greenmonkey Posted June 6, 2021 Share Posted June 6, 2021 The bookies are making England the favourites and I would love them to win it but I just don't see it happening under Southgate. I have a sneaky feeling the Italians are gonna do it. Not lost a game in 2 years under Mancini... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I watched Spurs v Liverpool and PSG v Bayern on my phone. Commentary was English and pretty good, even David Pleat. DAZN pulled out of the deal this season and nobody picked up the rights for Thailand in their place. Fortunately, I can now watch Euros, EPL, Champs Lge and Europa Lge via my local provider.

Johnny Mac Posted June 8, 2021 Share Posted June 8, 2021 I'm subscribing to teatimetv for a month for BBC/ITV. Technically it's still a stream but is better than the bog standard free stream on the net. Can also watch highlights the next morning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Southgate has let himself down badly, I thought he had a bit more about him and was intelligent enough to 'get it' but no. Critisizing the fans for booing is the same as saying they can't have an opinion. Disgraceful. It's a real shame that this nonsense is going to overshadow the football. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I’m not mistaken the Euro’s are being shown on ITV and BBC iPlayer.... so with a VPN we can watch them on the computer (although I think screen mirroring from the computer to TV is an issue with iPlayer). Another option is something called ‘BritBox’ which has all UK TV... I’ve not yet tried that. https://watch.britbox.co.uk/hub Does britbox have catch up, too? I assume not. And does it stream well? i see they have an offer until 30/6 for 2.99 a month for 3 months, plus 30 day free trial. Ta. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The difference is/was that previous holders of the rights for the CL in Thailand showed it via tv, but DAZN didn't sell it on to the tv providers here = having to watch via a website on the internet and buffering problems etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When you say tv providers here you mean True I assume, as I can't think of anyone else (tv company not streaming) here that would show it or have the means to buy it?

Bangkokhatter Posted June 8, 2021 Share Posted June 8, 2021 Up to now BEIN are only showing as providing games in MENA area, shame as their product is usually good. Maybe it will change before it starts. BBC and ITV will be available via VPN but you cannot trust them.

I can't watch football on a phone and I've never learnt how to cast/mirror it on to my tv, I've tried but it didn't work. I'm not confident on the CL next season tbh.
