UK sport in Ireland

[oldone1]

Is there any way I can watch football (already paid for in the UK) live in the Republic of Ireland?

SKY (already paid for in the UK) let me watch football live on my laptop in the Republic of Ireland using a SKY app.

I'm not understanding the question. Who have you paid to get football in the UK, that you then hope to view from Ireland?

[oldone1]

I have paid BT in the UK and would have expected that to cover live viewing in Ireland but so far I have not been able to watch live BT matches in Ireland on my Android phone or my laptop.

I have also paid SKY in the UK and can watch SKY live matches in Ireland!

Our rights don't allow us to share BT Sport content outside of the UK from our apps - this includes Ireland I'm afraid.

Interesting that SKY don't seeem to have the same problem!
