Rupert Murdoch - burn in hell, you scumbag!

[swee'pea99]

Having just done a tour of the district, which has confirmed no pubs showing England v All Blacks, I'm now left muttering with impotent frustration. And yes, I know I could watch Wales and I know I could watch Ireland, but I don't want to watch Wales and I don't want to watch Ireland, I want to watch MY national team take on the world's best. But I can't, because of a bastard Australian gecko-head. May he rot in hell. And soon.



...and breathe

Wait until 2015 - BT have won the rights to show Uefa and Champions League football from ITV & SKY!

I can bet my last ruppee it won't be free :-(

I think it's already been announced that some games will be charged for, I wonder which ones those will be?

On the plus side, I won't be paying. Sometimes it's great not being a footy fan.

Last night in Scotland we got the opportunity to watch England play football, but not our own country.
I didn't watch.

Perhaps your criticism should be levelled at the RFU. They are the ones that chose to sell the rights to Sky. They could have chosen to sell them to BBC or ITV but chose not to.

You can watch England v NZ tonight at 7pm, if you can avoid seeing the score then it should be like live.

Last week you had the chance to watch the England game live, then highlights in the evening, then highlights repeated the following day. It was as if no other teams had been playing; show the game to keep them in the provinces happy then repeat the proper stuff for them.

As long as it's cheaper than Sky! Sky are a rip-off outfit of the highest order.

 

[swee'pea99]

Absolutely not! Now that I know I can watch the highlights. (I'd checked...but never thought to look at BBC3 for some reason. So I'm partly mollified. Still loath that dried out turkey-necked antipodean tho'...

 

[Paul99]

Or if it is so important to you to watch your national team you could always buy a ticket for the match?

i think its good for sport and public to watch national sport on TV, it should also help inspire youngsters to be more active IMHO

Ireland game is on BBC2, watching it now, interested to hear that Aussie RU is struggling to attract players because RL is so dominant
