Not entirely sure what the plans are at this stage but if there isn’t some sort of streaming service, paid or otherwise, to watch the games this season then it will feel like a big backward step!

Hope there isn’t something planned that’s yet to be announced!

I hope so to.
Last season as part of 777's sinking ship they invested alot of money in media and production.
It's ashame to see that all evaporate and their be no sky coverage.

My guess is that with the league not officially starting until November perhaps their not going to start coverage until after the Trophy for Sky.
Although I do hope they keep the YouTube coverage as it was good for watching my teams away matches.

You could always go the whole way and manage to get to a few away games for your team. Nix were planning  to run a coach for the vast majority of away games for this season. However that was before everything went down  the plughole during the summer. Personally still hoping to get to at least half the away games this season..... see you there!!

I'm not sure why, but I've been assuming a 2022-23 style arrangement, with home clubs responsible for streaming coverage. That said, the existence of a SLB youtube channel is hopeful.

Riders used to allow fans to pay to travel to away games on same coach. Don't know if they still do.

No doubt covid would have stopped that initially


Fans at the front. Players at the back.

Good way to subsidise costs

I also think the home team gives the away team a certain amount of foc tickets to sell to subsidise travel costs

I realise this is all small time once you have London Lions teams arrive on the scene with huge salaries

Chalk and cheese I guess

Last season that same arrangements for coach travel with squad/ supporters sharing the coach travel. Several times it was hard to get a seat as it proved so popular. Not sure but there were talks about a separate supporters coach for some games.
Everyone has seen amount of interest in the Nix games, I know there were the finals ( both of them)!!!! with hundreds arriving but Nix have always hab away support for them.

On the " free " ticket observations it's always disappointing when away support gets stuck out of the way in poor seats, Nix arrangements are open seating allowing away supporters to sit together behind their team bench ( if they can get away from Cheshire Oaks Outlet Village in time for the tip off).

Lions saying on their home game ticket Promo on social media that the game will be on YouTube.
