England v Croatia live

Bloody typical

Didn't find your answer?

The one time I want to watch live sport, Aweb doesn't have spam to tell me how.

Ok you've hooked me... isn't that a cost of putting yourself in a position to watch, not a cost (in the performance of) watching?

Cost isn't necessarily incurred anyway. I've heard that the TV still works even without a licence and some don't have one at all. Others watch a TV in a somebody else's house. Therefore as not every person who watches the game incurs the expense then surely it can't be necessarily incurred?

Just go to the game. You'll see it about three seconds earlier.

i-player needs a licence, unless you are a student and parents pay for one, and you use batteries not plug in.

Not quite right, iPlayer asks you if you have a licence. Not technically the same as actually having one.

Being a student and your parents paying for one doesn't nessecessarily mean the student shouldn't get a licence. Devil is in the detail.

But not other catchup services, so watch it on ITV catchup and you're golden.

By the time Scotland play Wales in the final, I'll know how and where to watch.

Did not know you too were a believer in a multiverse.

My challenge for this tournament is to ensure the £10 placed with William Hill is more than £10 by the end, catch is that to date, in the main, my heart has being doing the betting.

That's a poem with more than one verse, isn't it?

Pretty much.

Did you know Samuel Taylor Coleridge was one of the first football commentators.

"It is an ancient Mariner,
And he stoppeth one of three."

William Hill? I'm sure they's not the only ones at it, but I consider their behaviour to be despicable. In big bold capitals they're offering 60/1 against Scotland to win today. But read the (very) small print and you will see that the stake is a fixed £1 and if you win you get 6 £10 bets. And folks wonder why we still have a gambling problem in the UK?

William Hill also have a "Bet £10 Get £40" (of Free Sports Bets) Offer, which was tempting yours truly to wager a tenner on Scotland and spread-bet the free £40 on the Czechs and a draw.

Until, that is, I studied the smallprint; which stipulates a "35 x wagering requirement" & "max redeemable bonus £25" (whatever that means). Whatever happened to bet responsibly?

I watched it, because there was no cricket on. At least the football result provided some cheer, as I had been anticipating another great British (because its always British if we lose) sporting defeat.

Next time, arrange a Teams call with someone who has a subscription and do a crafty screen share [joke - I would never condone such practice].

On a more serious note, it is a concern that people were on Aweb on a hot sunny Sunday afternoon, and I would like to refer you for counselling.

But Aweb, on a Sunday? Haven't accountants got lives? Its not as if its January and there are tax returns to do. Mind you, some will no doubt claim that all the extra pandemic pressure means they work 24/7, and in most cases I would believe them.
