    I don't know why this has popped into my head, but who better to ask than the not606 Swansea faithfuls.

    I know we're allocated x amount of games on Sky, but depending on who you listen to some people have said there are certain pubs in Swansea that have these magical Arabian satellite dishes... Forgive me if they're not Arabian. But apparently all games Swans games will be shown live.

    I know from last season there were Swans games show live on the internet that weren't on Sky, and I know from going to Bulgaria that they show games we aren't showing on TV over here... So just wondered if anybody knew or had any info!

    There is a pub in Killay, with a big Swans logo on the front window (Commercial) the landlord of this establishment is an expert on these satellite dishes, and would be your best port of call for info on such matters Doey, plus he's a Jack!..............

    I think the Cross Keys has one of those imported boxes. Last time I was in there I noticed that one of the Arabic channels (btw i dont think they are all Arabic just happens that this one was lol) was on standby on a tv in the back bit so I am assuming that it was an imported box. No idea if they still have it.

    But given the latest EU semi-decision (easiest way to describe it) it is highly likely more and more pubs will start using them next season unless Sky get their own way.

    will have every Swans match live on Fox here in Australia, might be too far to travel every week though

    As dragonPhill pointed out, the commercial in killay (my local) is always a good shout, more often than not you'll get the game on there, my mate is the assistant manager, even if it's not on when you get there, they will always see what they can do!

    Thank you gentlemen, appreciate the help! Looks like I might be unknowingly bumping into a few of you at The Commercial (or any other place that may jump on board this great idea)

    I always thought it was illegal but id say 95% of pubs here in Liverpool show EVERY Liverpool and Everton game live.

    They even advertise what they're so I dont see why Swansea pubs can't/won't do the same....

    every single premiership games gets televised anyway, the minimum that we will be on sky is 10 games, we may have more but cant have less. the times that we wont feature on sky may be found if you look on line, it wont be in english in most cases but at least you can watch the game,

    Google is your friend. Come match day, just google the two teams names + "live stream" or similar and voila! Almost all prem games will be on TV somewhere in the world, and therefore probably being streamed online also.

    fox australia is a good source of prem football. it's usually a good quality stream. i've used it a few times to watch prem games. just navigate your way through myp2p.com to the swans game. it'll be there somewhere.

    Thanks guys, i'm quite used to streaming and that sort of stuff so would have no problem finding streams. I was looking for information on where I could watch it on a screen (TV quality, not stream) and have been helped A LOT.

    Thanks!
