UPDATED: Birmingham v Reading is also live online for UK-based listeners.

Hi all,

Because the Burnley game is in the FA Cup rather than the league it's covered by a different agreement - one that means we can broadcast the game online, if you live in the UK.

So if you're somewhere in Blighty go to http://www.bbc.co.uk/berkshire to listen to the whole game live.

Alas, if you're living abroad I'm afraid we still can't offer the game live online. One day... one day...

And if you're outside Blighty, just VPN through a UK ISP.

You aint seen me, right.

Does this mean that foreign broadcasting corporations may be broadcasting the game online for people who live in their countries only?

Ollie · by **Ollie** » 04 Jan 2007 10:54

Possibly - I don't know what the deal is for other countries. Would be worth checking though.

Maybe you guys could make some money by allowing other countries who buy the broadcasting rights to broadcast the BBC Berks commentry? (Ireland for example).

You can then put the cash towards next seasons bid for premiership commentary.

Can't you just forget to flip that switch that disables non uk listeners! don't ask, don't tell.

What's on now then instead of the game? Can't you have a live web cam in the bit where you sit?

Obviously the game was called off due to the curse of BBCRB's live streaming

Is the same going to apply to the Birmingham game this weekend??
