So are Glasgow going to join every other club and start streaming matches? It’s ludicrous that they don’t and of course have been missing a money stream while denying fans from all over the country from seeing their wonderful, bestest ever, dogs danglies, bigly magnificent race track. 

They can’t honestly expect ageing speedway fans to travel hundreds of miles in each direction to watch 90 mins of live action, but they can charge £12.99 that they wouldn’t have made with a stream. And it doesn’t have to cost much. Redcar’s streaming is basic but good enough. Two cameras. One static IRRC. One guy on a mic. Job done. Everyone happy. 

Sort it out please. Yes, stuck record.
 

 

I will do it from my phone for £79.99

Will pm my bank details.

Glasgow want fans at their meetings. it seems that. Attendances are Ok why do they have stream if they are happy with the situation.Green eyed monsters appearing everywhere these days.🤔😂

Having a stream does not necessarily mean less attendance. Poole crowds are pretty much unaffected by having a stream I would say.

If you put the below promotional code in I will consider discount.

Like I said if the promotion are happy why should they.Streams are OK if Clubs want to do it,their prerogative.

Yes true not every club do it, quite a few premiership clubs dont either. Bit of a shame but as you say that is their prerogative.

I’m not too bothered either way,one thing like I said on previous Post is I don’t understand why they make it cheaper than Admission Price for Stream ,that might have an adverse effect on Attendees who will find it cheaper too watch at home.(especially families)

Kids will always want to be at the stadium rather than watch it at home and most clubs have kids going in for free for at least the summer hols.

If so many clubs still do a stream can't really affect attendances, or if it does the away/neutral fans  watching it makes up for it.

Yeah I would have thought the stream would be the same as the admittance fee at the stadium.

For those that maybe cannot get to the track or find it too costly, then a stream at the same price is crazy!

Clubs see the stream as extra revenue from those opposition fans and others unable or unwilling to travel.

Premiership clubs have the 'benefit' of TNT Sports coverage but still most of them offer their own stream when not on TNT!

I think I'm right in saying that Glasgow are the only Championship club that do not offer a streaming service. Ok thats their perogative and maybe they don't need any extra income from opposition fans unable to visit, especially if they benefit from all stadium income. Shame really.......that is all.

It doesn’t affect Poole’s crowd. Yet there are up to 1000 people from all over the U.K. watching the Poole stream. There will be no more than a handful of Poole fans at Glasgow for the second leg but hundreds willing to buy a stream. Every other club is making good money streaming yet not Glasgow, who somehow think not streaming is the way to go.

Plymouth have a very good streaming service, the same as Poole, with two commentators, several cams and a raving reporter in the pits. Must make quite a bit of money for the club. Used it several times this season. What’s the betting many Glasgow fans paid for the stream when they were at Plymouth?

I would agree Plymouth is a good one, they are not all as good.
