EdinburghLivi Posted July 21, 2021 Share Posted July 21, 2021 (edited) No mention of a stream so I would assume not. Don't think it makes sense to offer a stream unless it sells out (which I doubt it will), you will get home fans who don't bother their arse to go to the game.

A poor show considering other clubs bend over backwards to make streaming available to all fans. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not an easy one for clubs that will not sell out. Should probably offer something for those self-isolating but if you can watch from home there's less chance you will actually attend the game. Can see why clubs wouldn't offer a stream. This disadvantages me as I'm London based. Was able to watch all games via stream last season but don't expect to have the same opportunities this season. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Specky Ginger Posted July 21, 2021 Share Posted July 21, 2021 Apparently it's the live commentary game on Radio Scotland tonight. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HIT THE CHANNEL Posted July 21, 2021 Share Posted July 21, 2021 Do livi have a stream for every game for fans outside the UK? In case I decide to hope to Europe at 7:44pm… 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beaten at home by Cowdenbeath, then a late comeback win away to Livingston, and tonight a loss to Highland League Brechin. Not boring at least. Meantime Kelty?

EdinburghLivi Posted July 21, 2021 Share Posted July 21, 2021 This is absolutely not a reason to stream games. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Specky Ginger Posted July 21, 2021 Share Posted July 21, 2021 I'd have thought given that the revenue from tickets and streams is split between both clubs, that Rovers would have had some say in whether there's a live stream or not. My son and I are self isolating in different houses, so there's two potential streams straight away. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can disagree if you want, you can make the argument that it's not economically viable and that it will potentially detract from physical attendance (it may do). But the fact remains that lots of regular fans are either having to isolate for one reason or another or are still shielding or are simply not comfortable coming out into big crowds yet, perhaps for reasons of close relatives who are vulnerable. That's an extremely good argument that clubs should be providing a service to fans by streaming. 13 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Be interesting to see if it turns into a Clyde type of nothingness ( which he struggles to mention these days) or if Alloa are prepared to splash out like Kelty did. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raith Against The Machine Posted July 21, 2021 Share Posted July 21, 2021 Given that tickets were only ten or eleven quid, I don't see that there's any sense at all in not offering a stream. Just make it the same price. People paid more than that for streams on multiple occasions last season, and it means if someone chooses not to attend and stay at home to stream it instead, you're not losing any revenue. Real "wee club" vibes from Livingston here. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Add on top of that the fact we've currently got two strains on the go that are spreading incredibly easily, it's completely reasonable some people won't want to get back into stadiums yet. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We do, usually. Our international sub has been decent, £5 per month got you every game including cups. Although it seems as though it hasn't been set up for the cup this season 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Presumably they're not offering a stream tonight because the media team are still doing laps of their Olympic sized pool filled with pound coins. Twenty pounds!? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CALDERON Posted July 21, 2021 Share Posted July 21, 2021 Stupidly presumed there would be streaming tonight, so didn't really bother about going to the game. FFS. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
