if you mean LiveMediaPlayer, I thought they had taken all the Sky channels off that since Bozza posted the info? Or is there another one that I missed?

They did, but you should still find the game on one of the BEin channels.

At home. Haven't decided whether to pick up a 24hr Now TV pass especially so i can watch it on't telly, or just find a stream on my computer.

A stream is the better option, Sky Sports 2 has decent streams all over the web. Save the Now TV pass for Derby (a) should you want to buy one

I will either subscribe to NOW TV for the day, or listen on Seagulls Player, depending on how I feel. The radio has the advantage of intensifying the fear factor as you don't have a clue what's going on thanks to either (a) the commentary, (b) the way it cuts out, or (c) your imagination playing tricks on you as your ears strain and your brain goes into overdrive trying to interpret the noise from the fans in either a positive or negative way for that split second/minute before the commentators verbalise what has happened. I quite like the helplessness of listening on the radio.

That's very true. The only benefit of it being via the TV is that when we make the playoffs (look at me being all positive) i can jump up and down without throwing my laptop across the room in the process.

I don't really see the point in this. Surely football is all about the highs and the lows? Burying your head in the sand for the crunch matches really takes all the fun out of it.

I think you may misunderstand me. It is not that I wish to spare myself any agony, it's that when I don't watch we get a result.

This superstition started in 1996 when every game I went to we lost (admittedly the odds on that happening were quite short that season). If I didn't go we seemed to at least get a point. If we had a mini-run at any point it was broken by my return. With relegation looming I decided I was best off supporting at a distance. Several instances of turning on the radio part way into a game and the opposition immediately scoring meant that come the fateful day against Hereford I took a long walk in the woods to avoid inadvertently taking part in any way.

Sure the jinx is both imagined and over but it does make me feel better when I can't make it to an important game!

On a cruise ship in Naples, Italy. Hopefully I can find a stream to watch on my iPhone, otherwise it'll be Radio Sussex via t'internet.

Somewhere near London Bridge I reckon. Just hope I can get there early and demand they play the Brighton game over the Reading one!
 


I could watch it at home on sky but I might decide to take myself out for the day and then just check the table at the end of the day. I'm not going to enjoy watching it whatever happens.

Similar here, I'm going horse racing at Goodwood for the afternoon. Our son is also trying hard to avoid the game - he's on a stag weekend in Exeter.
