    Thank @ramsesKnibs for posting the content. He has been doing a stellar job and hopefully we can get this new community to be just as great if not better than R/Reddevils.

    Keep up the good work, I’m hoping the reddevils sub will be just as active as the Reddit one some day.

      At home, with a 2yo crawling around the sofa 😅

      I worked a few months in New York tough (I’m from Europe) and then I would watch the games at the United pub. It was a great experience!

      It was during a dark Ole period and we had gone a few games without a shot on target IIRC, we had a shot on target and the pub went crazy cheering like it was the CL trophy

      Sky/BT Sport in the UK, so probably only see maybe 15/20 games of the season on average. Try and get to one a season at OT but it’s difficult with the ticket releases

      I watch at home mainly. I’m in the UK so pay an extortionate amount of money for Sky Sports and BT Sport so watch as much as I can, but we don’t even get every game over here

        I started watching on NBC (we can watch it with antennas), but only had some matches. The pre-match and after-match banter was good enough. That is one thing that I miss with Fubo/DAZN, there rarely is some commenting before/after/mid. Tried watching with some YT fan channels at the same time, it’s just a pain to keep in ‘sync’. I do get a digital copy from “friendly sailors” of Match Of The Day 1/2 that I find useful to gain a bit more info on the weekend’s matches.

        I was debating about writing the price, don’t want to push an open wound, it’s about 60$CAN for 3 months here for Fubo/DAZN . I think it’s a good deal. (legal too…). It does buffer at the worst times (and my Internet connection is NOT the issue…)

      I’m in the US and mostly watching through Peacock network for the PL games. Thankfully the price of Peacock is only $5.

      For the FA cup and CL… I go in the woods where there are water streams

      I mostly just watch at home. I’m in USA so there aren’t many places to watch, but oddly enough there’s a pub that my wife goes to watch Spurs games with the local supporters group

        Please imagine a Spurs Derogatory + Funny comment here. But what a neat striker they have…

      Here in Mexico we have Paramount+ for Premier League games which is great as it’s cheap and you get all the games. Cup games are all on other channels that are pretty inexpensive with the TV packages like ESPN and Fox Sports. Champions League is on HBO but we account share to access that.

    I don’t think we need this community to be as big as the subreddit. Just active enough!

    I would rather have a smaller, more focused community than match threads with 3000+ comments.

      i completely agree. the sheer volume of comments that flows into match threads became too difficult to even follow lol
