Does anybody know if the Man City game is on Foxtel this weekend? Have looked on their site but cant find it at all...

[Aus_LFC]

Its weird ... I can't either

Maybe it will come up as on demand ??

Had another look, looks like they have the west ham vs bolton game, then the everton vs newcastle game and the ones in between that are not on ??

Chavski vs Villa
MC vs LFC
Pompey vs Stoke
Spurs vs Hull

It must be on demand, but maybe they have not put in in yet .... they bloody better !

The issue is with the way it's liscensed to them for online distribution they're only allowed to show a certain amount of matches for each team, they have to spread the coverage.

So early in the season they tend to not show the big teams, saving the matches up for later on when the title race hots up a little.

So there's unfortunately a good chance it won't be shown. Although we have been lucky enough to be on twice in the last 3 weeks (on demand only but).

They haven't had any live Liverpool games though as far as I know. I haven't even seen a game on the "in demand" section.

They've had 2 on the in demand service, the Manc and bitter games.

Whats the iinet all about then. Is that part of Austar or foxtel or different altogether?

[jakle]

On the foxtel football show last night (the one with Andy Harper, Robbie Slater and Mike Cockerill, they said that the Liverpool vs Manchester City will be on at 1am and on demand.

Go to this webby:

http://www.iinet.net.au/my/media/

Click the link for sport, then click BPL.

I *think* it's the exact same as the Foxtel online service. 2 live matches and between 3 and 6 on demand every week.

2 quality streams, standard at 512k and high at 1.5mbit, pick one depending on your connection speed.

First time you play one as well, right click the video, go to options, and increase the buffer time a wee bit, just stops the occasional stuttering video.

It's definitely on Fox. 1am sunday night. And the PSV game is on SBS Live as well.
