My dad is currently in ITU at Royal Preston following heart surgery so won’t be able to watch the game tomorrow
Does anybody know a way he would be able to listen to it that isn’t Clarets+?
He has his tablet with him, but won’t be able to use Radio Lancs on it as the don’t broadcast the game via online

Could he not sign up to Clarets Player, it's free to listen to the matches, isn't it?

Don’t think the match commentary is part of the “free signup”
Other issue is I wouldn’t be able to get over to him to set it up before hand and he wouldn’t be able to figure it out himself.
I’ve just seen that it’s the commentary game in Talksport2 and I think Ive already downloaded the app for him

Long shot, but what about a friend who has a sky subscription and watch on the sky go app?

Thanks Tony. He’s lot better than he was

Nice idea but issue is trying to get it set up “remotely” as other than my mum, we won’t be over to see him before kick off.
I was with him the other day and completely forgot about the game being an early kick and on TV tbh

Full recovery and swift, is the essential thing. Watching the Mighty Clarets can be testing!

There will be too much stress involved to allow patients access to sport!
Best wishes to your Dad for a speedy recovery.

Probably right there John.
Recovering from a heart attack + playing Dirty Leeds
Might not be the best idea
But seriously, hope he's better soon
