You get it all for free you say - so you are in fact a petty criminal - like your mates Bobby Charlton - Platini and Blatter?


You don't know how it works you say, what do you actually do to access it? Is it a URL? a program? an app?

Thanks for proving the Truth of my statement above. :lol:

I simply use the the control my mate gave me, I turn it to 'On/Override TV', switch it to 'Menu', select 'Match Listing' and press 'Play', simple really.
My computer automatically downloads and saves the programs as they are delivered, as I said I don't know much about the machinations of it all as my mate set it all up for me.
All I need to know is that it works - makes it more plausible that way in case anything goes wrong. :wink:

Is this your TV or Computer? And you also said he streams them to you, he clearly doesn't, you have another device.

Good job I am helping you here - you don't have a scooby.

According to rankings, Russia are the worst team in the world cup. That wouldn't be helped by the fact they have only been playing friendlies for 2 years though.

Take the piss out of me all you like but I am getting it all free and will be able to record any matches that interest me, again thanks to my mate.

Happy World Cup 2018 everyone. :D :D :D :D
