Red button not working in Luton

Do you mean now, or at 7:30? It won't work now because the event has finished.

Bristol should be fixed for future events, by the way.

Sorry come to the wrong conclusion by reading these posts, not 7:30 but now. Silly question but how does the red button work on SKY sports? Does it only appear on certain live broadcasts or football first? Does it work on the two HD channels?

What I got was a little red button icon at the bottom right of the screen with the word cricket next to it. It was available on both SKY Sports 2 and SKY Sports 2 HD. For me the red button facility took ages to work.

Think match choice for champions league is the one most people would want.

There are not many times i get gobsmacked but yesterday was one of those when i saw the Red Button on sky sports,and for me at least when i pressed it to continue watching the cricket it worked pretty quickly,and i was able to watch what i consider in the past all virgin media customers should have had after shelling out massive amounts for sky sports every month.:):):):):beer::beer::beer:

Hi,

I'm new to the forum and I just wanted to ask if the Sky Sports Red Button will work for the Spanish football tommorow? the games that start early are normally on the Red Button

Anyone in the know can confirm or deny if Virgin Media customers will be able to watch it on the Red Button tommorow?

Take care.

No idea but we have known for a while when it would be starting and expected an announcement to be made before it went live.

That's a good point. What is next on the red button? Anybody know? Is there a list?

I am sure Virgin have sent me all the information I need, I am just not at home to check at the moment!

People seem to think the Red button is active on all programs but its not.

You need to look at the link above and select the programe type then the LIVE ON SKY tab. Then look for any programe with a * next to it for info as to the red button usage.
