    No further televised pre-season games

    As predicted, LUTV has proven to be a big fat bag of the preverbial . Refunds now processed to all who bought the bundle or games individually.

    No way to watch the pre season games now , not even commentary from what i can tell. AR runs a sports media broadcasting company ffs....shambles.

    If anyone knows how to get at least commentary please post.

    Not sure he (or his companies), runs the broadcaster, just the company that owns/manages the rights to the various leagues/divisions, with local broadcasters responsible for the boots on the ground stuff (same as Sky and F1 for instance).

    Still bloody embarrassing that someone with his profile/connections can't get half a dozen pre-season games properly covered. Who knows what will happen when LUTV has to compete with real broadcasters!

    Maybe, showing the games was affecting season ticket sales.
    The streaming of the 2 games I saw kept looping, occasionally happens with BT Sport, so it must be a technical/technology issue.
    LUFC site will be running a text feed.
    Strange line-up again.

    Huffer, Pearce, Diaz, Klich, Shackleton, Vieira, Baker, Ideguchi, Rey, Clarke, Dalby.
    Subs: Blackman, Roberts, Edmondson, Stevens.

    I think this was similar to the York match

    Tinkerman comes to mind, has no idea yet who his best team is.

    I was hoping we'd be bedding in the league Line-up by now.

    Here's my assessment of the York Game I've copied and pasted it, as I've a feeling tonight's game will have a similar outcome.

    hope I'm proved wrong.

    Klich, Baker and Vieira played well. Ideguchi had his moments. Some of the young boys had reasonable games though showed a lack of intelligent movement in forward areas, often berated by Baker. Who with better players to service around him looks a good signing.
    Looks like it will take time getting used to this 3/3/1/3 formation and I don't know if we have the players to implement it. The 3 at the back looked so open, without others tracking back. Better teams than York could annihilate us. The high press was successful in winning back the ball in their half many times, though once we'd won it back failed to do anything with it against a packed defence. I fear decent counter attacking teams with pace upfront will be our undoing.

    26 minutes and 2:0 Oxford already. Obviously a step up from York.
