Title: Next Friday's game on TV in the States.
Post by: newyankee on October 18, 2013, 02:22:15 pm

 For all the Rovers fans in the States, next Friday's game at Middlesboro is not LIVE on TV. It is actually on Bein Sport at 5pm Eastern, 4 pm Central and 2 pm Pacific. It is starting  just after the game finishes.

I think I will not listen to player, but watch it as if it were a live game.

The only time I've done that was when BBC or ITV (can't remember which) showed the Coventry v Leeds FA Cup semi from Hillsborough in 1987 in full shortly after the game finished. Needless to say I doubt such a thing would be possible now.

 Definitely have the shirt on Oslo, but as the USA have the same shirt ie red and white hoops from Nike, ie last year's shirt, I won't stand out as much as I would otherwise.
