    Champions League on the radio

    Does anybody know where I can get a radio braodcast of the Champions League, over the internet while working away from home. last night I tried to hook my sons laptop up to radio 5 for the Liverpool Chelsea game but it wouldn't work as it knew we were overseas.
    Rule Number 1 - Assuming that you have a valid contract in place always try to get your poo onto your timesheet, provided that the timesheet is valid for your current contract and covers the period of time that you are billing for.

    I preferred version 1!

    Daft question. Have you tried pointing your browser to a uk public proxy server and trying that way?
    If your company is the best place to work in, for a mere £500 p/d, you can advertise here.

            That isn't an option today as I'm in Geneva and not heading back until next weekend. Also it's for my son. The commentary is better on the radio that you get on the TV so he prefers that.

              On another point, how good does the web connection have to be at the remote end? I've no probs with hooking it up at home on my return, but I have no idea as to how much bandwidth I'd need to watch stuff remotely.

                Well you might get German TV in Geneva and if so then the ManU game is live on SAT-1 and both games are live on Premiere but that's digital and you'll have to find somewhere that has it (I don't think Switzerland does.)
                Brexit is having a wee in the middle of the room at a house party because nobody is talking to you, and then complaining about the smell.

                  from what I've found out if you can watch a youtube video without it stuttering then you should be able to watch slingbox, i suppose it depends on the quality/resolution that you wish to view the image.

                  I'll confirm this next week as I've just gone and bought a Media Center Extender and a Slingbox and will be setting it up this weekend.

                  It can't be that bandwidth intensive as you can also watch it on windows mobile phones with a 3G connection.
