I am an an IT ignoramus.

Download sopcast and get the links from myp2p. Or go to http://www.ustream.tv/ and search for the games.

This is easier the live prem matches. The Prem is lock into contractual agreements and broadcast rights normally to subscription channels such as Sky & ESPN.

As mentioned already mentioned ITV and BBC have the games and both have the games online.
Evan better the Beeb have a 'live channel' rather then going via the website. I'm watching Cbeebies at work!!
http://www.bbc.co.uk/bbcone/watchlive/

Not ideal as I'd rather be in a pub but I can watch the 12:30 and 15:00 games during the week at my desk!

Same here, no need to take any days/afternoon offs to watch games

Apparently this is where ITV are streaming theirs:

I imagine BBC will be linked on the main page

Good thing with the Beebs one is you can check it now to see if it works...at work.

I was told about this website the other day, but I haven't tried it myself. You may get the games on here Sid, I think they have a streaming service also.

If you work for a multinational firm, your internet traffic may well be redirected overseas, and the BBC and ITV links won't work!

Go to this address: http://www.geobytes.com/IpLocator.htm

If the location is anything other than UK, you'll need to proxy out.

This is what I have to do (work for a US company):

I connect to my home PC which is connected to my (UK-based) broadband. Works a treat for iPlayer

Interesting? I assume your Pc is switched on at home for this?

Can I have your IP address?

surely if your at work...you should be working not watching football matches on the internet

your not a politican or work for Local Governement do you

We've got t.v's set up all around my bank for the W.C., I had to go out and get several freeview boxes for this purpose, it's to stop staff watching the games from their desks.

Thanks lads, tried tne bbc link and it's not available in my area, but sure I will get one of them to work. If not I'm sure the lads on the shop floor will have the radio on.

Yep, it's switched on all the time (it's a mini-server which hosts all my porn videos ) All you need to do is install SSH (here if your home PC is Windows, it should already be there if it's Linux, or enable "Remote Login" service on Mac OSX) and remember the IP address. If your IP changes constantly (ie, if you use cheap shitty ADSL), register a dynamic address at http://www.dyndns.com/ and SSH onto that instead. Oh, and you need to forward the port for SSH (22) to whichever PC you have set up as your SSH server on your router (www.portforward.com) for more info.

And even if you knew my IP, you would never guess my username and password


And yes, I'm supposed to be working while I'm at work, but I have two screens, one for watching football, one for forums
