FA Cup: How to watch and listen to third round on the BBC this weekend

The BBC will broadcast all 22 ties in the third round of the FA Cup live on its television channels, with matches starting at 12:15 GMT on Saturday and 12:00 GMT on Sunday. In addition to these televised matches, the BBC Sport website, BBC Sounds, and various radio stations will also provide live commentary, highlights, and updates.

For those unable to watch on TV or listen on the radio, there are plenty of options available. You can tune into BBC Radio 5 Live for a mix of local and national coverage. Alternatively, you can stream the matches through the BBC Sport app, or use smart speakers by asking "play Sports Extra" or your local BBC radio station.

The BBC also provides live updates on social media, so be sure to follow them for behind-the-scenes content and analysis from expert pundits.

I think it's awesome that the BBC is making all FA Cup ties available online πŸ“ΊπŸ’»! It's gonna be a super busy weekend with 22 matches in just two days πŸ˜…. I'm actually planning on having friends over for one of the games and we'll probably watch it together, but now we can also follow the scores and updates on our phones while we're watching ⌚️.

πŸ€” so the bbc is just gonna drop all these streaming options everywhere? like, what's the point of even having a website if i can just stream it from my phone πŸ“±? and whats with the 'experts' on social media? are they getting paid to say stuff? πŸ€‘ also, dont they have enough resources already 🀯. and what about those who cant afford a smart speaker or an app subscription? πŸ€‘ all these extra options just seem like a way to make money off people's football fandom πŸ’Έ
 
πŸ‘ Ah, the FA Cup is always a highlight of the football season! I'm loving that the BBC is giving us all access to the action, whether we're at home or on-the-go πŸ“±πŸŸοΈ. The variety of options for live commentary and updates is really impressive - can't wait to catch some matches with friends over the weekend ⏰. And nice move by the BBC for using smart speakers, so easy peasy to get in on the action without having to switch between devices πŸ”Š. Will definitely be tuning in to see my team make a run for it... fingers crossed 🀞!

Ugh, another over-reliance on streaming 🀯... I mean, who needs multiple options when you've got a decent internet connection?

Man, remember when the FA Cup was just a small tournament in England? Now it's like the whole country is into it. I'm stoked they're broadcasting all 22 ties live - back in my day, we had to wait till Monday morning for highlights. And yeah, having options on BBC Radio 5 Live and the app is sick... but you know what would've been even better? Being able to record them on VHS so we could watch 'em later πŸ“ΌπŸ‘€
 
The decision to broadcast all 22 ties in the third round of the FA Cup live on TV channels is a welcome move by the BBC πŸ“Ί! It's excellent to see the network providing multiple avenues for fans to engage with the competition, whether that's through traditional television broadcasts or more modern streaming options like the BBC Sport app. The addition of social media updates will also keep enthusiasts informed and entertained throughout the matches πŸ“±.

I think it's a testament to the growing popularity and accessibility of football in the UK that the BBC is able to offer such a wide range of coverage 🌎. By providing live commentary, highlights, and analysis on various platforms, the BBC is catering to diverse viewing habits and ensuring that everyone can enjoy the FA Cup experience, regardless of their location or preferred means of consumption πŸ“».
 
πŸ“Ί just another reason why I'm gonna stay home this weekend πŸ›‹οΈ don't need all that noise and distractions πŸ™…β€β™‚οΈ but hey at least we've got options if we wanna watch some footy πŸ‘ the tech is so advanced now, can even ask Alexa to play sports for me πŸ˜‚
