Subscriber RandoEFC+ Posted August 22, 2018 Subscriber Posted August 22, 2018 So after one set of fixtures, what is the overall verdict, and does anyone have a Samsung phone or other Android, and know anything about whether it is possible to cast that to any apps on your smart TV? Seems unlikely at the moment sadly unless they're releasing an Eleven Sports tv app. Finally, can you log into this on your laptop?

But I can tell you as others have done that the quality and professionalism considering this has only just started is fantastic.

Verdict - first impressions very good. Streaming quality is superb and apart from one audio glitch during one game where I had to restart the app, no issues at all in 3 games I've watched. Doesn't take long to restart either. No problems logging in or loading streams. Casting - not tried it. Probably unlikely. App - already an app which is very easy to use. Laptop - yep!

Although if you don’t have Chromecast then you cant.
SirBalon Posted August 24, 2018 Posted August 24, 2018 Just heard rumours from the upper echelons of where I work that Eleven Sports are already in negotiations for the sale of their network to Apple Inc. This is apparently a strategy in Apple's attempt to pre-empty Amazon and their known interest in acquiring premium sports from around the world. It doesn't stop there... Apple Inc. are looking to tumble media giant SKY International PLC and obtain the Premier League also in the next five years as they join forces with Telefónica SPA (the Spanish telecommunications giant that also owns the worldwide giant Movistar) that own a majority in British Telecommunications (BT). Watch this space because our football is about to change and it's all going online!
Administrator Stan Posted August 31, 2018 Author Administrator Posted August 31, 2018 Just subscribed to the Early Bird Annual pass for £50. Free 7-day trial ended and it's a no-brainer considering it's £6/m after that so that's £72 per year. Saving a bit for the next 12 months and no doubt Eleven Sports will pick up more coverage of football or other sports going forward. Plus the standard is seriously good for streaming.

How do you get the free trial? I downloaded the app and it's asking me to buy a pass.

SirBalon Posted August 31, 2018 Posted August 31, 2018 On the annual subscription myself too. Very good value for money.

In the XXI century to read the word PROHIBITED where showing something as mundane as football on a tv screen goes beyond anything that's thrown at Victorian society had it been active in our times. It's so backward! Lucky I can watch it with my Canal+ subscription but for those living in the UK that have subscribed to Eleven Sports and that THEY ARE willing to show it as its part of their schedule but aren't permitted must make some feel that they're living in a bubble that has no association with anything elsewhere on the continent let alone the world.
6666 Posted September 15, 2018 Posted September 15, 2018 The football blackout on Saturdays is a weird one. Not just because of foreign leagues not being shown here but literally every other country gets to watch our games during that time which we're not supposed to watch. It's also one of the reasons the prices of tickets are high.
Administrator Batard Posted September 15, 2018 Administrator Posted September 15, 2018 What absolute planks. The FA that is. That rule was to protect football clubs in England from their fans staying away and damaging the sport as a whole. Note, England. As if the majority of footballing fans were to turn around and say “bollocks to my season ticket. Real Sociedad are streaming on an internet service!”

It’s a dinosaur rule, not exactly shocking that FA is still run by dinosaurs.
SirBalon Posted September 16, 2018 Posted September 16, 2018 For me it’s all about the word PROHIBITED in the 21st century on something that causes no danger to anyone. It’s totally draconian. It’s a mark of our society in the UK and how we function as a collective that these things are permitted to exist. I don’t know of a first world country where this could be something that is allowed to exist. At least not in Europe.
Honey Honey Posted September 16, 2018 Posted September 16, 2018 It's a joke. That people complain about games being moved for the TV and simultaneously complain when they can't watch a game on tv.
Dave Posted September 19, 2018 Posted September 19, 2018 FIFA president Gianni Infantino has voiced his objection to leagues playing competitive games abroad ahead of a proposed Girona vs Barcelona La Liga match in Miami. As part of a 15-year deal signed with entertainment and sports group Relevent in August, the Spanish top flight wants to play at least one regular-season game a year in North America. This season, Girona's 'home' game against Barcelona is set to be played in Miami's Hard Rock stadium on January 26. "I think I would prefer to see a great MLS (Major League Soccer) game in the US rather than La Liga being in the US," Infantino said. "In football, the general principle is that you play a 'home' match at 'home', and not in a foreign country." He then explained "there are procedures in place for these things" and said FIFA "will wait to receive anything official and then we'll look into it".
Administrator Stan Posted September 19, 2018 Author Administrator Posted September 19, 2018 encouraging to hear but can still see it going ahead and being more regular in future, and that there will be 'procedures in place'
...Dan Posted September 26, 2018 Posted September 26, 2018 Instead of showing both of tonight's 9pm kick offs they're showing Real Madrid on two channels...wtf?
