We’re delighted to confirm our plans to Live Stream Saturday’s Emirates FA Cup Fourth Qualifying Round tie against Harborough Town.
Discussions have been taking place with various stakeholders to put in all the necessary arrangements this past week. We can now confirm a Live Stream will be available for £9.99 (inc VAT & fees) for fans that were not able to get a ticket for this huge game, with both sides looking to head into the First Round Proper.
This weekend lands outside of UEFA’s broadcasting blackout directive due to the international break in the Premier League and EFL Championship. Games kicking off at 3pm are therefore able to be broadcast. However, the Live Stream is limited to those who are based in the UK only. This is in line with FA Competition rules.
We have gained significant experience with Live Streaming our games in the last few seasons, including covering games away from home on a number of occassions. Despite some issues experienced, particularly during our play-off final match at Wythenshawe Town back in May, we have developed a strong package to deliver a solid service this weekend.
This has included the hire of satillite equipment to guarantee as strong a signal as possible, as well as large portable power outlets to overcome restrictions at the ground and aid in setup times for the team in place to deliver the stream. This should reduce the chance of issues in delivering a stream into your home.
The price of a household pay-per-view stream has been increased above our normal level to account for the additional infrastructure required to deliver the service. This has been set at £9.99 (inc VAT & fees).
Commercial premises wishing to show the game, should pay the requisite fee provided on the ticket page when purchasing.
We would like to thank the committee at Harborough Town for being accommodating to our request and working with us to provide this coverage, as well as the team of dedicated volunteers who have committed to the planning and setup throughout this week.
We hope the coverage brings the game to the many supporters who would have loved to have been there in person!
