Listening to World Cup in Israel

stephen2209

I am currently on holiday in Jerusalem & would like to listen to English commentary for the games via my laptop. I have already spent a small fortune paying for a T.V. and the cable rights for the game. As I don't speak Hebrew and have no intention of learning, I would like to understand what is going on during the games. All the English radio stations I have tried do not have the rights to broadcast the games abroad. All help would be greatly appreciated :wall:

Try this, https://www.endicosoft.com it picks up hundreds of global radio stations.

You want the Internet Radio Toolbar, comes with a bit of advertising but otherwise free.

Thanks, but unfortunately will not play radio 5 live and could not find any other English speaking radio station with the World Cup.

Have you tried the BBC World Service? I know you can pick that up in Israel but don't know what their schedule is. You can check here:

Hope you have a nice holiday!

Hmmm, stuck on this one I'm afraid. I would pop into one of the really posh hotels (if you're not staying in one already) and ask the concierge. He must have had requests for this information already from guests.
