Stepgar Posted 24 September, 2012 Share Posted 24 September, 2012 Can be. You can pretty much listen to any other game you want, the are lots of video interviews, youth, and reserve highlights,. They also put long versions of highlights on. Te one thing I think they could do better is quality of video. I have virgin bb 60mbs and the quality is still quite poor. This is propbably because the c,UB does not own the site. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pilchards Posted 24 September, 2012 Share Posted 24 September, 2012 Yes it is worth it as you get to watch the highlights, uncovered or the full live game from Sunday/Monday onwards. It's dull during the season break though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dubai_phil Posted 24 September, 2012 Share Posted 24 September, 2012 Now we are in the PL every game is going to be streamed somewhere as every game is televised worldwide. Things like the noddy cup then it will be useful. The Interviews & video clips (if I am honest) really aren't something that I bothered with in the years we were in the lower leagues. Most of the interviews were dissected in great depth on here anyway before I got to them. Occassionally useful if you want to watch goals again if you missed a game. I wasn't going to bother this year but then found only Arabic taters in the Pub so have renewed and can now give the guys DM while in the pub! It'llo be out of sync but then so are we after a few beers The Sheff Wed game clinched it really No other way to guarantee being able to listen as we cannot (easily) stream IPlayer or Beeb Radio over here (except World Service) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saint Garrett Posted 24 September, 2012 Share Posted 24 September, 2012 Great service in the lower leagues or if you don't get to go to games. If you have sky plus I wouldn't bother unless you dont live locally and can listen on the radio. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnnyboy Posted 24 September, 2012 Share Posted 24 September, 2012 I like it a lot , but one thing I noticed during the villa game is that it is quite a long way behind the actual game. I had Twitter running at the same time and the twitter updates were telling me about the goals and penalty a good minute before big Adam and whispering Dave told me !! Was quite bizarre !!

Did they both finish as the same score? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had Twitter running at the same time and the twitter updates were telling me about the goals and penalty a good minute before big Adam and whispering Dave told me !! Was quite bizarre !! It started doing that after half-time, it was Ok in the first half (or I think so). Then suddenly people started posting up goal Clyne on the match thread and Player was still talking about some Villa move breaking down. The lag seemed to get longer and longer, they hadn't even got to the point where we got the penalty before Rickie scored it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BotleySaint Posted 24 September, 2012 Share Posted 24 September, 2012 Worth it if you need radio commentary and don't live locally. Also good for keeping up with the youth teams. And for watching the goals at a later date. So overall, yes I think its worth it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
norwaysaint Posted 24 September, 2012 Share Posted 24 September, 2012 Haven't used it since we've been in the prem, but I'll keep it on for the year. Still happier to spend my money on saintsplayer than on a subscription to this place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It isn't even as good as the lowest quality on youtube half the time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still good for those of us that cannot travel down to many games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
