A NowTV week pass will cover our first two games.

>skip the Newcastle game>

From the morning of the Wolves game, a month of both BT and NowTV passes will get you to the end of the season.

Does anybody know what radio coverage there might be?

Ta, what's the total damage for that?

14.99 for the week,
33.99 for the Now month,
25 for the BT month.

73.98 total, works out at £8.22 a game.

Given that there's 33 games on free-to-air, you'd expect us to be in maybe 3 of these. But given the televising hasn't been finalised and there's no pay-per-view options, well, as the old saying goes, that's how they get ya.

I like that you're keeping the references to prime era, '92-'94. Much like the last best Villa period.

Two free Now TV passes for season ticket holders from the club. Fair play.

Anyone know if these are only these games and only sky?
Could do with for BT, as said anything a bonus, good on the club.

Of course I’m sure any ST holders already with Sky should not pass their codes on to any one else that’s in need :)

The only thing BT seem to offer to non-subscribers is the month pass, so I doubt one of those would be forthcoming.

The cynic in me thinks that this is more Sky's doing than the club's. They toss us our first two games* for nowt, and if it goes well and captures the imagination, a good few thousand will cough up for a month's pass.

And as for your last paragraph, well, who's to know what'll possibly happen.

*they're day pass codes, they're normally good for whatever 24 hours you want. I might load up the first one in a bit, just to see if there is anything game(or client)-specific.

Not sure if other clubs are doing the same but whatever I think it’s a nice gesture.

A week pass would've been cheaper

They are only for Sky (NowTV), but they are not specific to the first two games. They're normal ones, and once you've registered a code you've got a year within which to activate the pass for your 24 hour stint.

For anybody unfamiliar with them, you activate the pass by selecting your sport to watch on NowTV, it'll then ask you if you wish to activate the pass that you remembered to register well before kick off in order to save valuable time and panicking, say yes, and away you go for 24 hours.

There's nothing popped up to suggest they're user specific either, so if you should find some, ahem, lying around, I think you'd be okay to use them. Sorry, but I've double bolted and posted a guard to the back of my lorry.

Every PL club is doing the two free NowTV passes for STHs, it would appear.
