Title: A little help please...
Post by: ToodlesMcToot on August 24, 2010, 02:41:54 PM
Once or twice last season I was able to listen to a stream of a audio broadcast for Fulham matches via fulhamfc.com

That disappeared unfortunately.

I'm curious. Does anyone know of available audio streams for weekday Fulham matches, in particular this week's versus Port Vale.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

There's always audio commentary from the Fulham official web site c/o Gentleman Jim.

It occasionally breaks down for a while but is usually reliable.

Well, not ALWAYS. We didn't have him for any of the Europa League matches last season, nor did we have him for some League Cup matches away. Plus, there are those days when, for some reason, the broadcast just doesn't happen. There never is any mention ahead of time of their being no broadcast, nor is there ever anything on the main site explaining why.

For untelevised Fulham matches, I much prefer Gentleman Jim to trying to find a video link. He's cheerfully biased, and lives and dies with Fulham for the whole 90 minutes. He has a huge fan base here in America. Check him out.

FYI, go to the official site and click on "FulhamTV" -- then click on "Live Commentary" and you're home free.

I try and post a few video streaming links and audio and text commentary links as well but have noticed recently that a few of our American Foffers have said that none of the links have worked for them the last couple of games.

Is there any a site that works better for you guys than others that I can make sure I include or is it completely hit and miss?

This last Sunday we couldn't pick him at all. But everything was working. The microphones were not  working as 5 live were having trouble as well.

We can generally get Iraq Goals and Veetle here. The problem is that the schedules they list are often not what's shown. the other problem is that each network is dependent upon the individual uploading it. If he gets bored and tunes away, the whole world has lost the link. There are also some uploaders who must be using old technology, because at times links buffer more than they show.

For away games I usually find an acceptable video link.

I tend to tune into them all and as one freezes or gets blocked go onto another. I never manage a good 90 minutes with one stream but usually get to see most of the match.

I tend to prefer the Arabic or Chinese commentaries to those in English particularly if its with an Australian accent.

Are you sure it's an Australian accent you are hearing? Our top commentatotr is Simon Hill a Manchester born Pom and sounds like it - and when it isn't him it's Martin Tyler. I think you might have your wires crossed.

i seem to post this weekly but....


www.myp2p.eu (http://www.myp2p.eu)


has...everything.

every sport, every game, every link, all databased on there.

if you need a link, go there, click on the little TV next to Fulham V whoever we are playing

and it will list about 6 or 7 different streams for games against smaller sides, sometimes up to 30 when we play the big 4

Folks,

Thanks so much for the info. I appreciate the video stream suggestions, but really am just looking for something to listen to without taking too much bandwidth while I work.

I'll try the Fulhamfc method again. I was unable to find that link on several occasions last season. Hopefully it works for the PV match.

As Hatter mentioned, iraqgoals works a lot of the time.
atdhe.com works.  Last year wasn't as reliable as the year before.
my p2p.com is a good one b/c it will list a handful of links...some that work and some that don't.
As has been said, a lot of times you end up watching two different streams to get a full match.
A lot of times in the early season, it proves to be difficult to find a working link but after the first month the kinks get worked out and it's easier to find one that works.

I was able to use one of the video links you posted for the ManU match.  I think it was one of the Iraq Goals link.

Thanks again my friends. Unfortunately, Fulham's site just sits and spins when I try to navigate to the FulhamTV tab. Poor ol' me.  :012:
