UPDATED: No midweek liveblog :(

By: Steve | September 23rd, 2008

Hala Madrid! Sorry to be the bearer of bad news, but tomorrow’s match against La Liga bottom-dwellers Sporting de Gijon will not be broadcast on Sky Sports, so alas, i won’t be liveblogging the match. However, do tune in on Saturday for the liveblog of Los Merengues’ visit to Real Betis.

UPDATE: reader Evo has alerted me to the fact that Sky will indeed be showing the match on Sky Sports 2 – except it’s on tape delay (for the Newcastle-Tottenham match!) so it’s not on til 10pm GMT. I’ll be watching the match, but I think it defeats the purpose of the liveblog if it’s not actually, you know, live.

However, I will bend to the will of our faithful readers if the desire is there for a liveblog. So let me know ASAP in the comments if you want to see one.

    “The midweek La Liga matches between Barcelona and Real Betis at the Nou Camp and Real Madrid against Sporting Gijon at the Bernabeu.”

    Hmph. This is the page i use to check if the matches are on: http://www.skysports.com/story/0,19528,12942,00.html

    Since it’s not listed, i didn’t think it was going to be shown. So it’s not cuz i’m lazy, it just didn’t appear to be on TV.

    That said, I did say “liveblog”, not “tape-delayblog”, so ha! besides, the fun thing about a liveblog is actually reading it while the action is going on…

    if you’re going to be watching a live feed, then my liveblog won’t come on til after the match is done, which defeats the purpose.
