Red button?

Since it completely froze around the 20 minute mark, the pictures been fine, with the exception of the overkeen camera man trying to chase the ball for a few minutes!!

Commentary has been absolutely fine all game for me, strange. 

If it makes any difference I've got the red button whilst on Main Event, rather than football league.

Watched first half. No stuttering or freezing, but ad others have said, completely different commentary.

Honestly, it's so bad. Consistently.

No picture at all now just a weird coloured light show ….first half was cutting in and out ….May as well have been listening to Norman Collier !!

Worth trying hesgoal.com in future for midweek games to see if available.

Had all tonight’s games and you can screen mirror. Biased Radio Norfolk commentary but was still good and they show replays, have a couple of camera angles etc.

Still not the best picture but much better than virgin red button

What an absolute shitshow that was.

At HT I swear I was wondering if I'd inadvertently dropped some acid into my cuppa.

Joking aside, it was pretty pathetic all round.

How the **** could they go 90 minutes and not sort out the right commentary?

Half time came and I thought,  now they'll sort it.

WRONG!  Let commence 15 minutes plus of groovy Syd era Floyd visuals, blackouts, reboots etc etc

HEY! It's back.... Oh,    Luton v Cov sound still.

I think the problems are with Virgin. Some others who have Sky said there was no issue?

Yeah, definitely had the right commentary throughout on Sky. Was obvious he was sat in a studio working off the picture we were seeing though because he kept apologising for it stuttering and then stopped speaking when it froze completely during the first half.

I couldn't get anything at all..............it seemed to want to load for a millisecond then just went back to the preamble of Reading game . I'm on Virgin too .

For fellow Virgins:

After the red button, press the info button, up pops the list of games.

Where it's the wrong match commentary, turn box off and repeat.

Where the picture freeezes, go grab a frosty one from the fridge.

All sorted... Except the result.

That Red Button coverage of the game at Norwich was pure comedy gold.

Everything that could go wrong, did go wrong.

The talented four year-old that filmed last night's game, fully deserves the Roger Malone & Phil Tottle Betamax Award that he will inevitably win hands down.

Thankfully, I am on course to making a full recovery.

The doctor assures me that my eyes will eventually uncross themselves and that my exploded brain can easily be put back together with gaffer tape.

Can't wait for the next match on the red button.

That's a tad harsh if you don't mind me saying.
