check yo facts, because not legally, you can't.
Who the fuck cares about legally? This is 2016. Your tv laws are antiquated. Figure it out, mate.

Its also illegal to watch the UK netflix in the US. I dont see that stopping me. A simple chrome extension takes care of that one.

FYI, pretty much all Facup matches are shown somewhere, so finding a stream will be a piece of piss, no different from the Prem so that points completely invalid.
And coming from a septic you shouldn't really talk about antiquated laws.

Ps JCL is nothing to do with being foreign, there's plenty of English JCLs who jumped on the THFC bus when we got in the CL.

Its a bit of a grey area i thought as i know you arent allowed to be a host or developer but you can watch streams.
I have a kodi box bought off ebay which is not illegal to buy and watch our games often when not screened on TV, in any case the authorities cant put most of the population in jail.

Its not a grey area, watching it is breaking the law as well..

Dont think you would get jail time for watching, probably just a fine

Maybe they should allow the clubs to stream games through say a spurs streaming service or TV and we could pay a fee each month.
Then that should satisfy the authorities after all its going to be amount money anyway isnt it their loss of income etc.

Err actually you can.
Didn't some pub transmit games with a couple of minutes delay and won there case in court?

not heard of the delay, there was one that had a greek decoder.
they didnt have to pay fines but not sure if they had to stop showing the games with it

Avoid replays and the FA Cup won't be a problem intereferring with the league. I want us to go out to win matches regardless of those starting and what competition.

Nope it says the distributor was fined.
The European Court overturned the conviction and I can't see any info to suggest a new ruling.
Yep
The first paragraph ...
"A number of pubs across Tyneside and the rest of the UK have been ordered to pay thousands of pounds to the Premier League for unauthorised screening of live Premier League football matches."
This was in December.

And from a Premier League spokesman...
"We would advise all publicans to ignore the lies peddled by suppliers who make false claims about the legality of foreign broadcasts of our matches"

If it was legal why isn't every pub showing every match?
There's a simple answer to this.

Because it's a very grey area and some pubs still do show games.
The highest court has said it's not illegal to sell decoders.

It's also on ESPN for those in Australia.

As for Bolasie, it's actually good for us if he plays as he's absolutely dreadful and he's sure to squander just about every promising situation in which Palace find themselves. Although, if you're going to the game and sitting in the top tier behind the net make sure you bring a hard hat.

Inb4 Bolasie hat-trick.


Bolasie has been very good this season and it's no coincidence that palaces form has been terrible since he got injured

I didn't say it was, I said it's illegal to show the games....which it is.


I used to watch games in my local pub a few years back and the owner told me he spoke to the brewery and the local police station and they said it was ok to show the matches but he couldn't advertise the games or charge people to watch it
