At least for the Autumn Internationals:-0 :-0 :-| :-| :-( :-(

Amazon Prime has won the exclusive Live TV Broadcasting rights to this year's Autumn Test Rugby :-( ....which would make Our Rugby Gang's Live Radio Jem;-) Broadcasting impossible for most of us.

Thanks to all of you that joined in the silliness and banter while we watched the Rugby Union Tests together over the last 8 years <3
Also to those who, though they didn't post on the threads, took the time to "tune in" and read up on the rugby. <3

HOPEFULLY THEY WILL LEAVE THE SIX NATIONS ALONE :-|

Jem, you can always glue yourself to a local motorway in protest ;-)

Seriously though, although I didn't post on the threads I did enjoy reading the various posts

That's a shame, Jem.

I wonder if Amazon will be paying full tax?

Thanks Allan,
I'm thinking of chaining myself draped in the Radio Jem flag to the gates of the Principality Stadium Cardiff :-0
Displaying a big placard with Radio Jem's theme song title in large letters....
YMA O HYD (Still Here) ...but only if you subscribe to Amazon Prime :-| :-|
How very dare they sell their fans out!!! :-|

Thanks Maggie :-)
We already have Sky and Sky Sports and I'm not subscribing to Amazon on principle :-|
We have Sky Sports for my husband's footy but BT Sports and others are getting the games in turns. I think they are in cahoots with each other :-|

Pat, thanks for letting me know this sad news. Poor boy was so young and with 2 children :-(
I think we watched him play with the Maori All Blacks last year.

Linda, where have you been we've missed you :-)
There's a possibility that I could get it on the plug in thingie my daughter gave me. She has Amazon Prime with a family subs? Something like that.
But without Fly, Pat and the rest it wouldn't be the same :-(

Ooooo you is cheeky Blodwen :-0
Tell her Fly :-|
I quite like knitting anyway :-D
