Streaming

Apologises as I know there was a previous thread for this.

How do people watch Saints/football these days without Sky Sports or Now TV? I know we have streams, is there a better option to pay monthly and use a VPN? Or fire stick?

Fire stick is still the way forward for me. Depending how tech savvy you are it’s something that you can set up yourself or there are groups that charge a bit there is an element of customer service to it incase of issues.

I know someone who can help me set up. Might go for it.

I would, not just for the footy but films, tv shows, live PPVs. It’s saved me a fortune.

Fawanews with a vpn has all our games and is usually reliable.  Sometimes it has two streams for the match and if one goes down you can usually get it on the other one.  Today the first stream got the entire game without interruption.  Perhaps it would have been better if it hadn’t.  For the masochists among us, bookmark this:

Kodi with a VPN, had most Saints games last year, so will see how it goes again. Have considered IPTV which there are options for around £50-60 a year which claim to have all the football.

IPTV had all the games last season - I’ve renewed for 60 quid bargain considering all the other stuff.

Yep - get such good value from it and £70 a year is fuck all for two connections and had for years now. Although I stupidly still have full Sky Ports package which don’t really need now - the streams are all in FHD so forget.

i have a mate who refuses to pay and manages to get everything but I can’t be arsed as this is so straightforward.
Payment via Bitcoin might scare some off

Sky is going as soon as my agreement is up - sports and movies.

It's stopped working for me this season - anyone else having issues with it?

I always use a vpn.  And if the stream dies and you cannot get it back again go back to the home page and re-select the game.  I find it is rarely unavailable for more than a minute or two and usually not at all.
