Re: Football 20/21
On the Watford Website under Q & A it says ...
Q. I don’t have a smartphone or device that’s able to download the Watford FC app. Can I still watch?
A. Yes, you will be able to access Hive Live using a laptop/PC via the Watford FC website. For the best viewing experience on a smart device, we recommend using the free club app (search ‘Watford FC’ in your app store).
I assume therefore that one could potentially load the appropriate Teams App into the TV
as per Amazon and Prime etc and then to simply select it after making the payment ?

Re: Football 20/21
I'm surprised at that Moby as I can "transfer" the Zoom app from both my iPad and MacBook to my Smart tv quite easily via the Airplay and Handoff feature in the settings on both devices. What you then get is the same screen as on your mobile device on your tv screen so you can navigate the app through your device - can't believe I'm on the Footy threadManoverboard wrote: 11 Oct 2020, 11:08Q.

Re: Football 20/21
Moby I googled how to transfer screen info from smart phone onto a TV, and there is quite a bit of data, bluetooth seems the likeliest for an android phone, but you need your TV to be bluetooth enabled, which it seems most new ones are.Manoverboard wrote: 12 Oct 2020, 09:09I can't keep track of you techy types using mysterious names, will have to await the return of son No 2 for a few pointersJan Rosser wrote: 11 Oct 2020, 12:22I'm surprised at that Moby as I can "transfer" the Zoom app from both my iPad and MacBook to my Smart tv quite easily via the Airplay and Handoff feature in the settings on both devices.

Is that because it's an android or it belongs to Mobietta or both?

Just to show that no one can watch the Derby vs Watford except those with, in this instance, SKY.

I don't think that's very nice towny. I thought he had always been like that (especially when the 'Ornets lose!!!).

Re: Football 20/21
Not really ... a draw was a decent enough result against the Cherries who are still a very strong team but they would have been down to nine men and given away a penalty if VAR had played a part at this level ... we have 14 points from 7 games and are sitting in third spot with seven more Prem League players yet to return from injury so no complaints at all from me.

Re: Football 20/21
We did a smash and grab raid on Arsenal. Rodgers got his tactics absolutely right against the Gooners. It wasn't very pretty but a good job considering we have Ricardo, Soyuncu and Ndidi out and Vardy and Maddison coming back from injury. We have done well to be where we are but looking forward to having a full strength team. The problem for Rodgers is who to drop as many have stood up to the plate.
You need to watch Watford. Take it from me they have a habit of scoring in the last minutes of the game.
