    Fox Deportes was listed for me before I logged in through my TV provider.

    Niot quite sure exactly when it was added since I do not subscribe, but Fox Soccer Plus HD has been added on Verizon FIOS on channel 1010.

    Yeah, I just noticed that. Kinda interesting, I thought with losing the SPL and now being solely " Bundesliga, NRL, Super League, and AFL" that they would be getting ready to wind up, not go forward.

    hmm... Pretty sure FS+ HD was on FIOS for years, except it was on channel 1009. (I have FIOS but I don't subscribe to FS+).

    Channel 1009 has and still is FS+ on FIOS, but it never was an HD channel. There have been periods when it was available as a free preview and the picture was terrible. Channel 1010 is the HD version added recently, giving FS+ both an SD and an HD channel located next to each other.

    Is the program you want to watch on the website showing on the channel in your Dish?

    Was it still listed after you logged in?

    Yes. I attached a screen shot of part of my screen. I tried to attach a screen shot of my whole screen, but the file was too big for BigSoccer.

    Speaking of Fox Sports Go, I have to give them credit.
    They have the option to stream to chromecast available via the Windows 10 app.:thumbsup:

    Correct me if I am wrong but I don't think ESPN or NBC does that yet.

    I apologize for the confusion. I thought this was also @kalin21 post. If they can't see the programming online (even if they have the channel on Dish), it's probably because they don't air that particular programming in the FoxSportsGo site.

    It's time to merge Fox Sports 2 and Fox Soccer Plus, I think.

    Soccer in the morning, motorsport in the afternoon, mma in the evening.

    My TV says Fox Sports 2 has Multimatch 90 on Saturday for the UEFA Champions League Group Stage, but it must be for the Bundesliga.

    Fox Sports made Bundesliga club profiles shows. They are mostly on Fox Soccer Plus, but here are the ones on Fox Sports 2:

    Werdeer Bremen, Wolfsburg, Hertha Berlin, and TSG 1899 Hoffenheim today 6:00 P.M.-7:00 P.M.
    Borussia Monchengladbach, Koln, Mainz, and Stuttgart today 7:00 P.M.-8:00 P.M.
    Borussia Dortmund and Bayern Munich on Thursday 6:30 P.M.-7:00 P.M.

    I didn't see shows for the other eight clubs. There's also a Bundesliga Season Ticket preview show on Fox Sports 2 today at 5:00 P.M. and replayed on Thursday at 7:30 P.M.

    Two comments:

    1. On Saturday September 9 at 12:30 P.M., Bayern Munich will be on Fox Soccer Plus. Fox Sports 1 might have NCAA Football.

    2. On Sunday September 17 there will be a tripleheader. Hoffenheim will play at 7:30 A.M. Unless they win at Liverpool, they will play in the Europa League Group Stage on Thursday September 14, so the Bundesliga isn't making them play Saturday with one day of rest.

    https://foxsports-wordpress-www-prs...oads/sites/2/2017/08/Bundesliga-2017-2018.pdf -

    Hoffenheim vs Bayern Munich on Saturday, September 9 - 12:20 PM - will be on Fox Soccer Plus.

    Leipzig vs Borussia M'gladbach - Saturday, September 16 - 12:20 PM - is now on FS2.

    There will be a triple-header of Bundesliga on Sunday, September 17.
    7:20 AM - Hoffenheim vs Hertha Berlin - FS1.
    9:30 AM - Bayer Leverkusen vs Freiburg - FS1.

    Theres no Bundesliga matches scheduled for September 1-September 3 so not sure why NaBUru38 posted that FS1 is showing the Maryland-Texas college football game at 12:00 PM on Saturday, September 2.

    I have no idea about the stability of leadership positions at Fox Deportes but the only thing I can say is that if program directors have changed over the years, idiocy must be the top requirement for the position. They run 3 Champions League games today, with third being a repeat of the first game. And yet they finish late, which is about 1 minute before the Sudamericana game kicks off. A network that loves to edit games can't figure out how to edit pre- and post- game junk to squeeze these games in that block of programming so they can get to Argentina in time to at least show line-ups for the Sudamericana game?

    Also, if you have watched the Sudamericana and Libertadores games that use the Argentina feed, you will see ads flash on the screen, a move which is common for South American broadcasters (e.g., NTEL does this all the time). I'm totally cool with this move because it's a smart way to get some advertising income without cutting games. Yet, Fox Deportes edits every single delayed broadcast of Libertadores and Sudamericana games (anywhere from an annoying 2 minutes to a super annoying 12 minutes) so they can squeeze in commercials that most people just skip through. How about showing a full match and not editing but use these on-screen ads that can't be skipped?

    It will be interesting t see how things develop for FOX Deportes now that the Champions League is going to be on Univision.

    They will have to focus on Libertadores and Sudamericana & hopefully do things much better.
