I know it's the thing to knock the Radio Tees commentary, but for those who do have a choice are you going with Sky or the Boro stream today?
I think I will go with the stream for the positivity towards my team. Although Sky tend to suck up to the "big" team which I suppose is us today.
 
Boro stream I reckon; Sky will be better than red button but you'll likely have to listen to Don Goodman or Andy Hinchcliffe who are utterly clueless.
 
Looking at the TV schedules also on ESPN + 02, DAZN and SuperSport Variety 2 for people who can access these channels.

Sky, as there's no delay and no risk of me finding out about goals before they go in.

I’ve never had that - a few minor screen freezes. How do you find out about the goals before they go in are you using the radio commentary or something?

I'm a bit addicted to my phone and I'm discussing the match as it happens with people.

Found out Brentford had scored a full minute before it showed the goal last week, though I think that was partly down to the FA Player issues.
Usually not so much of a problem with the proper Boro stream, but better safe than sorry.

Obviously the easy solution is to just stay off my phone, hahah.

Because that stupid bbc tees commentator told us during the wycombe game boro had scored a third goal before he even commentated on it (stream he was commentating from in a studio was a minute behind real time)

The alerts from bbc sport app on my phone always come up a good few seconds before the boro stream, sometimes as much as 20 secs on the odd occasion. I have to avoid looking as its a bit annoying, made worse because they come up on my watch too and sometimes I just look at it instinctively

Yes that’s what I do I don’t look at anything so even if there’s issues I find out from the tv, I do sometimes forget though and pick up my phone for a browse and then panic when I see boro headlines and quickly put it back down again!!

Definitely a big delay with the Boro stream (well Ifollow). I always keep refreshing twitter whilst watching added time once 90mins is up😂

I'm always happy to see the result before it ends on TV.
 
Sky, on the big tv and in UHD. I’ve got used to ignoring my phone notifications now but still an indicator something has happened
 
That's part of the reason I love an early kick off.
Our result is out of the way and I can check the scores at 3pm onwards without risking spoilers.
 
I'm watching the boro stream and the fella commentating next to ours needs to pipe down! Noisy get 😡
