Streaming for tonight?

Post by Ronnie Hotdogs »

Why is it £10 those in the UK but only £5 for those abroad?

It's the same service, isn't it?

Exactly. It must cost less internet to get the video from Plymouth to London/Essex than abroad. I don't get the pricing?

Because the additional £5 for those in in the UK is going towards the staff Christmas party.

Yes. You pay £5 to see the game, and £5 for not turning up. Makes sense.

Would anyone know please...

Can I purchase the game to watch but not actually watch it live as I won’t be home from work till much after kick off and would like to watch it later this evening?

Will have to avoid knowing the result much like in the Likely Lads with Bob and Terry in ‘England F.....’

I don't believe so. I think it's real time only.

(There were a couple of games earlier in the season where the full game is still showing on my account, but that's stopped).

I’m part of a WhatsApp group where the Orient score, scorers, details are sent... I also believe there are other formats such as: Soccerbase, News Now, BBC and these forums and of course the Orient Website (where streaming is from) amongst others do from time to time give supporters accounts of the games...:)

I agree with RedO - I think you'll be throwing your money away if you do that - the stream is only live whilst the match is in play

I don't want to hear about your potentially valid explanations whilst I'm having a whinge-up, thank you very much.
