topcat Posted March 26, 2013 Report Share Posted March 26, 2013 (edited) Me and my son had two tickets for the Ramsdens Cup Final game, but I have to work in Qatar until the 13th April so I am definitely missing the game . Please don,t all shout for my spare tcicket as it has already been taken but I would like if I can to get a proxy server for the UK so that I can watch the match. I have heard that this easy to do but would like some advise on the simplest way to set this up.

B.C.G. JAG Posted March 27, 2013 Report Share Posted March 27, 2013 I tried BTguard as it came with good recommendations but I got twat all out of it. My neighbour is trying a different one out just now and says he can get all the BBC channels, so if it works out I will pass the details on.

jagielka Posted March 27, 2013 Report Share Posted March 27, 2013 go to www.firstrowsports.eu you can watch every game, any sport, anywere on the planet, free no questions, nothing to fill in, ect,ect. just click on football and scroll down to the match you want, click on all the (x) you see in the boxes, these are the ads that pay for it . when you have cleared them all, click on the bottom right hand to open box to full screen, and thats it. if the stream is not so good just close it and open the next one available, and so on.

Thanks. Unfortunately due to the high download demand in the working camp I am in the have they have cut out all streaming for things like youtube etc. Firstrow seems to be one of things blocked as well.

Muscat Jag Posted March 30, 2013 Report Share Posted March 30, 2013 Tommy, not sure what value of setting up a VPN account will be if you can't stream the match. Might work is drive somewhere that has WiFi. Good luck anyway! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Might work is drive somewhere that has WiFi. Good luck anyway! Alan Been searching for the email you sent me before on Proxies. Couldn,t find it. Although I can,t stream in the camp I just realised I won,t have that issue at work. So any further advice on getting this set up would be appreciated. Will probably have a go at this Expatshield as recommended by Banderas Tommy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hvc1876 Posted March 31, 2013 Report Share Posted March 31, 2013 Thanks for the expatshield recommendation, seems to be working fine. Does anyone know if the game is live on radio too? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
topcat Posted April 4, 2013 Author Report Share Posted April 4, 2013 (edited) OK have download Expatshield and Iplayer working but does anyone have the link direct to the game? Is this the place below http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b01rqgp8 Edited April 4, 2013 by topcat Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
banderas Posted April 5, 2013 Report Share Posted April 5, 2013 (edited) as its advertised as live on sunday at 1600.00 BST on alba , if you link to the TV ( next to the Iplayer) and select alba , watch live at your local time equivalent to 1600 BST then you will get the link, if you miss it , it will be on Iplayer at 9:55pm BST. if you get to the live link late you get the feature to restart programme from beginning because it looks like it caches previous transmitted programnmes of that days schedule , so you can basically run it back to the start. Sometimes BBC scotland give a link on the BBC SPORT Scotland page. but I think your displayed page will get you there.. http://www.bbc.co.uk/tv/bbcalba/live p.s used http://www.firstrow1.eu/ with the expat on and watched the STJ vs INV live , very easy , just go to the URL and select game , then select any of the given links for that game , just dont know whwre to find the schedule to see if they have Sundays game .

B.C.G. JAG Posted April 7, 2013 Report Share Posted April 7, 2013 For anyone Mac based, google VPN Secure. You can get a uk proxy for 2 days on trial for $2. Works fine for me (in Australia) so I can join everyone live online at least. Heartbreaking not to be there, but will be wearing the colours come 1am.

Waka Posted April 7, 2013 Report Share Posted April 7, 2013 expatshield seems to be working fine. At least I can listen to the "english" commentary just fine. And I can see some picture on BBC Alba. Let's just hope that it will also work once the game starts! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Waka Posted April 7, 2013 Report Share Posted April 7, 2013 (edited) Alba isn't working for me. It did until the counter reached 30 seconds. And now I can't get it to work again... oh well, at least I can listen to some english commentary. Edited April 7, 2013 by Waka Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
