As the distinguished band of carefully selected friends will know I've had a bit of a problem with a more than social consumption of Ethanol. ie being an Alkie.
Currently on the waggon, I did not relish the thought of having to go to the a local pub in order to watch the Arsenal-ManU game on Sky-sports. I don't have Sky, prefering instead to get broadband.
There are a number of reasons for not wanting to go to the pub and these are:
I'm currently bereft of funds.
Coke costs £1.85 for a large glassfull which I get through in 45 minutes,
Crisps are 60p a bag,
There's nothing worse than being surrounded by half pissed, loud football fanatics when you yourself are stone cold sober.
And so, with perfect timing, one of my blogging buddies posted a blog detailing where you could watch loads of sports and other gubbins FOR FREE.
Thats my kind of price and yesterday I gave the site a bit of a looksee. Got to say the quality that I'm getting isn't great by any means, probably similar to non-digital in a poor signal areab but I'm spoilt by HD, up-scaling and a 1080p screen. However bearing in mind the circuitry the signal will have gone through before it even gets to go through my wireless broadband, it aint too bad.
The main things are
1) It is watchable.
2) It is free, costs nada, fuck all.
If you want to give it a go, here's the site:
