jambovambo Posted April 18, 2012 Share Posted April 18, 2012 Wondering if I should suggest this ... but ... a special edition of JKB BarAdvisor with actual bars actually signed up and arranged, and guaranteed to be showing the Final ? It'll be on BBC, for sure, so UK bars shouldn't be a problem. Nice to chaff your local, English, publican to get him/her to make a wee day of it. Equally, if there was a way to highlight bars on the main map ... I'll look into it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jambovambo Posted April 18, 2012 Author Share Posted April 18, 2012 Brilliant. I've set a flag, to show what can be done. E.g. the bars with wee blue flags are "showing the Final" (illustrative purposes only, for now) Is this a good idea ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Valar Morghulis Posted April 18, 2012 Share Posted April 18, 2012 Working on Fado Irish Pub (273 Buckhead Avenue Northeast Atlanta, GA 30305). They reckon they'll have it, but it's yet to show up on any tv schedule over here. Have the other pubs over here that have confirmed they're showing it said whether it's via an internet stream or tv channel? I'm doubting it will be on Fox Soccer, because their deal is for SPL games only. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don Draper Posted April 19, 2012 Share Posted April 19, 2012 I emailed the SFA to ask if anyone has TV rights here, but no response yet. I'm a bit confused about the SC rights in the USA. According to Wikip, it's Premium Sports that have them, and that's confirmed from their website: http://www.premiumsports.tv/soccer.html But I dunno if that's a pay-per-game thing, or if a pub would have to be a full subscriber. S'all a bit clear-as-mud, really. They've got a pub search function on their site, if people want to look for their part of the States: http://www.premiumsports.tv/venues.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Goldstone Wonder Posted April 19, 2012 Share Posted April 19, 2012 English season has finished I'm afraid there will be a direct clash with the English Championship Play-offs which are taking place at Wembley at 3pm the same day (ie exactly the same time). So, if, for instance , West Ham are in the final, you might find there is a clash. Teams likely to be in the play-offs are West Ham, Birmingham, Cardiff and Blackpool.

lulujambo Posted April 21, 2012 Share Posted April 21, 2012 If it's not on Soccer Plus then I think that's the end. Can't see any of the Spanish channels even showing it. Looks like it'll be back to watching some dodgy internet link with popups as usual. Or do what I did in 2006......get someone in Scotland to point their webcam at the tv back home and watch it over the webcam.

I know it's on BBC1 Scotland and Sky - don't know which Sky Sports channel though - in the UK, but have no idea which channel to find it on in France.

Lt Chard VC Posted April 23, 2012 Share Posted April 23, 2012 Will be at Haggerston Castle and they don't have a sports bar any more, its now a sort of restaurant with big TV's set up and although they show football the atmosphere isnt the same. I would think they would show the Championship play off rather than our Final. I recall a few years ago we had to wait until an Arsenal game finished before we were able to watch 2nd half of Falkirk v Hearts. Anyone know any pubs in Berwick area that might show our game?
