Ha, don't chase that rainbow too long!

It doesn't really matter where you watch it, as long as England gets their bums kicked by Argentina.

Hi Darren

I dont think the game is gonna be on finnish tele

i checked all the usuall suspects..viasat, canal+, yle 24 etc and couldnt see it. i think its on bbc1 so i dont reckon it'll be on skysports either. There is a way of watching all england games though the internet, but its not live you have to download the whole match of the day program (about 1.5 gb) and it usually finnishes downloading on the following day. But its always nice to see gary lineker and co in the match of the day studio rather than the canal+ commentators

Darren,

Try Outback Bar or Molly's. They have the equipment required to pick up terrestrial UK TV (as well as Sky Sport broadcasts). Only problem would be if there were competing antipodian or irish games on at a similar time, and they may have priority.

Same reply as in the England Pakistan cricket thread... you might find it on http://www.streamtvnow.com

I used it to watch Everton's venture into Europe as the games weren't shown in Finland. They streamed the games live from ITV2.

Its €2.50 a month to get the subscription, which guarantees you access. It is possible to watch it for free, but there are a limited number of seats.

Ha! Seeing as Wales are so very lowly ranked in world football (current FIFA ranking 73rd - below such esteemed footballing nations as Togo, Guatemala and Iraq!) I'm shocked a Welshie would feel qualified to comment on a high class football game. It's no great surprise he embarrassed himself.

Maybe a welsh person would be safer sticking to his national sport - Rugby Union. Oops...erm...maybe not seeing as big bad England are the current World Champions!!
