[ITA] Serie A 2011/2012 (18 Viewers)

[sallyinzaghi]

Bad news for fans who have access to RAI International in their country. Due to the Italian Government performing spending cuts (due to shit economy) they are massively cutting down on the funding to RAI Int, therefore most of their Serie A/B coverage will go. I think the most we will get is La Giostra Dei Gol game on Sunday, and perhaps La Domenica Sportiva. Terrible news, even though the sound and picture quality sucked, they still broadcast 4-5 live games a week. Apparently this will take effect on the 1st January 2012

wow that sucks ass considering setanta doesn't have the rights. ONEHD NEEDS TO SAVE US ALLL

 

Buy on AliExpress.com

What about the other shows like the song festival and variety programs? Gone?

Not sure man. I just read on a few forums about the Calcio and the commentator before the Bologna V Milan game confirmed it.

ONE HD wont do shit. They'll just continue showing games delayed by 6-7 days like they usually do.

Thanks man.

I just googled this

It may just shut down all together. Wow

Are there not any Serie A HD live streaming sights one can pay for? I saw one for 20 pounds a year recently but thought it was likely to be a scam.

I know it's ridiculous that they don't show it because there are HEAPS of Serie A fans here in Australia. Setanta sports bought the rights but they don't fucking show it. I would get foxtel or whatever just for that so I could watch every Juve game live in HD on TV. None of this streaming bullshit.

They're showing Juve vs Roma 3:30am on Friday

Well short term fix. Thescore.ca is showing the Roma/Juve game live this Monday. They usually have a free stream on their site for their broadcasted games. Very decent stream.

It sucks that ESPN3 is limited to the US, it would be perfect for you guys.

Shame about RAI. I usually catch any Friday games, late Saturday, late Sunday, and Monday games on the channel. Luckily TLN, theScore and GolTV all show Serie A in Canada for me.

 

[ZoSo]

The only way to get it here legally on your TV is through RAI Italia and I'm pretty sure they don't even show all the games. It's ridiculous.

This is fucking bullshit.

Well, it seems I'll have to start to listen again to Richard Whittle and Paul Visca on FSC

Hopefully someone will step up with half decent coverage in Canada...a lot of the brainwashed epl fans here don't rate serie A because of the absolutely garbage broadcasting of tln and are drawn to the epl coverage (abd they do a great job I must admit). The score has done a decent job but they miss the big sunday games

Well at least the Score stopped talking about EPL games before and at HT of Serie A games. They actually try to present the game and give a little insight. Personally I just care that the game is in HD and on.

I got RAI Latino America and they show all our Serie A games. There have been a few exception but when they're not on RAI, they're on ESPN or ESPN+. It sucks they don't show Coppa Italia games though.

I'm as good as canceling my RAI International if they do this.

No Goltv in South America?

Oh, and for the record, if I had to depend on English-language soccer coverage from the U.S. or England broadcasters, as much of the world does, I would piss on the sport as the domain of mouth-breathing wankers and EPL cocksmokers. That's how horrendous I consider most English-language soccer coverage in the world.

I don't know, maybe I need a special subscription to it.

I cant stand English commentators, especially when the call Serie A games. That's why I always prefer to watch it on RAI, love listening to a proper Italian commentator describe the action. Too many English commentators just start ripping into Calcio with their bullshit stereotypes and its annoying as fuck to listen to.

I don't think there could ever be a post on these forums I could agree with more.
