Brighton radio streams for overseas fans?

I always have loads of trouble getting a stream for the games that aren't on tv, I'm in France and all the BBC radio streams etc are always geo-blocked, I've tried free VPNs in the past and they normally make no difference (don't really want to pay for one for the little use I'll give it), anyone got any tips on getting a stream? Cheers.

I've always presumed that was geo-blocked since it's official, is it not?

I also live in France and would happily pay for a legal subscription to watch games live. I don't understand why commercially the Premier League don't sell this outside of the UK, equally I do understand why the beeb block access to non-licence payers like us.

I look forward to the day when I can watch a legal HD stream of live matches here in France. Mind you, my internet speed is currently crap because we live in the middle of nowhere...

Given the amounts of money paid for the rights to broadcast live PL matches it's amazing that they're not available to anyone anywhere for some sort of price. To start with it's still the case that no Saturday 3pm match is ever broadcast because some idiot thinks if I can't watch Palace on the telly I'm just going to shrug my shoulders and toddle obediently down to Cliftonville to watch Albion Rovers get turned over again by someone slightly less s***e than they are. But then there's a whole load of other matches that Sky and BT don't broadcast but they will bend over backwards to stop us watching them when someone else broadcasts them using rights that apply in other countries.

It's easier to watch Palace games live in China than it is in the UK and that's f***ing bonkers.

Next time they entertain bids for these rights packages it ought to be a selection criterion that the purchaser will actually broadcast the sodding games. And consign that 3pm blackout to the dustbin FFS.

Apparently the game is live on NBC Sports Gold in USA - so I imagine there will be a stream via Vipbox etc

No, the whole point of it was for foreign fans to listen to our games especially back in the Championship days

We get 3pm live games here in Canada - usually a choice of about 4. In about 75% of the time that includes Palace. So basically I get to see Palace live a lot more than I ever could in the UK. That's great as long as we are in the Premier League because on this side of the pond it is the only English football that is acknowledged. If ever we get relegated then I might never see us again!

 


Why worry about TODAY when TOMORROW will be even worse.

Excellent news, thanks, business as usual then.

I didn't realise that cheers, good to know for next season (jk. Sorry, we'll be fine).
