I logged in earlier and was waiting for the game to start. Just as the game was about to start I tried to log in to the TV but... Zilch! Glad I logged in early on the laptop. For what it's worth, we should be 3-0 up

Lost the stream for a minute or two after their goal so I don’t know who was at fault! These are rubbish we should have scored at least 2

I’ve had to link my laptop to my tv because the tv wouldn’t run on the website. Works find on my laptop

The disappointing thing here, other than the score, is how since they scored we’ve regressed hugely. Look totally deflated.

FA Player is absolute garbage - typical FA amateurish attempt. At least hesgoal.com is working.

Other than the stream going off after their goal I’ve not had any issues

Used my laptop and connected it to the TV- thanks for the advice.
Had about 2 mins just before half time where the stream dropped out. Apart from that it was fine and I also learnt that my laptop battery lasts 120mins.

So not too bad an experience, but can’t grumble it was free and I got to watch the game.

Feedback to FA Player team:

Greetings,As promised this is my feedback on Saturdays viewing experience using the FA player:-
Match watched: Burnley vs MK Dons
Location: Chester, UK.
Broadband: BT Fibre, speed checked during viewing 65mbps. Router is only around 2 months old.
Login: There is a delay when logging in and I had to log in three times before being successful on my Samsung Galaxy phone. I logged in via a HP Chromebook and this was successful on the first attempt. My wife logged in via her Apple Ipad and was also successful on the first attempt.
Picture clarity and sound: Chromebook very good. Samsung phone intermittent reception so the viewing experience was compromised from the outset. The Ipad had a good picture but no sound??
Screen mirroring to Samsung TV: The Ipad was connected via an Apple TV box and the picture was clear without any issues other than a 2 minute break in transmission just after MK Dons scored. No sound available throughout.
Comments: The Chromebook was undoubtedly the best way to view the match but there was a lag between its reception and that of the Ipad because I connected the Chromebook sound via a bluetooth speaker but the lag was such that it was impossible to watch the match on a large screen TV via an Ipad and listen to the commentary via reception on a Chromebook.There does appear to be a reception issue between the various OS with Chrome being the best and Android the worst with IOS in the middle.
Best wishes,

Cast (screen share) from my phone (Samsung S9+) to TV (Samsung 43") apart from where it dropped for 2 minutes after they scored... and a couple of freezing moments no problems... I was told it wouldn't work properly but it did...

Cast from iPhone to chromecast on Samsung tv. Great picture and decent presentation. Did lose transmission for about 1 minute after their goal. Overall very satisfied especially as it was free. App is a bit confusing as it prioritises women’s football but easy enough to find men’s fa cup section.

I watched it on my computer and had just two problems.

1 went off immediately after their goal but was clearly their problem because a holding page went up

2 the commentator was dire

Apart from that short period when it went down and that bloody commentator I had no problem with it.

It was on a par with the Carabao PPV app but £10 cheaper.
