I'm having a 'mare
thought I'd easily be able to watch the game in a bar in bangkok
unfortunately its the kings 80th - and all the bars are shut!!
staying at my mates - he has a super slow dial up connection
and a mac which won't let me log on2 arsenalTV

bbc online text updates are totally rubbish
anyone have any top tips....? which is the best online written coverage?

thanks

I normally read the sky sports website when im working updates are quite quick and pretty accurate too.

I think you'll struggle to get any video stream with a dial up connection, you might be better trying bbc five liev website and putting up with radio commentry

Yeah, for general updates like lineups, cards, substitutions and whatnot, the best is http://www.skysports.com/score_centre/0,20793,,00.html. Just click on "Football" and another window should pop up. It's all pretty self explanatory from there.

However, when I was in the States last year, I relied heavily on the Guardian Online text updates. Go to http://www.guardian.co.uk about 15 minutes before kick off, click on "Football" at the top, and it should be pretty clear where you need to go from there. The page refreshes about as fast as the person can type, so it isn't that bad at all, I actually find it very witty, too.

Hope this helps.

Yes, you do. It's fucking annoying.

I think you can access radio websites that play over the internet from anywhere ie. if Five Live broadcast over the nte then you can listen whether in UK or Australia not sure if it will be any good with dial up connection though. Sky Sports score centre text commentry might be your best bet

I'm almost certain it won't work mate. Are you sure you can't log on to Arsenal TV? Do you have a membership? Are there any wireless spots you can connect to?

Bollocks. I could have sworn I got on to it on a Mac when I was in New York this summer. Oh well, maybe they've changed it. Fear not, the text updates should serve you well.
