Rounding the Cape

November 17, 2009 3:30 AM

Is there a website where I can (legally or otherwise) watch the France v Ireland World Cup Qualifier Playoff?

Should Ireland qualify, me and three mates are going to South Africa for a month to watch Ireland's three group matches and then a match from each stage including the final. Woot.

I'm in Australia and we don't get that match live except on pay channel which I can't access.

Can you help?

Best answer: I won't link them but search google for eplsite, p2p4u, iraqgoals or atdhe.

In addition, you can try googling p2p forum soccer.

RTE have just announced that they have the rights, and although their RTE player is only supposed to be available here I'm sure that there are ways around that. Proxies or summat, I'd guess having been told similar things about getting access to the Beeb but I have no idea how they work.

Sky Sports have just bought the rights to the game, you should be able to see it no problem.
