Europa cup qualifiers thread - **Spoilers**

BT Sport streams, weird issues for the community shield and tonight awful, literally awful quality on both Europa league games. When illegal streams of games from the worst providers are getting equal or better quality you know you've screwed up. Sky Go does a good enough job, I mean they aren't doing 1080p nor even 720p, but it's not bad with only the odd drops in quality for a few seconds before increasing quality again. The BT sport streams are really really awful.

Spend billions on getting more football tv deals, attempt to deliver it to most customers over the internet, basically control the UK internet infrastructure.... not have enough bandwidth to serve all customers with quality befitting this century.... yay :(

Hopefully we won't get this level of crap quality all year long for champs league/europa when they are doing more than one game at a time.


Currently West Ham sucking, 4-3 down on aggregate, Southampton just made it 6-0 on agg I think, 2-0 on the night. Will laugh if West Ham get into play offs via fair play, get three red cards in three rounds and crash out before the group stage anyway.


Streams in general, particularly on PC< are a joke. Amazon won't do 1080p streamed via a PC but will via things like ipads, ps4, Wii U, etc. BT won't do HD over the internet but will now offer up to 4k on their own boxes. PC streamer are being utterly screwed by Sky, BT, Amazon. I think Netflix is the only one of them offering decent 1080p streaming on PC.

BT been good for me since taking it up a month ago.

I guess it largely depends on the local infrastructure.


Looks like West Ham are out already. Got the feeling it's going to be a difficult old season for them...
 
BT Sport steam absolutely fine for me, solid HD all the way through. Southampton barely at a canter for that game and capitalised on some sloppy play from Vitesse, wasn't expecting 100% given the league is days away.
 
They were fielding youth teams in Europa though weren't they? Don't get the impression they wanted it really but I don't think you judge their first team squads upcoming season based on B team Europa performances
 
So Scotland no teams on Europa league yet papers and media here keep saying that Aberdeen are good enough but I suppose with 2 million top prize money what do you expect. With 10% of their revenue it's a pity that SKY/BT don't put 10% of the football revenue into Scotland...... gone are the days of equality for the UK.
