09/08/2022 - Carabao Cup: OUFC v Swansea

[oufc1991]

What channel is that on?

I'm guess either sky sports news or if it's that match tonight then sky sports football or sky sports main event

I agree that the Sports Sky show will be on at least one of the Sky Sports channels

 

[BeechRoadBokelberg]

That feels like the most pointless use of that fence only two blocks are open in North stand and I doubt Swansea will bring many fans

KR did suggest a couple of surprises, so knowing him maybe Wolf and Nightshade are lined up to climb the wall and then kick footballs into biffa bins at halftime

 

[TeamOX]

Feel the suprise will involve Golding- either at right back or switching to back 5 and something we don't necessarily expect with wingbacks.

 

[mooro]

One or more of:
Smyth at centre back,
Seddon in midfield/wing
Jones or Murphy in CM
Stevens in CM
Mous as DM

 

[OUFCGav]

Sky base their evening shows on LC nights around cutting to the goals as they happen
Annoying if it's your own team but a pretty good watch otherwise

Odd that it precludes international viewing though.

It says "Access to the match live on iFollow will be available here from 1 hour before kick-off". The bastards deliberately try to mislead us into thinking "access" means video.

 

[wolvercoteyellow]

The IFollow preview page says: "The Carabao Cup is not available to stream in the UK but you can hear the whole game in iFollow in the UK and see it overseas, with interviews with all the key men after the game".

Then on the "iFollow explained" page it says: "Please note, Carabao Cup matches are not eligible for streaming internationally."

WTF?
Can anyone explain this please?

One of life's little mysteries. We wil find out tonight.

All I know is that the EFL couldn't organise a pissup in a brewery.

Wolf and Nightshade? Typical lack of ambition by the club, we should be pushing out the boat and getting Jet.

 

[Bath Yellow]

Anyone know if the football special buses are running tonight ?

But then look at the "click here" for a guide....

Yeah, it doesn't make a ton of sense.

Here in the US, ESPN have the rights to the Carabao Cup and stream a couple of games via their online ESPN+ platform.

But today they're showing only Bradford vs. Hull & Charlton vs. QPR.
As far as I can tell, there's absolute noone broadcasting or streaming our game, so I don't see any reason why they couldn't put it on iFollow.......other than presumably they signed a contract with ESPN that says they wouldn't.

Another one for @OUSP Secretary to ask about. Surprised there’s not more backlash widespread across the EFL clubs about this.

Would love to watch tonight’s game for £10 as can’t justify the 2 hour drive + tickets etc. That’s a £100 night out for a league cup first round game.

No they aren't. Only league games.

I did. The 2nd quote is from the "guide"!!

I connected to a VPN and logged into my Dutch account . Ifollow chat said they're not streaming the game tonight in Holland. She seemed to know what she was on about so I guess it'll be the radio for me.

 

[Essexyellows]

My dodgy stream only has Bradford v Hull and Charlton v QPR .......

I think that's the only two live streams sky are showing. I don't think there's any chance of seeing the game online tonight. Might be wrong though

Last season I had a long, futile attempt to find a stream for the Carabao Cup games to no avail. This season will be the same, so I'm going to relax and stick on RadOx instead.

3-2 win. We'll go 1 down, but then equalise before the break. 2 goals in the opening 15 minutes of the second half from star man Kemar Roofe Tyler Goodrham will put us 3-1 up, but Swansea will pull one back fairly quickly after to set up a nervy last 25 minutes.
