Whilst the likes of futbol24 and livescore may be very slightly faster. They have no detail or scorer.

Flashscore does. By far the best live score site available (after Bet365 but they don't give goalscorers)

Slightly unrelated but does anyone have any idea on how Bet365 update pretty much every single game right down to the detail of which side has the ball/on the attack/ has a throw in.

I've recently start going to the Slavia matches with the guy that does this for Bet365 and a couple of other betting sites for the Czech league. Am sure I can make a few quid out of it some way

They don't give goalscorers immediately. They wait for that to be confirmed elsewhere usually.

Whilst the likes of futbol24 and livescore may be very slightly faster. They have no detail or scorer. They usually wait for us (Extratime) to confirm the scorer and then copy. For proof of this, any time we make a mistake, most of the live score type sites replicate it.

In the old days it was Aertel they would all copy.. and like extra time now, if there was a mistake there, there was a mistake everywhere else. Personally, I go with Extra time. Anything on the LOI blog's has been tweeted by someone else minutes earlier anyway.

So they were copying Errortel, that was never a good idea!

Thanks for the info on Futbol24, just downloaded the android app now & it looks very good.

The "live feeds" provided by the people at games are now more detailed than just "Attack" and "Dangerous Attack" they give details of throws, fouls, cards, corners etc - this information is done for a company (Runningball is one of them) and is then the service is sold to bookmakers. So this company could pay one person €100 for covering the match and then sell that on to numerous bookmakers.

Bet365 just feed all this information on to their website.

I knew a lad that use to do it in OP,he had to give an almost full running commentary on the match but didnt have to mention the players names just what team had the ball,throw ins,corners,free kicks & positions of same etc...it would do your nut in listening to him. "Suspend,suspend,suspend" when there was a peno or a dangerous free kick Gave it up after 3 games.Think a Chinese lad does it now?
