

I think we're at cross purposes here, what I mean is they wouldn't have to arrange a beam back as they could just switch the tellies on.

If Boro is on Sky, then I'll be somewhere in town with a bunch of Albion-supporting mates for an almighty great booze-up in a bar somewhere, followed by a quite catastrophic afternoon BINGE regardless of the result, probably winding up in a curry house, face down in a madras.

I'm going to be a complete and utter DISGRACE, so its probably best I don't do that in the Bupa lounge.
