Mucker1884 Posted February 4, 2019 Share Posted February 4, 2019 Looking at the fixtures on the OS, the Fore*t away game is accompanied by a basic television icon, and the words "Sky Sports". Without any help from anyone (honest!), I managed to work out all by myself what that denoted! However, the home game v Rotherham (Sat 30th March) has that very same TV icon, but this time with the words "Pitch International". That's not a term I'm familiar with, and to add to my confusion, this is of course a 3pm Saturday kick off (And we all know about the rules about Saturday 3pm and TV games!) Is this something that will only affect ex-pats living abroad? Can anyone enlighten me on this Pitch International malarkey? I'm not even sure why I'm asking, as I'm planning on being there in person anyway, seeing as we're at home, but it might be something that may interest me on another occasion in the future... for an away game... depending on replies, of course! What do others think? (I understand you have to put that, when starting a new thread!) ;-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Day Posted February 5, 2019 Share Posted February 5, 2019 Pitch International hold the rights abroad, one Saturday 3pm game is picked for TV and cannot be shown. This week it’s Forest v Brentford. https://www.efl.com/clubs-and-competitions/tv-games/international-games/ Looks like that game may have been picked.

SunnyRam Posted February 5, 2019 Share Posted February 5, 2019 Any games selected for Live Television usually appear here once the club are notified https://www.dcfc.co.uk/page/ramstv-faqs Rotherham fixture is showing on that list Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you are lucky enough to find yourself overseas on the 30th, you can watch in the following countries (Italy and Vatican City among others have been removed from the original list): Europe Albania Cyprus Faroe Islands Gibraltar Hungary Liechtenstein Luxembourg Malta Spain Ukraine Asia Afghanistan - Bangladesh Bhutan Brunei Cambodia East Timor Laos Malaysia Maldives Mongolia Myanmar Nepal North Korea Pakistan Philippines Singapore South Korea Sri Lanka Taiwan Oceania American Samoa Christmas Island Cocos Islands Cook Islands Federated States of Micronesia Fiji French Polynesia Guam Kiribati Marshall Islands Nauru New Caledonia Niue Norfolk Islands Northern Mariana Islands Palau Papua New Guinea Pitcairn Islands Samoa Solomon Islands Tokelau Tonga Tuvalu Vanuatu Wallis & Futuna https://www.dcfc.co.uk/page/ramstv-availability-for-tv-games?nocache=1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My top 3 would be, North Korea Afghanistan and Myanmar. All 3 of which have less crime,better views and nicer people than Rotherham, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
