Champions League Final: Juventus V Real Madrid, in Cardiff

[Maggot]

I am looking forward to this, but it appears to not be on any of the free channels. I thought the final was always free to watch.

 

[skyscraper101]

I think it's free on BT Sport. Part of the license obligation to carry it free-to-air or something.

[Maggot]

Thanks. I need to retune my TV, and I don't know how to.

It's one big pain in the fucking arse. Can't wait for the fuckers to be out of town

What Skyscraper says only works if you have HD TV. Otherwise, you're fucked.

If you do have HD TV and want to add 115, its as simple as press Menu on your remote, then set up, then oh bollocks, just look at this page

PS I don't have HD and am therefore fucked off about this.

EDIT Apparently I can watch it on YouTube here BT Sport

Thanks. I'm pretty sure you can watch HD channels without an HD telly.

Not this one. Believe me, I just retuned my TV for nothing.

 

[Maggot]

I just retuned my TV and can see it fine.

 

[Steel Icarus]

So, about the match

 

[planetgeli]

^ Apologies SI but just one more,

I just retuned my TV and can see it fine.

BT Showcase HD has been added to Freeview channel 115. However coverage is limited to around 3/4 of the UK:

That'll teach me to live in the 1/4 of nowhere.

 

[Steel Icarus]

I want Juve to win.

 

[skyscraper101]

Real Madrid FTW

 

[Maggot]

I want Juve to win.

So do I. Just realised, I'm going to a gig that night. Will try and record it and watch when I get home.

 

[Virtual Blue]

tenner on - win or lose, that Ronaldo will cry like a broken hearted princess.

fwiw they're also broadcasting it in VR and giving away VR headsets in EE shops, I just went in and asked.
BT Sport to broadcast UEFA Champions League final in 360° VR

 

[Badgers]

I want Juve to win.

This ^ Although obviously I want the sport of football to be the winner tonight

Ideal result would be 5-5 at the end of extra time with multiple red cards. Then Juve win on penalties 13-12 or something. Plus Ronaldo to miss the clincher and cry.

I'm working.
I've exactly zero chance of members of the public not spoilering the result for me before I can watch it.

Hey yea. I hope brexit means we don't have to get involved in all this european sporting nonsense

 

[DexterTCN]

It's also on youtube. normal/4k/vr choices

Why? Do you live in Turin?

 

[dessiato]

Years ago I taught English to Juve players, now I live in Spain. I'm not sure who to support, so I'll watch the match and drink beer.

Anyone we would have heard of?

Surely the personal connection to one club beats living in the same country as another club.

Do many non Madrilenos support Real?

Don't think so, don't really remember their named.

I lived in Porto and follow Porto. Sempre Superdragõa

London.
I dealt with tons of Italian and Spanish last night.

I expect to see many more tonight in various states of celebration/ commiseration.

Ones who either work here or decided to watch it in a bar here because Cardiff accommodation was unaffordable (apparently my fellow Cardiffians have been seriously hiking prices).

The Black Eyed Peas pre-game performance is dreadful.

Up to this point I've had it on mute, Just looked up - what the merry hell?!

Footy journalists I follow on Twitter are not impressed
