    Magners League is covered by BBC2 Wales and S4C. You wont find much in the way of live golf outside of Sky Sports.

    Golf highlights can be found on CNBC at the weekend.Sky has the live stuff pretty much tied up bar one or two tournaments that the BBC have (The Open I think)

    If you get a HD Freesat box you'll get the 6 Nations and The Masters on BBC in definition. They have The Open as well. Great coverage of Wimbledon too.

    As others have mentioned lots of Rugby on the Welsh channels.

    You're missing Sgorio on S4C on a Monday night. Highlights of Spanish, Italian and Welsh top flight matches. The only FTA show that I know of that does La Liga and Serie A highlights.

    Don't forget BBC Alba for ML rugby as well. Unsure about RL on ITV4 - have ITV signed a new contract as Super League highlights have been on BBC last few seasons?

    Rugby League highlights on BBC not ITV 4.

    I also forgot to add Rugby Heineken Cup highlights on (ITV4/S4C)
    and Club TV (Celtic/Rangers), along with delayed coverage of an SPL game (BBC Alba)

    O and Classic World of Sport, Wrestling (Loved it when I was young) on (Men and Movies)

    Ban for the next person that mentions the word "streams" and isn't referring to water.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,711 ✭✭✭fat-tony


    You serious icdg?
    The "Red Button" service on BBC provides access to sporting events or music programmes. The channels are named as STREAM-0 to STREAM-6 and I'm sure that is what the posters are referring to.:)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,613 ✭✭✭evilivor


    Forgo to mention, live Tour de France and extensive highlights of same on ITV4.
