I have a crap old TV and my mates all have swanky smart ones. But the smarts mean they are 20-90s behind live matches. So in the group chat I am a genius with my comments because I see the future.

@fesshole That delay is down to how they're watching, not that they're necessarily using a smart TV.

Watching DTT (via an aerial, aka Freeview) on a smart TV isn't significantly more delayed than watching it on a dumb TV. Watching anything from a streamer (iPlayer, NowTV etc.), however, will be very delayed.

@gilester45 @fesshole

there's a variation of a maybe 0,25 - 0,5s lag between DTT TV sets all in the same building (I noticed it when I worked on maintenance in a senior home and there was sportsball or something else popular that everyone was watching in their rooms and I was walking down the corridors), but for whole seconds delay thats more likely due to streaming services..

I've always preferred to get my sporting news directly from the ticker tape machine.

@fesshole This is such a quintessentially British observation. 😂 On a side note, it's also not a fess.

@fesshole have you ever considered making facts up just so they get to experience tremendous relief?
