no, although there is a stream (ask Tans)

Its an early KO because England are playing at 5.

We had this conversation last Wednesday. Wobbly Bob helpfully pointed out it's so that people can go to Town game and then get to see England game.

Others pointed out a preference for a trip to the dentists, over either. (I made that bit up)

For various reasons it's our first game of the season.  Feeling bullish after our heroic two match unbeaten run.

If it was for the England game wouldn't all games in England be kicking off early?

I think other clubs have been very accomodating keeping their Kick Offs at 3pm in oder to help their fans avoid the ignominy of watching England Girl Giggle

I won't get to see it anyway, all I've got the pleasure of is getting a train at 8 in the pissing morning.

A stream existing =/= being on TV.

Couldn't give a fuck about England tbh but even if the game kicked off at 3 it would still be finished before 5. Load of shit.

But not on English satellite tv. Similar I think to when we played Huddersfield at home in the FA Cup first round some years ago. Was shown on foreign tv which allows users to stream the games.

Being broadcast over Europe, I think that may be why.

Europe will either be suitably impressed or bored shitless.
Hope it's the former. #globalbrand

Is that a 'need to sign up' streaming website?..

I wonder if it'll work on my ChromeBook...  Hmmm
