Where did you see that, I can't find it...

It was up there yesterday. They must have taken it down already if you were looking today. http://ftrtorrents.blog-city.com/

Well, so much for that! The website seems to be gone. :(

It appears to be back at a new address. Looks like I get to see the Classic!

Is there a torrent available somewhere ?

Well they claimed there would be but it switched to PSV-Willem II halfway through the match. Someone on Maxxed said they could cap it at the end of the week, so if we're patient we still get to see it.

Completely absurd and stupid choice. Of course I can't complain because it is a free service, but still....

Look at the games, look at the scores, I mean everything gives you an idea of what game you should provide as a torrent.....

Another point for the Korean lobby X'C :D :D

For someone in the internet wilderness,the Fox Report highlights were definitely just the ticket.All 5 goals were shown.Grygera's was brilliant!! DeJong and Maduro showed cool finishes .I sometimes forget how young the latter two are;although Grygera is certainly not an old fart.

The only mention of the problems involving supporters was a mention of the own goals(i.e. fireworks going off in pockets)scored by F-word "supporters".If it sounds harsh to make fun of a person being injured, who's fault was it ultimately?

is eredivisie no longer on canal+ this season???

I think I remember something with the private channel of Jon "Fucking wanker with the fucking real TV shows that he can stuff up this ass" De Mol. Maybe it was the whole whampionship or only the Sunday show or something. Don't remember despite my brilliant memory *cough cough*

Correct Mr De Mol bought the lot to launch a new channel.
NOS keeps a bit (Sat. night highlights).
Canal+ is in trouble.

They spent A LOT of money on French Footie, so they're kinda short on cash these days...

There is an upside and a downside to the whole De Mol thing...

The downside is evident: it is a safe bet that Talpa (that's the name of De Mol's new station) will f*ck up the good old Sunday evening highlights show big time. This used to be on NOS Studio Sport (public TV) and they had a certain journalistic approach. Like the BBC in England, kind of. On Talpa it will be all 'entertainment' (which, in today's TV industry, is an equivalent for 'hysterical and retarded'). There will be ads everywhere and they will do all kinds of text messaging contests for idiots, like: 'From which city are Ajax? A. Amsterdam, B. Enschede or C. Tokyo? Text the correct answer to this-or-that number... (oh yeah, one more thing this will cost you 125 euros per text message and we will also spam you to death after that).

The upside is that there will be no more live games on Canal+. Which means there's a chance that the infamous 12:30 kick-off may belong to the past. Which is great news. I hated 12:30 games, especially if it was Roda or Groningen away (departure from the ArenA: 8:30 AM on Sunday or whatever).

For you foreigners it won't make much of a difference. I actually think that your chance of seeing an Ajax game on a regular basis will increase. Talpa are only interested in money, so I'm sure they'll try to strike some international deals for Eredivisie rights sooner or later. They are more likely to do that than the NOS.

The later is not so obvious, since if my memory serves me right, the clubs have the Internet-rights, not Talpa.

I don't think you have to be so negatie, Ko. When the rights were sold to Talpa, the offer was that certain things were kept as they were. So the sports programme will be on sunday at 7 o' clock and that sort of things. Also I don't think that Talpa will put comercials between matches, because in that case the whole of the Netherlands will crush down and protest against it.

The rest of the whole Talpa network doesn't interest me at all. So if they leave the football alone, they can put comercial adverts in every single second broadcast time if they want to.

Herenveen's chairman said that he has been promised there will be a lot less emphasis on Ajax on the new Talpa football show.

Apparently the over emphasis on Ajax in Studio Sport (which he called Studio Ajax) caused a lot of irritation to the other clubs in N.L. - and that was one of the major reasons why the clubs voted for the new deal.

I predict that Talpa may try that initialy, but by the winterstop as the ratings continue to fall, they will have to resort to S.S. levels of Ajax attention. The plain fact is that Ajax is far and away the biggest football brand in the Netherlands, and ratings will fall if people don't get to see much of them.

That is frustrated, provincial bollocks. Plain simple. Complete nonsense.

Less emphasis on Ajax on Talpa? Good for them. I don't care.

But meanwhile all the other Dutch clubs talk about is Ajax. Hypocrites. :hypocrite:

Well, we get the highlights show on satellite here (bvn), and I quite enjoy that. I guess we'll still get the saturday show now, which is redundant since Ajax rarely plays on the saturday. Hopefully espn retains some rights so we still get an occasional full game.

According to soccerTV.com, the upcoming Amsterdam Tournament will be shown LIVE on GOL TV in the United States. According to SoccerTV.com's GOL TV page, this channel is available on the following services:

DISH Network: Channel 853 (Spanish), 407 (English)
DirecTV: Channel 614
DirecTV Para Todos: Channel 426

Yay, I get to watch the tourney! :bis:

Read my comment in the 'Match of the day' section. It's probably the easiest way for you to watch the game.

Yes but what if he's doing something else at the same time ? Say mow the lawn or coaching his kids' soccer team ?

Yeah its not possible for me to use the Web to watch it.
Anyone interested in helping me out?
Thanks

He who? He as in he who's recording the games? It's not he, it's they and they are capping the game and it will be online. Or he as in he who's gonna downloand the game? He can leave his computer online and go to whatever kids' soccer training he wants to. ;)

But if you're on a 56k connection it's ofcourse not the best solution.
