Default Championship/Old Division one football

Good morning and please do not laugh.

A question-which channels if any will be broadcasting the Championship next season?

Or do I need to get a digital radio? I have already checked the Aljazeera sport and they seem to be showing only the cup games.

Many thanks, I am sure there is more of us around. COYI.

We'll be playing them next season. Oh what a joy.
Thank you Sandboy and if I end up with only the Cup games next season I might hold you responsible!
Then I'll be a not so appy ammerette.
Anyone who actually supports a Championship club in the ME to confirm it's AlJazeera broadcasting your beloved club games?
But not a Millwall supporter please.
Ta.

Jeez - try following a Division Four club, and see what coverage you get then!

BBC iPLayer Goals of the Week is as good as it gets.

nottmbantam - give us a couple of seasons and we might join you if it stays the way we are

Got the UK VPN so another option might be to watch it on a computer if only I knew how and what are the links. Any help is appreciated.

And there shouldn't be rightfully so.
Would always rather speak to a 'proper'* supporter than your average-please take a pick Utd/Chels/Arsenal/Liverpool plastics**.


* proper as in how many games you have been to;
** Gosh I have been in the ME far too long.

And once again many thanks will try to subscribe to Aljazeera + and I hope their Championship coverage is way better than the WC one. Funny how their web site does not mention it, it might be poor advertising as someone has already said.

It's no that bad actually , i got it for the World Cup last year and all of the other games came with it for a season , it'll cost me 450 QAR to renew it , not too bad really as there's a lot of football on and it's worth it for the Champions league alone

When the Toon were down we had the odd game on, must have seen about 6 games - they only do midweek games I'm afraid fella. So if your team isn't a big team then you'll see even less.
