In the US and similar supported areas:
download ESPN app to your fire stick/firetv / roku /phone/tablet etc

Scroll to ESPN +
Sign up to the monthly subscription $5.99 per month
Watch game
Cancel subscription if we get beat. Maximum cost to see the game $5.99

Should we win I think the 4th round is still in this billing cycle and it’ll be on so games would equal $2.99 each.

After 4th round review if we are still in it and either a) continue or b) Remember Your subscription will automatically be renewed unless you cancel

Is the game still definitely on?

The FA Player is not available internationally. Overseas fans can watch via one of the following international broadcasters channels:


Malta - TSN

They are a list of womens football teams that the FA Player must stream thats all. I ignored it.

Ditto. I suspect I’ll only use the site to watch the Clarets. Zero interest in women’s football.

Managed to eventually get this app on my phone and registered. Using the Screen mirroring from Samsung Galaxy phone to Samsung TV. I'll see how that goes but if it is poor quality I'll watch on a Chromebook. Definitely a lag though. I've complained to the FA and am in dialogue with their FA Player team regarding the whole process.

Doesn’t appear to work on The Isle of Man .........booo.

The site looks very strange this morning I hope they get it sorted for 3pm today.

There doesn’t appear to be any videos available to play at all at the moment

I've got a fire stick and have signed up to FA player via my phone. Can I just log on to fa player through the internet browser on fire stick and bobs your uncle, or is it infinitely more hassle, any help greatly received

Cannot get it to work at all today, anybody else having problems ?Or know of a solution?

I’m signed in on my phone but no videos are showing - not even in previous round highlights that were there before

Same for me.....one hopes you don’t have to select your 2 favourite teams from that embarrassing list in order for it to work......

2 reasons
1 there’s no BFC
2 how on earth can any self respecting football fan have more than 1 favourite team

Typical FA I reckon, it’s no wonder why their refs have ‘favourite teams’....

I’m guessing it’s the first time they have tried to do something like this and it’s becoming apparent that it can’t cope with the demand. Not looking good for this afternoon’s game.

They have streamed them before for earlier rounds, but obviously not with the same demand

Just accessed the website on my tv will I beable to watch it from this menu?

I'm watching highlights of Liverpool ladies so it looks promising for out game

Now showing highlight videos on phone

I’m thinking of casting the match to tv later

Seems to be working fine on my tv great picture no buffering might be different when it goes live though.

They are only showing 3 games at 3pm so hopefully shouldn’t be too bad

Hope so Mr Wilks.

How on earth do you get in. There are some games on at 1:30 so I thought I'd test it with one but don't seem to be able to find how to get in to a game.

Forget that, just spotted that the 1:30 kick offs are tomorrow.

Just can't get this app to work.
It's garbage.
I've created an account...then tried to use it, after signing in and, it says I need an account........ keeps sending me round in circles.
Tried all ways. Deleting app and downloading again....blah blah.
App is deleted..... permanently!
Have much less brainache getting a dodgy stream.

I’ve given up - was in a Kafka esque Lopo of 2 different login screens and/or being told to upgrade to fa player to watch anything.
Plus said it knows me - so did it twice as me and then a new account
Is that bt show on that has all the goals at 3pm - at least if it is I might see bits of it

I'd turned the sound off (listening to Bowie) but mine also had crap music

Snap.

I'm hoping something happens before 3 otherwise I'll be scrambling around for a stream.

Good afternoon all from the Coconut Coast,

I have the same screen as above.

Use your web browser on your tv

FA player just won't let me in!

The music sent me to sleep.... twice

Not so much music as a 10 second loop. It reminds me of Halloween II.

Registered yesterday and just logged in now on my desk pc. Selected watching the game live and all I am seeing is wheel of death!

Using tablet now, seems ok(ish)

A picture

We're there - live from the Turf (or liveish).

Looking good come on you Clarets

Sorted. Kicked the kids off the Xbox and used their Xbox to get online through Microsoft Edge.

Got to admit was a little sceptical was going to work but so far so good

Just need to turn club notifications off as seems to be little behind
