Aljazeera are the Arabic channel showing live Premier league games. It is a channel that SKY viewers can subscribe to for a very cheap price and they show 3:00pm Saturday games live.

Much more Premier League games shown on there than SKY Sports plus you get the added benefit of not having to put up with Andy Gray

I've got Al Jazeera on my Sky package, but I haven't specially subscribed to it. It just happens to be there..... Channel 799. Is that what you are referring to? I didn't realise they show EPL games!

Doesn't look like it on SKY's listings on their site

Don't forget that MOTD is on tonight too.

Correctamundo Cunningham. It is a Channel that needs subscribing to unlike the basic Aljazeera channel.

I've decided I'm gonna watch Charlton vs United, then flick over to Football First for the main event.

It's really quite immense to be spoilt for choice like this... I hope we never leave the Prem!

As long as you realise that you will know the score by the time FF starts by watching the live game.

That's of course assuming you wanted to avoid the result.

Dammit, dammit, dammit, dammit, dammit...

Really, damn. SB1871 must have been given duff info then. Might still pop down for a pint on the off chance.

scutterbucket · by **scutterbucket** » 23 Aug 2006 18:10

Has anyone got a definate confirmation on where they will be showing the game?

I was gonna say --can't imagine plain ol' Al-Jazeera pre-empting live coverage of a "Death to Western Civilization" street rally for something so trifling and decadent as English Premier League football...

I had thought that I was the only individual on the planet --aside of course from "The Fonz"-- who employed that phrase.

I'm feeling significantly better for the news.

More importantly RC, can you confirm or deny whether or not the Rose and Thistle is showing the game tonight on an hours delay, Kick Off 8:45?

RoyalChicagoFC · by **RoyalChicagoFC** » 23 Aug 2006 18:21

My sources inside the R&T aren't returning my calls, for some reason.

Rotza ruck anyway, gang --ain't on here, either.

Gav · by **Gav** » 23 Aug 2006 18:34

Just phoned em...

Apparently they ARE showing it, after the Charlton/Utd game, with kick off around 9:30 due to delays.

That writes off getting the train then (last one 11:12), and as I'm wounded, I can't drive.

Football First it is then.

Apparently it was on South Korean TV; Seol's assist at http://soccer1.ktdom.com/bbs/zboard.php ... sc&no=6141
