Quoted from Chrisblor

Yeah but it's only a workaround which we shouldn't have to rely on. The android equivalent of getting flash to work is very fiddly and doesn't allow you to watch the highlights full-screen. If Perform were actually bothered about their customers they would have implemented a HTML 5 player ages ago (like every other streaming video provider on the internet)


You have to say, it's an excellent bit of underhand work on Perform's (previously PremiumTV) part. The stock website template they provide for clubs is also terrible - I barely ever visit the OS these days because of how poor the design is. Apparently clubs have to pay a hefty fee if they want to get out the contract so we'll just have to wait until it expires.


I heard it was having to pay back 50% of the subscriptions that I very much doubt any club will do.

Comment from the Halifax forum about theirs :-

On youtube, it does show the difference in quality of playback between that and the player platform that is 10 years old and no sign of them upgrading it

I also agree about the OS I rarely go on it as it takes an age to load and is poorly laid out.

Was this a contract negotiated by each club or was it another of the Football league's foul-ups like the ITV Digital contract?


Through the door there came familiar laughter,
I saw your face and heard you call my name.
Oh my friend we're older but no wiser,
For in our hearts the dreams are still the same.

Don't know the answer to that one.

I am sure that ive read somebody before comment that it was a Football League decision. I can't imagine that every club in the Championship down would tie themselves into the same restrictive contract.

It really frustrates me that we have to pay to watch highlights of conference football when other clubs at this level just upload better quality footage on YouTube. Football league clubs can also watch there goals on TV, no such luxury for non league fans. I really want to watch mondays goals again but begrudge paying to do so when I've already paid to watch them first hand. It really does annoy me but I'm sure this isn't gtfc's doing.

Maybe getyourfactsright could explain the clubs position on this as I believe it's a bone of contention for many fans.


"Falls to Arnold... Arnold! That's it! Thats it! He's sealed it! Grimsby Town are back in the football league!!! Just a minute to go and Nathan Arnold makes it 3-1! Look at the scenes behind the goal! Look at the relief! The agony is finally over!!!"

The whole Mariners player is poor. I want to see player interviews there thoughts on the games and youth matches not just the standard BBC interview with Paul Hurst and then maybe some match highlights when they can be bothered to put them on. Its a poor format and poor handling but i still pay
