Happy with any football on telly. as long as nix games are live, will be happy with highlights of the rest. Used to watch all the games, then came new job, new baby boy, increased nagging from partner about staying up late, so had to cut back to keep sanity in the family.
Ah yes... thank goodness for grown-up kids mate. My wife
tends to be a bit like that too...at least they still care enough to say something though, eh??
Sky figures go completely off what channel you are watching - that's how they keep track of viewer numbers. If you go out, make sure the decoder is on the correct channel. They don't know if your tv is on or off.
Better still, 'book' the games so the channel switches at game time. That way they see figures change.
Hey - even if you don't watch the games, make sure your decoder is set to the channel showing them.
i knew 'hardnews' was talking sh*t.
I'm not entirely convinced that a 3:00 AM delayed coverage of a match is the way to grow the following of the league or assist it. Seems to me a way of justifying a 'no one watches it' campaign for the future.
Exactly the same thing happens to the Warriors in Aussie. Almost every Warriors game is on at 3 am delayed or not even played at all
But I agree with you. This is just their way of slowly cutting it down until it disappears imo.

its not hard to get fox and sbs in NZ, just illegal.
basically you just need a bloody big dish pointed at the optus satellite and a chipped custom satellite decoder.
sounds easy as pie.
Ohh hell I threw a chipped custom satellite decoder out just the other day darn it, bloody murphy and his law was right

Damn that is a stupid thing to say
In a way yes if people just see them scoring freekicks and goals and the "nice" highlights they might be incline to watch the nix more just like the way people that don't stay up for EPL games just see the highlights and all of a sudden have an EPL team.

Good news on the coverage.
beaten by the cat?
I think it's a Bevan joke, but I don't quite get it...
My parents have got the international dish - but im pretty sure it only picks up European channels (mum's dutch). Its just a one off payment though, so if you could get Auz channels then would be oh so cheap.
Dont think itd work though because I think they would be the free to air channels. The footy is on FOX over there right?

Top effort LF1 and Sky to I guess they could've easily dumped the lot so thanks, I'm one who doesn't get bored watching the other teams in the league,Ii'll just need to convince "the other half" that we should get MYsky I'll try using the old "you could record all of the Hills and sex in the city or Whatever other crap it is you need to watch three repeats of "

True......but talking during the football
Yes I know, I know...
Lol - my partner will constantly look at what else is on, using the menus on sky to make it blatantly obvious what she wants haha. I don't often give in

That's the better way of doing it. Sky's computers will note that you were not just watching any old programme, but tuned in especially to watch an A-League game. A much stronger statement of interest.
If all Nix fans did that this year, and got their friends to do the same, Sky's "viewing figures" for A-League games would shoot up.
That would get their attention!
i knew 'hardnews' was talking sh*t.
That seems awfully brave to slag the person who can ban you... and where exactly was I wrong ?
As far as I'm concerened non-live coverage of most A-League matches is a cut in the coverage. They have removed the match introduction show and as yet we have no idea if the commentators team has been changed.

How hard would it be to get a satelite that broadcasts Aus tv? I knwo people who have done it with China/Japan Tv.
removed the match intro show? it was always pretty short anyway.... Unfortunately the way the games were aired last season is like they couldn't give a toss anyway - no prematch rant, no post game analysis, straight to the adverts as soon as they'd shown four or five highlights.
Definitely good news that they are showing every game, but to be honest I was hoping for something more in keeping with BBC-type coverage, especially considering for the first time in nz professional football history we actually HAVE A DECENT TEAM
(he says, thinking about match of the day')

Have to say. i did expect it to be much worse.
I'm pretty happy with the coverage. only would like the pre game show to be back. gives much more atmosphere than just cutting to at kickoff.
Ah well.

Pretty poor really - I don't like watching delayed coverage of games, it just isn't the same. The temptation to check whether you are about to sit through a 90 minute 0-0 piece of crap is too tempting IMO.
Better after November I guess.
sounds easy as pie.
i was just havin a laugh.

where did you get THAT from ?
I think they're doing a special on that stuff this week at Dick Smith.
Where Everyone Gets A Bargain.
Or is it Liquor King? Queen? Jack?

Decent news in general but I agree with your point Dave. I struggle to understand how with 3 sports channels you can not find a way to show a match live, and if you've paid for it, why not make every effort to show it live?
hmm
I get it- Whiskies cat food?
Am i right...
beaten by the cat?
Oh I get it. P___ W____. Tis a bit harsh I thought...
Good news on the coverage.
extra motivation to watch non Phoenix A-League games is to see the other kiwis playing....Smeltz, Moss, Brockie....and the scots kiwi mckinchley???
smeltz for golden boot....moss for best A-league keeper

Might get around to subscribing now...

I am going to watch as many games as the Missus will let me on the telly... and record the others to watch later :)

boom, chish

So for the first half of the season you only get two live games per round? If I had Sky I would be very pissed off with that. I doubt Sky viewers will even get the delayed game in full either; probably they'll be truncated to fit into precise 90 minute time slots as the replays are here on Fox. If so then this amounts to a reduction of coverage anyway.
StopOut2009-07-28 23:31:08
And even if it isn't it's still unacceptable in my book. What's to stop Sky reducing live matches for the entirety of next season, based on the reasoning that no one said boo last time round and in fact some people actually thanked them?
we were going to get sky last night but then we didn't.
True stroy.

Could be. Maybe everyone's got them on special.
But if the satellite decoders are chipped, they might be seconds.
