TV coverage of All Whites games?

Live kick off is 6.45am NZ time.  So yeah, sounds like live.

WOOHOO late start on Thursday.

If it is going to be screened on sky, will the backbencher/4 kings be showing the game?

Jun 11, 2009 6:30am Italy vs New Zealand P2P Live  Friendly from this website,  set up for our timezone.   www.livesoccertv.com


confirmed it is in online Sky TV NZ    TV Guide now.
See the online link to Sky TV Guide here

I passed the word to TVNZ that it is a soccer match against the World Champions and that Sky has just decided to show it live. I don't think they would do a delay highlight of the game at such late notice but I hope that other people give them a call. If there is a good number of enquiries then they may look in to it more.

Call to 09 916 7000 to ask if they would show a game against the Soccer World Champions.

Yep late start for me too!
perfectly replaces the usual Thursday morning EPL Live fix..just Better cos its NZ!

fantastic news. Congrats NZ football for giving this gamewhat it deserves and for Sky for being flexible enough at such short notice. Good stuff, can't weait now all we need to know is where the hell do we watch this!!!

But of course.

hehe

Gave that number a ring. The woman that answered didn't know anything about anything and suggested i email.

Im still concerned that it isnt on the Sky Guide yet.. unlessl we get an announcement from NZF or Sky I wont be convinced until its actually shown

yeah it is, although it's a bit mis leading it says International football replay  and it's skysport 2 not 1 there is the 20/20 wc on skysport1

Fantastic, first chance to watch the All Whites since the New Caledonia games last year!

I meant the guide on the actual TV/Decoder..

But apparently the decoders update themselves at 2am every morning so I will wait til tomorrow!

I'm confused now, on the sky listings on the internet it shows it is being shown but the reply to my email of a few days ago (received 3.05pm today) states:


"At this stage Sky will only air from the beginning of the Confederations Cup, not including the warm up games unfortunately."

Think its great that SKY is showing this game. a little bit of pressure and there you go. heres hoping (big hope) that the all whites can put up a decent showing, like 1-0 or 2-1 or something like that. Hope over tomorrow people become aware that its on. 

Cheers

Then how come Sky emailed me to say it's not on?

And if you are still not convinced by that - check the bottom of

Alright then, I'll just say that the person who emailed me didn't kniw what they're on about 

Glad it's on...I'll be watching

I am impressed they managed to get the Italy game live for you guys in NZ.

Anyone in the UK know of anywhere that it might be on TV? some italian bar or something?

I am sure it will be on the internet streaming somewhere, but the quality is crap on my pc.

I am sure you guys will also be on here posting updates on the net for us if we have nothing else? please

will be watching all of them here at home. life couldn't be any sweeter, or could it? let's draw agains italy and get 3-4 points during the confed cup..that would make me happy :)

article from Fred today in Dom from Pretoria - but where is Maddafords? or is he just on a bender?

Any bar/cafe serving up brekky with the game? I'm in but I've gotta eat

Uber - You going to be open?

Assignments finished. Student night all nighter in town. Stay out to watch All whites game at a pub at 6.30. Anything be open?

Yeah I phoned TVNZ and got someone who really didn't give a toss. I asked are you going to show any highlights of the All Whites/Italy game and got the response no we don't have the rights to the 20/20. Doh! wokingfan2009-06-10 17:19:10

I really need to finish an assignment on anthropological advocacy before the game.  Going to be one long night.  The thought of us winning, though, will push me through.

Good luck with that.

Unless you want to hang out at Mermaids the whole night.

great to see Andrew Gourdie over in South Africa now for tv3. dunno whether they paid or NZF or FIFA but good result.

yah it caught me off guard when I saw that. didnt expect a live report from south africa haha that was like a cool 2mins of the news dedicated to the all whites

Could well be the South African Government who paid, they paid for a few of the Aussie jornos to go over for the Confeds Cup before the Germany world cu[

I gave Trax bar (railway station) a call and they are showing the All Whites v Italia game tomorrow morning. However, you will miss the first 15 mins (and a Smeltz hat-trick?) as they do not open until 7am. Hopefully, the boys get wired in and a sneak a historic result.

By the way, they do a decent brekky.
