Thank scott21. I got that at the start of the year. Am I expected to stick it in my fridge or something? My point is, I’m a hardcore A-League fan, been so since day zero. I support no other league or sport. I know games are on but honestly I have no idea who is playing who or what the summer football festival schedule was. I see no A-League advertising anywhere outside official emails. Lord knows what the less dedicated fam has visibility of...

+xYou can just check on the Internet..... Or download an app It is really that simple, hell even if you are the laziest person around, all it takes is typing in "A-League" in google and you have all the fixtures for the week, literally takes two or 3 seconds depending on how quick you can type. I'm not even a "Hardcore" fan this season, couldn't care less about watching other teams unless there is nothing else on and still manage to know when all the games are on.

+x+x+xYep this whole dont know its on argument is rubbish...from a melbourne point of view all the fta news bulletins preview victory and city games, channel 9, 7 and 10 would all be at training the day before a game. If you have fox as well you should pretty much have enough to go on by channel surfing alone. If you're on social media then you have the hattrick. If you arent going you dont care, if you arsnt watching on tv its because something you find better is on. Even if you're in the old fart category newspapers have you covered, hell even the ethnic papers covers it all. Its almost impossibls to not know! As someone who stopped watching FTA (not even plugged in anymore) and doesn't want to pay $500 a year to Foxtel for the rest of the crap they put out, the last piece would be the radio, and you can be sure if it's not AFL then Adelaide media doesn't give a fuck about United let alone the rest of the league. Leaves me to my own devices How do you get by without TV in the 21st century? No news, series, documentaries, sport, nothing? No wonder you don't know when the a-league's on. I imagine there'd be many other things you miss out on by choosing to live like that. Must be terribly boring. It's not really something you should be proud of. I advise plugging your TV back in. Foxtel is insultingly expensive, but at least get Netflix or something! Aha I love the incredulity in this post. I personally do watch Netflix and stream United games but the fact your mind can't comprehend a world without television is fantastic. Everyone needs a passion I guess. I could easily survive with books + internet news/science/culture sites and in fact I wish I wasn't so lazy and did just that instead of spending Sunday nights scratching my arse watching Blacklist wondering whether I do actually like it or I just like James Spader's twitch face acting.

I'm sure you could survive with just books and the internet, but I have no idea why you would want to. Reading books and watching TV don't need to be mutually exclusive. Personally, I sometimes like passively watching the news or a science documentary without having to click through articles and videos. I also like the cricket, tennis, premier league. Why would I want to stream that shit if I can just turn on the TV and watch the coverage? I'm not saying anyone should watch it 24 hours a day, but there's no doubt that it can be a pretty useful device. It makes no sense to never watch it seemingly out of some old-fart principle. It's kinda stupid.

Because everything you've just listed can be done just as well and easily streamed through the internet than just browsing through the extremely limited platform that is Australian Free to Air TV.
