DigitAlb - No Saturday 3pm kick-offs

[ciaran]

Just has a quick look at LJ's fixtures and noticed that DIgitalb are not showing a single match at 3pm on the first day of the season...

Just thought i'd register my disgust at this development.

[Mickha]

Check closer to kick off as DigitAlb are always late with their listings and LJ's is usually only updated with DigitAlbs listings 24-48 hours before kick off.

[ciaran]

LOL...after my rage had soothed...i was actually coming to that conclusion..

but - LJ has the early an late matches up and the channels listed...

the fact that he has the actual channels they are on suggests that theyve already listed their schedule for next week....

[Mickha]

Going by last season you are never sure what games they are showing until the day before kick off, and sometimes even not then.

[ciaran]

according to LJ...apparently Digitalb are only showing a single 3 o clock match this saturday...i would assume this confirms the rumour that they have sold the rights to matches....this is very dissappointing especially considering they have hiked their prices up considerably...

I still have a month left on last years sub....so it looks like i wont be renewing....offering one match at 3 on saturday...is not really worth it.


BOOOOOOOOOO digitalb.

[ciaran]

Diablo v2.3 cam will clear that channel.

[ciaran]

unforuntately i only have a dragon...

damn.

was looking forward to seeing how shít everton were this season...

ah well, spurs match it is i guess.

[Mickha]

From what I remember Everton are being shown on Prima TV, 1W, part of Digi TV, and so is viewable on the Dragon Cam.
Further rumours are that DigitAlb have sold the rights to cup games, FA Cup and Champions League, but none of these rumours have been confirmed.
Check Friday night for any football being shown on DigitAlb as they are generally not even listed in DigitAlbs own guides until then.

I wouldn't expect to get accurate schedules for DigitAlb until anytime as late as Saturday morning.

I'd hazard a guess that Boro v Spurs and the Everton game is likely to be the ones chosen.

Well LJ's say they aren't, so maybe it's real. There's various rumours flying about as to why; Olympics, pay-off by the Premier League, financial difficulties at DigitAlb.

I know that this won't be appreciated, but we must remember that we aren't officially meant to be either able to get hold of the cards or watch 3pm games in this country, so we can't fuss when it doesn't happen. I feel sorry for Albanians, they are the ones who've been done a kipper.

I am in no doubt that that the 'beat will go on', as they say. The demand is too high.

This was posted on DS but may be of interest to some of our members. Apologies for the poor English - its a typical Darkman rant.

"For all Members.


Digitalb been under presure from FAPL and Sport 5 all this time.


FAPL trying to take of the right sport 5 for that territori and Sport 5 is taking with Digitalb to dont gave the feeds to the digitalb if they dont sight for the math of 3 pm untill end of November...

This is Just to do happey FALP and their big coustemers Sky b.


The threating is done to digitalb is Ilegal...some one is fighting for that.

But they says or take this decision or we will not let you the feeds to transmite the epl.

Digitalb for the good of their Coustemers try all the best even the fight countiniu but am sory to says ...untill the end of November is in the fight and maybe not 3 PM....after that Digitalb has agains the rights to show 3 PM for shure.


In this situation is not a digitalb Foult becouse the Big Mafia or you know what am tolking could live all of us without nothink.


No one knew that situation that happenst only 2 days agou ,by my self i try help digitalb or actually Supersport but the fight is on ,not finished.

For that i ask they to show Coca cola Championship in 3 pm untill the mater of Premireship will sold out...


But the dead Line is 31 Novembre


after that again will be 3 pm.

From this its quite obvious the DigitAlb have been got at by the FAPL.

Its the same sort of pressure that was put on ART when they wouldnt stop the cheap subs leaking into the UK a couple of years back - and look what happened to their Premiership rights when they came up for renewal.

[Stejc]

What makes November 31st so special? Why can they suddenly show 3pms after this again?

[Analoguesat]

DM is a pillock. Since when has there been a November 31st??

There is a theory that the 'bad English' is a deliberate act but then I digress .............

Another deliberate act is murder explain that then

[wod]

surprised any one had digitalb as the picture was poor quality anyway

[hoppo1]

Am I missing something?

[Topper]

Am I missing something?

Presumably but if I have to explain the workings of my grey matter then I will. It was an association of ideas.

There is a theory that the 'bad English' is a deliberate act but then I digress .............

Whilst 'bad English' may be a deliberate act .... so is murder otherwise it would be manslaughter........ So what..you may ask..... precisely

All completely off topic however upon reflection yes the 'bad English' could be used to divert your attention away from the actual problem in hand that of lack of footie on Digitalb.

I think you´ve gone a bit off track.
Mad rantings are not encouraged on this forum.
Nor leaps of faith?

Don't worry about Topper, they only let him out on day release. Occasionally.

As for the linguistic trickery which bigtree suspects, I think the jury is divided on such allegations. What we do know is that DM has a rather intimate knowledge of the goings-on at DigitAlb, or he at least purports to.
