Streaming allows greater control over content .... the streams are not available on PCs and MACs😉

Re: Cant watch skysports+ championship games on laptop.
I'm afraid it is not possible to view these extra games on a laptop as you can only watch what is being shown on channels 403 and 412.
To watch the extra games you need a phone or tablet so you can install the Sky Sports app on it as is where these extra streaming games are along with Sky Q, Sky Glass and Stream.

We could also add Chromebooks and many other types of device that do not support the necessary streaming app😂

Watching Sky Sports+ on PC
Today I wanted to watch Middlesbrough v Swansea EFL game on my PC as I'm away from home. However I could not find a way to watch this game. I downloaded the Sky Sports App for Windows but when I opened it I was directed to a web page that seemed to suggest I "upgraded' my subscription to add Now TV. Is this the only way to watch a game broadcast on Sky Sports+ that is not the main game that day? Why should I have to pay again to watch something I already pay for? I did manage to watch through my Android Tablet and the Sky Sports App but I would prefer to watch on a larger PC screen.
Can anyone tell me if I'm missing something?

Re: Watching Sky Sports+ on PC
Thanks for the quick response but why has it been set up like this? Are there plans to make the "streams" available on PC?

@legoman2608 This is the way sky has decided to go and there are no current plans to make it available on desktop platforms

Watching Rugby League on Sky Sports
I only want to watch rugby league and so subscribed to Action/Arena and could watch every game every week. With the move to Sky Sports+ I had to upgrade my subscription to get the new channel and continue watching all games.
I watch on a Windows PC and found out of Friday night that I can't watch the games hidden behind the red button!
Why can't I watch the streamed content on my PC?
Feeling ripped-off - i'm now paying more to see fewer games.

Re: Watching Rugby League on Sky Sports
@Peter+Benn all you can really do is send your feedback/complaint to the Viewer Relations Team by emailing them at viewerR@sky.uk .
If many customers complain or provide feedback with common themes it may hopefully encourage Sky to rethink the current implementation of the Sky Sports + service.

Re: Watching Sky Sports+ on PC
Hi, would you be able to watch the SkySports+ extra streams on a console (ie. Xbox) if you downloaded the official app? Might be a way to use a bigger monitor.
TIA 🙂
