Hedge TV Live Streaming - Important Notice - By Steven Mew

The Club have been informed by the Scottish Football Association that following the removal of all covid restrictions, the 'blocked hours' provision for screening live football has been reintroduced and confirmed by UEFA.

The Scottish FA's 'blocked hours' provision, covers Saturdays between 2:45pm and 5:15pm from 30th July to the end of the 2022/23 season. In effect, the protection prohibits the transmission of matches within Scotland during the period of blocked hours.

Regretfully, as a result this means that the club will no longer be able to able to stream live matches via Hedge TV with immediate effect.

This development is bitterly disappointing as this service provided valuable source of revenue for the club. In addition, it also allowed supporters who were unable to attend the Glebe for a variety of reasons to watch the action.

Discussions between Brechin City FC and the relevant authorities are ongoing and we will issue any updates where possible, but as it stands we are unable to offer our live streaming service.

The club would like to thank all those who have supported us by utilising the streaming service and we will be in touch with those who have purchased advance tickets in due course.
