England game only available on the Internets - **Spoilers**

Indeed, which means I'll have to put up with that **** Alan Green.
I however am not paying £5 for a stream (which could suffer, as streams are always temperamental) , I pay for Sky / and a License fee. Nice to see the FA committed to bringing the game to the masses.
I'll try and pick up a stream elsewhere, but I'm not expecting great quality.
I aint overly impressed with this. It just wouldnt feel right to me watching an England game on a computer monitor.
Its all about abit of atmosphere in the pub, or round a mates house for me. I think that the FA should have subsidised ITV / BBC for this game. Then again it might of set a precedent for them and they'd get roped into doing it in the future.

Thats what I was thinking but I doubt it will just be them, laddies, pp, sky, betfair, some of the asian books all offer same livestreaming so doubt that there will be any trouble watching it.
Just hope it isn't like the Aussie Open Tennis was where you had to pay a fee to view
A sad day indeed but it's been going that way for quite a while now.
It's all, and always is/has been, about money and nothing else.
Nothing to do with the FA fella. Its an away game and they have no control over the sale of rights.
Still its an absolute outrage that this has even been considered let alone commercialized.
Hopefully no-one will pay for this and everyone will find a free stream (which is simple) a thus killing this as financially viable before its even got off the ground.

Wonder how much they paid for the rights? Cant see any pubs battering an eyelid at showing illegal streams, how would they enforce it? Definitely onto a loser here.

This is a great idea, too many people watch football.
From their T&C's
The game will not be shown anywhere on UK television but bet365 will be Live Streaming the match absolutely free for all customers with a funded account, so you can still follow England on the road to South Africa.
Ah right, does funded mean funded previously for in credit at the moment?
It is being show FTA on TRT1 on 42 east, although it is due to encrypt just before kick off. If you have a Receiver that can decrypt BISS then you will be able to watch it. There will hopefully be a FTA feed on match day so fingers crossed.
