Streaming - DAZN

DAZN are going to get a shock when the NL's past figures are going to be nowhere near reality now it's moving to a platform that will not allow VPN.

It seems incredibly daft that people who have always been willing to pay will now have to resort to piracy.

The whole things daft and draconian, it doesnt affect attendances, and there are plenty of people who dont live near there teams anymore or are older or infirmed who cant watch their team despite wanting to pay, totally nonsensical especially at this level.
 
For what it's worth...

I had a play this morning and as others have discovered, my usual VPN route failed when I tried to login to DAZN.

I then tried ExpressVPN, set to teleport me to the USA, and that let me in and I've set up my DAZN account.

I may still come a cropper when it comes to payment, but progress at least.

Good stuff @fatgrandad, ExpressVPN is one of those mentioned in the article I posted earlier. I guess the next hurdle will be your address? (see post 19).
 
I came across this article just now. Does anyone on here use Nord VPN, and if they do can they access DAZN?

I use Nord and I can currently access the site from Germany. My NLTV subscription doesn't cancel until 10th Nov so I'm hoping to still use it for tomorrow. I'll try using DAZN after tomorrow

(AT the risk of sounding a tad smug) perhaps the VPN brigade will get a taste if how I felt last Sat.when not only couldn't I see our cup game with Charlton ,I could even listen to BBC Essex online as that was n't available internationally!


FWIW,I'd 've thought that the demand for Tues.night games will increase (even at a greater price).


Also FWIW managed to change my password & switch to DAZN easily yesterday.Hopefully I won't have any reception problems later but then I don't have a VPN!

You realise we all didn't get Eastleigh away streamed too, right? FA Cup R1 streaming got killed a few years ago when everyone threw a wobbly at the FA for streaming games on bookmaker sites abroad.

Odd to feel smug at others being unable to watch games but you do you.

Tuesday games will be available to UK users too.

That's why I mentioned it.

Thanks dinosaur, revelling in supporters not being able to pay and watch there own team.
Of course if it’s shown on IPTV for free as normal then it will double ruin your day.
If they can get round all the Sky and Bt games then I’m sure they will crack the DAZN nonsense
 
I recently spoke to a supporter of another club, who told me that supporters should just go to the games instead of moaning about them not being available online or on TV. He said proper fans go to matches. As I told him, everyone's situation is different. I would go to every game, but being a Southend supporter who lives in Birmingham, with a son who has disabilities, it never going to to possible to go to every match. Online access is a godsend.
 
One way or another we should know the art of the streaming possibilities before Altrincham away next Saturday.
 
On the advert it says blackout games available from 5:15 so possible to watch on a slight delay if can avoid the results.

Exactly this, when I was a teen with no commitments and lived nearby I had a season ticket. Family, work, distance, being poor and a few other personal factors mean I can only go to a handful of games per season.

If I can stream games then I go to 5 games a season in person and pay NLTV/DAZN £25 a month to watch the other 41 games, in total I see 46 games and have paid to watch 46 games. If I can't stream I go to 5 games, I see 5 games and pay to watch 5 games.

The lack of ability to stream games does not change my ability to only go to 5 games it just diminishes the connection to the club I grew up watching and means my kids can't see Southend play.. so they'll watch whoever is shown on TV the most and as I touched on in another thread in changing times a lot of clubs lost their fanbase to the top tier for this very reason easy access to Premier League from the comfort of your sofa but you can't watch your local team unless you can afford £20+ a ticket per person and to get everyone there.
