Red button games on sky

Post by dermotdermot » Tue Oct 04, 2022 10:20 pm

Okay, so a friend has given me access to his sky account in return for me giving him access to my BT account. I notice that tomorrows game is a red button game. I have to watch it on the computer but I can’t seem to see a red button. Does anyone know how I can watch it? For instance I tuned in and caught the last ten minutes of Cardiff and Blackburn but couldn’t see how I could catch the other games tonight. Does anyone have an answer?

Do you mean his skygo login? It should be there. I’ve used it on holiday.
The red button was only on channel 403 tonight and not channel 401, I believe this is standard with 403 being the EFL channel

I just have the sky icon on the the screen and click on it. I have his password. I think that’s how I must have installed it in the first place.

Just had a look on Sky and it says not available on Sky Go but can get it on the Sky Sports App.

Yes you need to download the app and login through that to watch the red button games. This can only be done on a mobile. You used to be able to download the PC app and watch red button games through that but it appears they have taken that feature away which is annoying.
