Froggie Posted May 23, 2017 Report Share Posted May 23, 2017 Is this game available on freeview ? BT changed their showcase channel a couple of weeks ago and I couldn't watch. Something to do with HD which I don't have. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Froggie Posted May 24, 2017 Report Share Posted May 24, 2017 Unfortunately BT showcase has moved to channel 115 and is only available in HD whatever that is, so it rules me out I`m afraid. This happened the last time I was trying to watch a game recently. I presume the CL final will be likewise so will miss that as well. Better get used to this in future as no doubt WC and Euros will be pay per view. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, even if you have HD, it might not be available as different areas get different channel coverage. I can no longer get BT Showcase and presume it's the same for everyone in the region. I'm sure it was in their contract to air one CL and one EL game per week on free to air TV. No doubt there will be a "subject to availability" clause.

Spoke to me dad earlier, he's not up to trying to retune so don't know if he can get the new channel. I'll try on Friday when I'm down.

Froggie Posted May 26, 2017 Report Share Posted May 26, 2017 Yeah, I tried to retune but without success. I heard the score later on and decided not to watch the highlights later as its too late for me. I am assuming the Champions League will also be unavailable for non subscriber ? this is ridiculous now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
faraway saint Posted May 26, 2017 Report Share Posted May 26, 2017 Just tried retuning my dads TV, no joy. Aye, seems another postcode lottery, pretty shit TBH. I thought BT Sport were under some pressure as viewing figures were down so making sure as many people as possible can watch the games that are free should have been a priority. Aye frogster, no Champions League final for you or my dad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't agree - the invitees are the World Champions, the six Confederation Champions and the hosts. Certainly worth a watch and your post is prompt to remind my dad thats is on. Probably UK media aren't interested because a certain larger neighbour of ours never gets a sniff Third most important international tournament perhaps - but certainly not a diddy cup.

Main reason I stuck the fixtures onto a spreadsheet, printed it off and taking it down to my dad today. PS Should add all games are on ITV, various channels depending on scheduling.
