Then I stand corrected on Mid-March... must have gotten confused with what I read in forums and the info on the website.

However no mention of Spanish Football concerns me as does late Spring as a launch? That could read to me Late May/early June and the football season is over and I've been waiting for this since summer to launch when press release first came out.

Re: sky sports red button
 

Before Easter you should have red button ;)

the late spring is for phase 2 of the launch when more content is added to it. :)

Re: sky sports red button
 

Thanks for that so then I should take it that Spanish Football is planned for Red button either this season or in a later phase or not?

Re: sky sports red button
 

Not sure on Spanish football TBH, should know more once launched.

Re: sky sports red button
 

Mmm... if the online tests that they have done this season showing Live La Liga via their website doesnt bode well... fingers crossed thats not the case.

The following is from an Virgin Media viewer who PM me that they have been given an launch date for the Sky Sports Red Button launch.

Re: sky sports red button
 

what will we get by the red button will we get all the football matches they put on through red button and all matches on match choice?

Re: sky sports red button
 

l suspect we will get a very watered down version of the red button knowing Virgin.

Well first we were told january then march and then before easter and now after easter and probably a watered down version to boot.

as I have never seen the Sky Sports Red button in action I have NO idea what to expect. My daughter has Sky but sports are banned on her TV :redcard:

Re: sky sports red button
 

During a live English Premier League match there are options on commentary, stats and the likes. For me this option isn't that compelling but....

On Saturdays (if there has been a EPL round of games) at 10.15 a mosaic is available and you can watch the full 90 minutes of all the days games. You also get this sometimes if there was a round of midweek games too.

Similarly during the group stages of the UCL a mosaic is available but that is to choose a live games which otherwise are not all available on the main channels.

This weekend red button was available for Golf, three tournaments were available to watch live which again were not all available on the main channels.

There are loads more options but that is just a taste of what is available.

It will be a great addition, well worth the wait and it will add real value to a sports subscription.

Re: sky sports red button
 

Lets just hope and pray we get it soon.

Re: sky sports red button
 

thanks for the reply

Re: sky sports red button
 

I would go along with all that.

Re: sky sports red button
 

One thing to add on the CL games - goal alert.

When a goal goes in (if you are watching one of the red button feeds) in a game other than the one you are watching, a flash appears at the bottom and you can switch to see a replay of the goal.

Re: sky sports red button
 

I've been away - any news on the sky sports red button?
