I really hope these people are able to deliver- this year was poor, to say the least, a real lack of quality content we hardly ever scored, especially after that boggle fella left

I'd like to see the highlights feature John Moore's commentary again as well. I know those full re-runs feature him but I thought him on the highlights was excellent.

The highlights are provided to the club by ITN I understand as they do to all the clubs in the EFL.

I wonder how much of an uplift there will be for the new service. I've felt Mariners Player has been poor value this year, as most of the highlights, interviews etc have been readily available on youtube anyway.

Does this means theselected games they are going to stream " live" will only be available to people overseas?

Got to agree - Mariners Player has been poor this season.

Other than the match highlights, which you can always find elsewhere, we're given pre and post-match press conferences (which, again, can be found elsewhere). It's just the Radio Humberside interview recorded on camera, and the Telegraph often take their stories from the same interview.

We used to get a bit of behind-the-scenes content, and interviews with players that weren't covered by the local paper and radio. Even interviews with fans.

At the moment I'm struggling to find enough reasons to sign back up when it changes over.

So it sounds like it will cost more. So what do we get for the extra if you live in this country?


If the football is bad you can always watch the gulls.

I've enjoyed watching the full games when they have put them on (when we win). It will be interesting to see if they are on Youtube next season?

Suppose it depends how much improvement they make, also would like them to make it easier to unsubscribe from it don't like that there is no unsubscribe button so you need to email them and hope that they eventually unsubscribe you.

No doubt about it, despite promising so much the Mariners Player is excrement.  Utterly crap value for money.  

Interviews aren't exclusive, in fact most stuff goes on the free player as exclusive before it goes on the paid version, if it ever gets there.  As RichMariner says the majority of stuff on there is shared content that Humberside put up on the BBC Media Player or is printed in the Telegraph.  

The extended highlights are ok but considering they're ten minutes, at least 3 minutes of that is the players coming out and lining up.  Can't say I've bothered with the full game repeats but I can see the appeal myself.  That's perhaps more because there hasn't been a game I've been desperate to watch again this season than anything.  

The commentary should be the clincher for a lot of people.  Even though I'm not an exile it's a nice option to not have to be sat near a DAB radio for away games (for those that aren't aware you can't get commentary of games on apps such as Tune In).   However, the quality is shocking.  Every time I've tried to use it the feed has cut out at least once during the game and often reverts to the local BBC feed, BBC Devon or wherever it is.  The club, who are happy to charge the fee for the paid service and promote the exclusive online commentary, will quickly deflect any association with this and blame the BBC.  

Live streaming of games could, I stress the word could be a game changer depending on how it's set up.  If it's just for the Football League Trophy it'll sell jaff all.

EFL press release says this will cost £110 per season. All games will be broadcast live but only to 'global supporters'

I'm no technical wizard but if there is going to be a live stream of a Town game on the net somewhere, you can 100%  guarantee you'll be able to access it on your laptop/Kodi

So any game I can't get to because of work/family commitments I be able to watch, can't wait for next season!



Are we any closer to getting promoted since Hurst has been here? No

Has he been given time to achieve promotion by the chairman and fans? Yes

Hurst out

All games will be shown according to the EFL unless they are chosen for individual live overseas broadcast.

I'm not a computer expert,but if you use a V.P.N. ( Google it !) Will you be able to watch the live games in this country?
I understand that a V.P.N. gets round so called geo-blocking.

It works on most things, so I imagine it'll get around this too. They only take like a minute to download too.

That should work in theory - I've been using a free app called Opera VPN from Aus but haven't got it to work yet - all I've managed to do so far is to turn the Sky Sports site into Dutch, still can't view the videos!
I think I need to find a different VPN that lets me pretend to be in the UK - will have another go when I get back to Aus.
I think if you choose an English speaking country such as Canada as your location (it's one of the options on Opera) you should have more luck as you just need to be overseas.

Yes, but worth every penny  


The wife was going away for a girly weekend.
I jokingly remarked  'I don't know whether to spend it watching porn or watching football'
'you may as well spend it watching porn' she replied
That's understanding darling what makes you say that? I asked

She said 'Well you already know how to play football'
