Exclamation What about english Footy!!!!!!

Hi

we are a family of 4 which consists of 3 males and 1 female(Me)

We all have season tickets To Manchester City games and are big footy fans.

Can you subscribe to sky sports or anything similar to watch the footy games!!!
I realize there will be a big time difference but my men in the house will watch it at all hours!!!!!!!!

Please let me have any info on this....

Thankx

JAN

Not certain but i think they tend to have most of the games on TV there, Not sure Man city though! Hubby said you can get SKY he was only there for a year so not sure he is for sure in the know.
Im sure someone else will reply, where about you planning to go?

Contradiction in terms methinks

Hi Jan no sky over there but they have foxtel. FOXTEL They do show live prem games for the night owls. But then thats why they invented recording.

They show nearly all of the games over there, more than here....we were really surprised @ the amount of games, they are on in middle of night, then repeated.
You need Foxtel, and they do a Foxtel Plus.....so just like home....
You even get setana games !!

Thanks

footie in Oz

Hi Dave & Jan,
Don't know where your off to but in Brisbane they show alot of games at the Pig and Whistle pub Starts about midnight.I would imagine they'll do the same elsewhere. I haven't enquired about coverage to your house yet but i like you have am a season ticket holder and miss it more than anything when we go, so i found a supporters club based near where i'm moving (Brisbane Hammers) it's those who meet in the pub when the games on. I believe there's a few different fans clubs who meet there. I just feel i'll get a bit of the atmosphere i'll miss, being with fellow supporters. Hopefully i can still get games to my house but i thought the supporters club thing would be agreat way of making friends when we go.

You have taken six points from us this year so cannot really give you grief. But if you work out your cost per goal price for your season ticket, the mass savings you will get means you can buy Foxtel and either stay up or record the games on their version of sky+.
