    I was going to borrow from the lawnmower, then remembered it's electric.
    Bout time they invented hybrid lawnmowers.

    I understood the commemt to mean strange having a season ticket but then choosing to watch on red button
    Obviously some people haven't got the choice if they've Covid or work commitments.

    Us long distance fans have every excuse not to attend midweek games in normal circumstances, but especially now with current difficulties preventing it. My season ticket was pretty cheap so I don't mind missing a few games. It's nice to know my membership subs are keeping the club afloat, whether I am there or not :)

    So will be available on stream channels like Livenet tv and not just red button.
    Just saying if like me you are a bit short on car fuel for two home games and have a long round trip.

    Sky sports and free don’t belong in the same sentence

    They do if you have one of those dodgy Firesticks.
    Not me though, I'll be at the game for my sins.

    It’s not part of my package with Virgin for some reason.

    Still haven't decide if I'm going or not. If this is on a proper channel, with replays ect then I may be tempted watch at home. I get up for work at 5am and it's a lot quicker to turn the tv off and go to bed after the game than it is to get home from Oakwell.

    I’ve tried that and yes, you an access lots of channels, including Sky Sports. It was impossible to watch anything though with constant buffering

    I recently upgraded my Virgin package to include all the Sports channels although i really only wanted football and cricket. At first I had no HD channels so a quick chat on their online help sorted that out for £7 extra. Arena is Channel 508 on my box

    It is definitely on a proper, recordable channel. Ch 508 on my Virgin box

    Yes - I will be officially there as I have a paid for and reserved seat the fact I am not going to be in it but sitting on my sofa with a beer doesnt change the fact the club has sold the ticket for the game

    I enquired once before when we were on Sky Arena as to why it wasn’t in my package. Got told it’s because I’m on a basic package and the additional cost was a fair bit. Already paying £73 a month and I don’t really get my money’s worth now. No way I’m paying any more on principle.
