Match of the Day

Elixir · 4 Dec 2011 at 09:00

Is there any way I can watch it on demand or something? I'm always busy Saturday nights and hate missing it. :mad:

EDIT: And I don't fancy getting up at 7:30 every Sunday to watch the repeat.

I can never find it on iPlayer, I read something a while ago about them not putting it on iPlayer because of licensing issues, or something? Might have been a load of rubbish though.

Yeah, just found this on the BBC Sport website:

http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/front_page/6183981.stm

Both Match of the Day and Football Focus are simulcast on the website every weekend - but we can't currently offer the programme on demand throughout the week or on iPlayer because the BBC don't have the rights to show Premier League action on the web outside of live broadcasts.
However, MOTD2 is available on BBC iPlayer every Wednesday for five days.
Find out how to watch Match of the Day on the BBC Sport website here.

Sucks.

So they can show MOTD2? :confused:

OP: Why don't you record it? If not then getting up early is your only chance.

I don't have a PVR unfortunately. Looks like I'll need to get used to waking up early or invest in one!

As MOTD is pretty much the only thing I'd use it for I can't really be bothered... was just wondering if there was an easier way.

There is but its illegal....

Slightly OT but does anyone know if MOTD is shown worldwide? and if so what countries? just curious really.

Get a usb TV dongle for your PC and you have an instant PVR, can be had for circa 20 quid.
