Morning all,
New football season coming up and i now work later shifts meaning i will be missing the evening football. I really want to be able to record and relax and watch when i get home but struggling to find a resonably priced option
BT TV i can not get as i have gigaclear 1gb internet and seems you can only use BT broadband with it and Sky the only way to record shows is with sky Q and a £89pm cost just to watch in HD with a dish stuck to the side of my house which i would prefer not to have. Sky glass and stream dont record it seems
Any other options im missing?

sorted byIf you already have broadband with someone else though I guess your hands are a bit tied. (edited)
BT TV Pro (Requires BT Internet)
Virgin TV 360 (Requires Virgin Media internet for new customers)
Sky Q (Requires dish, and is expensive)
All other services rely on streaming and won't allow recording.
So if you don't want Sky, I think the only option will be to ditch your current ISP and move to BT or Virgin Media and take their TV.
We're 12 or 13 miles away from Virgin's cable network for example.
However for people with BT Broadband, you should be able to get this package cheaper via BT.
The content you get is summarised by Discovery plus as:
Edit: On Discovery Plus you can watch the replays so it isn't recorded as such but you still have access to a replay. (edited)
What channel are they on?
Thanks
Bit of an expense to start, but all the kit is yours, and can be used elsewhere, and again
Still expensive though.
