Saturday's friendly

[Guest krust]

Can anyone confirm which tv station (if any) the match against Rangers is going to be shown live on???

 

Thanks

[GWistooshort]

Not listed on Sky, Setanta or Five at the moment

 

Best I can find is from 7-8.30pm on Sat on LFC TV

[Hassony]

Rangers TV probably

[Gomez]

What is the point in a LFC TV channel, if the pre-season friendlies aren't on it? It really is some shocking organisation.

 

And whilst I am on the subject of friendlies, why don't we have a money spinning trip to the far east / america etc this summer? I thought we were meant to be trying to catch man u in the marketing department.

They can probably sell the friendly coverage for more to an external channel. Though quite how they think they'll ever get advertising money in without some actual match coverage on I don't know.

But it's not on any other channel is it?

We went to asia last year, I guess we will be going there again next season.

and none of the big teams are making the trip to america anymore it seems, because it doesn't seem to be worth it, smaller clubs like Everton and West ham are going there instead.

Rangers TV

Rangers TV

So I take it that is a subscription channel that we can't watch?

Why would they agree to that without it being on LFC TV? It's not like we are all going to sign up to Rangers TV is it?

Some went to the US last year though, and are in the far east or Africa this year. We seem to be staying at home, I wonder if no one organised one because of the expected take over?

My guess would be that because the match is at Rangers, than Rangers will have the rights to the match

dont you get that as part of the setanta package??

IIRC Rafa said we would stay at home because of the Euro Champ. Too much traveling and too long season to go far abroad.

Yes, but only if you have Setanta through Satellite (Sky) or Virgin Media (not if you get it through Freeview, BT Vision, Tiscali TV or broadband)

Anyway the match doesn't seem to be live on Rangers TV, which appears to only be on Mon-Fri & bizarrely not at weekends

How many other managers would be allowed to make that decision ? This could be seen as a bit more evidence of Rafa being allowed to run things his own way, without interference from the board room.

Man U are compelled to go to South Africa and Nigeria aswell as that January friendly in Saudi. Chelsea have been travelling, China wasn't it ?

f***ing sham this. According to their site no live coverage on Saturday but "full match coverage of the game" on Monday. Bulls***! Absolute bulls***!!

Does this mean an early session with online coverage?

[ManxRed]

If the game's anything like last night's I welcome the non-TV coverage. That's two hours of my life that I'll never get back.

they should stay home every year. Long trips pre-season, don't see the benefit to our players.

Are any of those on Sky? If so what channel number? Bit of a farce this, I thought the friendlies would all be on Setanta or LFC TV at least.
