    Does this work for sky Ireland customers? Any google search I find is outdated. Nothing happens when I press the red button but I know there is a match on currently

    I have mine added into the extra channels via the Manual Tuning.

    Same place you'd have your ITV channels, etc.

    Frequency and how to add it should be on the sticky on the top of the thread.

    The red button channel can be tuned in as an extra channel. You can get the frequency here

    The red button itself doesn't work outside the UK

    Red button has been disabled on BBC channels for ROI viewers since way back in 2012.

    The streams can still be manually tuned in on Sky satellite platforms (not Stream) there is a sticky in this forum that will tell you how.

    A bit late now but the Everton v Peterborough game was also on Premier Sports.

    There will be two more FA Cup games on the Red Button. At Leeds on Saturday and Newcastle on Sunday. BBC One Wales had Sheffield United v Cardiff tonight. Southampton v Swansea will be on Sunday.
