The farce of Banning games from streaming / tv at 3pm in the UK
0
So rules prevent the showing of games at 3pm in the UK but are available to ROW. Makes sense you want folks to attend where possible.
However Technology has a way around that AND with the advent of devices - folks can watch without subscribing.
Sky and others must know the volumes concerned. Advertisers just need viewers - dont care if they are subscribers I imagine.
So given all this are subscribers being taken for a ride and is it realistic to a ban on broadcast when technically it would appear to be unenforceable - some clubs even promote the tools to do this.
A pundit (could have been abroad mind) talked of watching a game at the weekend that should not have been possible to watch from the UK.
Is it just in the Uk we have this shenanigans?
