John,
Yes Radio Leeds cannot broadcast Leeds games over the internet.
Dunno if five live will let you listen in from overseas if not you might have to sign up for LUTV & Radio http://www.sport247.tv/lufc/ which does provide live commentary over t'internet for £4 a month.
Cheers
Paul

I am in Canada.  I have checked out the BBC Radio Leeds Live At Five site....they tell me they don't stream on Internet because they only have the broadcast rights for the U.K.  Are they correct???  I was counting on listening......no TV coverage here except in the occasional pub in Vancouver......and I'm out in the boonies.
 
Grrrrr.

Awful news from Thailand:

UBC our bastard satellite provider have suddenly decided not to broadcast the match, after showing the playoff finals for the last n years when useless shitearse teams were in them!

The game will be shown on Thai TV, but they, the stupid pillocks, are for some reason going to show it on a one hour delay!

AGONY FOR THE BANGKOK KHOW!

I cannot decide what to do.  Normally, of course, I would just keep the computer and radio off and watch the game an hour late, but after all these days and weeks (well two years, actually) of desperately hoping, i can't bear the thought of even one extra minute going by without me knowing our fate.

After grappling with all the alternatives, I am leaning towards this strategy:
Listen to the 1st half on LUTV Radio Leeds.  Then watch the first half.  At halftime, go straight to livescore and find out the result.  then watch the second half, whilst either knocking back the champagne or choking back the tears.  But waht if livescore tells me it's in extra time or gone to pens?

OH GOD...............I CAN'T STAND THIS!
