Thread: Champions League Final on TV........or not

  1. #1

    Champions League Final on TV........or not

    I was going to invite some friends around to watch the game (and I won't say 'for a soirée' as one poster on here thought I was being pretentious rather than ironic by using that word) and just realised that it's not yet scheduled to be on terrestrial TV. I know that BT, who owns the rights to broadcasting the game in the UK, chose to make it free-to-air last season but no such announcement has yet been made this time around.

    BT have shown it free on YouTube every season since having it I think. I guess they don’t like to advertise it too far in advance as they are hoping people will choose to take out a package with them to watch it.

    More importantly, is he a BT subscriber so that he can watch the game?

    I think I've watched each CL final since it's moved to BT, despite not having BT Sport.

    They've used a channel on Freeview called BT Showcase, or Channel 100 on Virgin which Virgin use mainly for advertising themselves.

    You are quite right there, it doesn't

    I'm just voicing my opinion on the game.

    I will never, ever forget the last Final between Liverpool & R. Madrid. Watched it in a packed put in Zooprt with 200+ locals all cheering Liverpool on!! Even booing Bale when he got the ball. Probably the same dipsticks would be chanting 'Viva Gareth Bale' at Wales games. Oh how I laughed when he scored...

    I watched it in a pub in Manchester, very Blue leaning pub. One bloke cheered when Liverpool scored, dear God the death stares he got. Bale was a hero in there that night.
