Wednesday, November 29, 2017 Fixture: Stoke v. Liverpool Venue: Bet365 Stadium Time: 3p E / 2p C / 1p M / 12p P Competition: Premier League - Matchday 14 TV: NBC Gold
Just wait until the Premier League bubble bursts and the TV money dries up. We'll be lucky to have another version of Fox Sports World with one match per week.
I agree that it'll give eventually but doubt it would go back to 1999 levels of coverage. That sounds a little extreme.
Meet Mario Machado Soccer on TV pioneer. He brought us the FA Cup Final once a year. Then sometimes even 2 games a year. Woohoo!!! You guys are spoilt. I f*cking hate streaming. !!!!!!
in the 70s he did a first division match cut from 90 to 60min on Sunday. my guess is that he watched a tape a couple of times and did PBP after he was familiar w/ the players numbers, etc. i had no idea back then that Liverpool was a big deal in the football world.
They've got NBC Gold on sale right now for $39.99, so I caved and bought it. I'm already sick of hunting for streams that end up crapping out midway through the game. I just have a feeling that with the cluster of fixtures coming up, we're going to be stuck on that channel more often then we'd all like. So just call me...
basically stick the best teams on Gold more than us fans would like and we cave and shell out the money. $40 is not much - but it's so annoying as they keep squeezing the consumer.
Aren't they risking their ratings doing that? Guess not, since there's always a top-6 team they can put on the main channel.
Ratings are already down from last season. I have had Gold since the beginning of the season- wave of the future Next years champions league will be almost all streaming behind a paywall
I thought I read somewhere that each PL club would be shown on NBC Gold only twice over the season??? Maybe that was just a dream...traveling tomorrow, so I'll have to check the highlights Prediction, 3-0 to the Reds - C'mon boys!
It's like they reverted to drug dealer tactics. Give it away for free at first then charge them through the nose thereafter.
I just broke down and became a Gold member - and I don't loooooovvve it. After free streaming it feels like the fasha of all rip-offs.
I won't buy into it. Perhaps if it's the only way to get CL next season !!! I'll check highlights and goals after the match today.
One thing I will say for both the NBCSN and NBC Sports Gooooooooold apps, they look great on my phone.
