game on/off

Blackpool have got a big decision to make. Do they want to get 3150 Boro fans out of the pubs at 7.30 or not?
My guess is that they will have run out of beer by then anyway!

Every clubs test daily basis. Quit your moaning.

Also Block21 mentioned Sam Gowland who claimed that testing at 3pm (is a boro fan.) You guys should ignore him.

We did our final tests yesterday (according to Wilder). So not sure why Blackpool need a 1500 one on match day.

The player who is suspended for two games should be included in the numbers towards the 13 required, but not allowed to play
We shouldn't be penalised because he has a record of foul play. He is available to play, but banned. That's their problem, not ours.

What a load of cry baby nonsense.

Can't think of another away game where we won promotion on the last day.
Oxford success
Leicester failure but eventual success were both at home

Tranmere in 95 was close. Bolton failing to beat Stoke had confirmed it though
Also chelsea away was the real last away game decider in 88

I think watching/buying IPTV is a grey area legally. they tend to go for the providers of the service because the cost of going for individual users is monumental compared to what they would recover.


The law on illegal IPTV in the United Kingdom​

The UK introduced the Digital Economy Act in 2017, which created tougher punishments for anyone found guilty of copyright infringement. Illegal IPTV users and service providers can face prison sentences of up to 10 years as a result.

While nobody has yet been prosecuted just for using illegal IPTVs (the legislation has mainly been used to target the people operating these services) police have issued mass warnings to suspected illegal IPTV users in some instances, threatening legal action if they continued using them.

As far I was aware is not illegal to watch IPTV and the police aren't there to recover lost revenue of private commercial concerns such as Sky/BT etc.

These broadcasters can only use civil law to prosecute the commercial establishments showing "illicit" streams.

It shouldn't be the job of our already overworked and depleted police forces.

Genuine question: Do the police raid pubs and clubs and switch these streams off during matches?

I doubt the police 'raid' a pub due to an illegal steam. Well I hope not.... You can't even get them to come out for a break in😂

That said pubs do get hammered by Sky if they get found to be showing it on a domestic contract (no pint glass in corner). I imagine they have sky 'spies' walking around pubs.
 
Fans from Teesside will be all be travelling now and be already in Blackpool. If Blackpool were calling it off surely it would have been by 3pm. They have had 6 hours to test today. I know Hull called their game off 2 hours before on Boxing Day, but it was 1pm.

FACT (federation against copyright theft) is currently working with Internet service providers to figure out how users could be prosecuted. Clearly proving someone watched an illegal stream is quite hard to do. The burden of proof is high compared to the return. However in the future, I'd expect Sky, Netflix, Amazon, BT, Spotify, Youtube etc to take action against users whose details are discovered when some of the pirates are busted.

Copyright theft was codified in 1988, when it became a criminal offence as well as a civil offence.
