Re: Is Tonights Game v Stoke on SKY
Is the red button available on Virgin media?
I don't think I've ever used it.

Re: Is Tonights Game v Stoke on SKY
I have Virgin and a TIVO box.
I couldn't use the red button last night. On channel 503, where apparently it was available, I got a screen saying 'Sky Sports Football. Please Wait'. I waited and a new screen was generated which said 'Unable to tune to the Channel. Please try again later'. I tried the red button numerous times from 1945 to 2030 all with the same response.
(Other Sky channels, such as 501, just had the 'no interactive ...' page but I believe that is correct as only 503 has the active red button)
I tried to get some joy from Virgin by phoning them but the people I spoke to didn't seem to understand the problem. I've just posted on the Virgin Media Community Forum. They get numerous complaints on this subject, occasionally ending with 'problem resolved', the last being three weeks ago, but with no saying what the solution was.
It seems to be temperamental at the very least.

Re: Is Tonights Game v Stoke on SKY
I've never watched a red button game, and it was a bit rubbish with no replays and just a single camera angle. The commentator sounded like he was in the radio gantry bit but I don't know who he was.
Are all red button games like that?

Commentator was Guy Havord, who reports from games on soccer Saturday on Sky.distortiondave wrote: ↑Thu Oct 06, 2022 10:19 amI've never watched a red button game, and it was a bit rubbish with no replays and just a single camera angle.

Re: Is Tonights Game v Stoke on SKY
I spent hours trying to access a red button on a computer but had to settle for a hesgoal stream with the most annoying radio Stoke commentary. Two old geezers who just wouldn’t stop talking. I had to turn the sound down.

Yes, you can get it via Virgin & Tivo box. I did last night.Hipper wrote: ↑Thu Oct 06, 2022 7:33 amI have Virgin and a TIVO box.

You have to scroll down the various Sky sports channels on the channel menu until you get to a football one which is NOT in HD.
When you press the red button on that, wait a few seconds and a lower case "i" for info pops up bottom left.
Press the "i" button on your remote and hey presto, all the red button games are displayed to choose from.
Just be aware it's not HD obvs, there's only one camera angle (main stand), no replays of any sort inc goals and whilst only one commentator might be a blessing these days, he sounds like he's coming from a garden shed in Hounslow. Probably is.
Good luck and hope this helps.

Re: Is Tonights Game v Stoke on SKY
Was Radio Lancs main commentator in the Mullen years. Famously produced the "Jimmy Mullen's Claret and Blue Armada" line at Plymouth, feigning delight at Burnley's progress - whilst being a Plymouth fan himself.durhamclaret wrote: ↑Thu Oct 06, 2022 11:03 amCommentator was Guy Havord, who reports from games on soccer Saturday on Sky.
