Who needs Sky when we will have Ken Brown rolling a ball off the green?

By Jove, Splendid...

The problem with the red button coverage is the awful picture quality if you are used to watching golf in HD. Also you can't record it.

2 HRS SUNDAY ON THE BEEB,strip out the adverts and claude dissecting dusty,s bin the 5000th time and 2hrs is equivalent to 7 hrs play on sky,

By:
This i confidently predict will be an absolute unmitigated disaster....6hrs coverage of final major and on the RED Button.Utter ****g nonsense,why bid at all?
And we will all then understand how good Skys big events are. Standard tourneys still terrible but that generally down to picking up the US feed,wall to wall ads,and drivel. |
|
By:
So likely no coverage of Matsy,Spiffy,DJ, Live, amongst others day one then??Or do we have any other coverage elsewhere?Or on BBC?
|
|
By:
Poor that the bbc don't have it on live on a proper channel although i believe it will only be like this because of the athletics not sure why one can't be on bbc 1 and one on bbc 2
The only advantage of the bbc is events on there often have better liquidity back in the day the bmw pga championship event was one of the biggest events on here for volume of bets but this will probably be negated by the red button cant see many other than the die hards pressing the red button |
|
By:
What's to not like?
No Ewan Murray, no ads, no messages all over the screen about what's on later. Even the worst BBC coverage is better than the best Sky offers. |
|
By:
bbc coverage is absolutely absymal, back in the dark ages, oh well atleast its only for the PGA and not one of the real majors, this is just a tour event really
|
|
By:
report in The Times says that the BBC are using USTV feeds, with none of their own commentators out there. Worst of all worlds? The good news is that they're not guaranteed future coverage rights.

Some of you couldnt be more wrong re BBC,This will be pathetic,and if weather delays involved forget it,well all be sat here like bloody mushrooms,sat in the dark and fed ****!
|
|
By:
If it's Nantz, Faldo, Kostis and no 2 minute delay then that will be fine by me
|

By:
can't get red button on ipad
BBC c@nts |
|
By:
oh and forgot to say, if its on the red button the bbc prob wont stream it in HD the tight b******, they dont stream the snooker in HD on the red button, its going to look horrific
wtf were the pga thinking not renewing skys contract ffs |

Cringeworthy so far, and we're only 10 minutes in. They'd have been better getting Lineker and Shearer to do the job.
|
|
By:
Shambles.As expected.
|
|
By:
Feels more like "Shells Wonderful World of Golf" than a live major.
|
|
By:
not watching what's the main prob
|
|
By:
No HD and the BBC dinosaurs.
No chat just shots a plus though. |
|
By:
At least 5 minutes behind the score board.Might as well be on Teletext.
|
|
By:
Sadly, reports suggesting that the BBC commentary team would not be on duty this week proved to be unfounded
|
|
By:
do you think PGA would of given bbc the contract if they knew it was on the red button

|
By:
When you have Alliss in Blunderland you know it's not good.
All the commentators of yesteryear, Carpenter,Coleman, O'Sullevan, Walker, Maskell etc knew when to step down. But not him. ![]() |
|
By:
I like Alliss and co, delighted its on beeb.

By:
sky channel 980 if you dont want to go through the red button on bbc1
|
|
By:
this is brutal,commentators reporting as though they've been kidnapped and forced out there against their will
|
|
By:
thanks for the 980 info that helps a little
|
|
By:
is it me or is this just so flat
|
|
By:
commentators not getting told who is coming up on camera
and found wanting for knowledge i can imagine them fuming more than us |
|
By:
The BBC don't do sport.................what do people expect.........sooner it gets shut down, the better..............
|
|
By:
does anyone know if the BBC just got the event for this year as a trial or have they signed a multi year deal?
