[Football] Who is watching too much televised football?

[Icy Gull]

Getting ridiculous, Albion on Saturday (although it was live and was a must do, I’d have watched on a stream if I couldn’t go)
Liverpool vs United (only the second half though)
Brentford vs Fulham last night
Chelsea vs Dortmund tonight

This season has turned into a must watch for so many games. In the past I’ve mostly only watched Albion, unless I was bored, until late in the season when other results could help us stay up/ get relegated/give us our best ever season

Anyone else now watching more than they used to?

 

[Swansman]

I am watching too much televised football.

I am watching too much televised football.

You are a bit stuffed living where you do

 

[Guinness Boy]

I am also watching too much televised football, though probably not as much as @Swansman

 

[Machiavelli]

I am watching too much televised football but, then again, the time of year to watch too much televised football is from about a month ago until the end of the season*



*we binned off SS and BT Sport from the end of last season, and only went back to it after the WC had finished.

 

[dazzer6666]

Definitely.........joy of separating our lounge into two rooms at home, she watches soaps and reality shite, I watch football - reckon I average at least a game a day.
Also watching 2-3 live matches per week in addition

I use Now TV @ £25 a month (with the quality upgrade) as it covers football and the Grand Prix. Unless Albion have at least two games on BT Sport over month, I don’t bother with a monthly pass ( and revert to a stream) I cannot justify full blown Sky

Streams are remarkably good these days

 

[hart's shirt]

Not me.

But I'll have a think about it at half-time.

Yup, no football here in the winter and my city is probably the worst football city in Europe with a 100k+ population.

I watch maybe five games per day (although quite a few of them half-hearted as I'm usually working at the same time) and probably double that on weekends. Not always time well spent but hey.. its football.

 

[Paulie Gualtieri]

Probably, but is it such a bad thing?

I watch any televised football. I love it.

Define ‘too much.’ I watch a lot but more than happy with it. I get the point of the thread though. This successful season for the Albion has had a knock on effect of extra interest in the game in general. I even watched some of Maidenhead v Wrexham although that was mainly because I used to support the home side in the Southern League and I wanted to marvel at a full York Road.

 

[Oh_aye]

I think I'm currently watching the least televised football I've ever watched. Genuinely can't remember the last non albion game I've seen. Might be the world cup. And the last Albion match I watched on TV was Stoke. No chance was I going there with those neaderthals

 

[Jeremiah]

Yes I am watching too much football at the moment . Very little else worth watching on TV though

 

[pasty]

I don’t usually watch much non Albion football as we’ve only got Sky on main tellybox in the lounge. However there is so little quality on other tv nowadays I sit and watch almost any football on my laptop now and leave Mrs P watching all the shit she seems to like.

One for the kidz

 

[southstandandy]

Far less now than ever. Not paying Sky or BT when most of the time you can see the games for free so easily, but too much footy puts me off.

 

[LamieRobertson]

Yep….but Sky sports and Bt sports are going when contact ends in July, so making the most of it while i can….mind u last nights fair was turgid and ive found a few recently just so zzzzzzz….much prefer being in the stadium and as i dont live far away from The Amex I’ll take one game there against 20 on tv any day of the week

 

[kojak]

I'm a 2nd half watcher generally
