Sky sports + / now tv

Notice that the next 3 fixtures are showing with sky sports + on sky site.
although I no longer have sky, I have purchased day passes for previous games on now TV.
Does anybody know how sky sports + works on now tv? A few years ago when they did the red button to select a game, it wouldn’t work on now.
wondering if sports + is like the old red button games or it will show the CAFC match by default.
maybe a silly question but I cancelled sky years ago so not sure how sports + works..
thank you

I use Now TV. When you click on sports and scroll down there is normally a big EFL box - click on that and any selected EFL games are listed.2

@Phantom_User If you're definitely going to be watching the next few games they're showing, don't buy a day pass, get a month pass. As far as I can tell, in the next month we're on Sky+ for:
Tues 4th March - Barnsley (H)
Sat 8th March - Stockport (A)
Tues 11th March - Crawley (A)
Sat 29th March - Huddersfield (H)
Tues 1st April - Mansfield (A)Given a day pass is £14.99 and a month pass is £34.99, you only need to watch 3 games out of those to make the month pass better value for money. In addition, you may find that if you cancel at the end of that month then they offer you a cheap deal - I'm currently on a £17.99 month pass, so I only need 2 games a month to make it a viable option. Just make sure you set a reminder a couple of days before so you don't get automatically charged for the next month.Also, you may find it helpful to bookmark the link below to go straight to League One rather than having to scroll past all the other stuff first:8 -
I can second this! I'm on a 6 month deal at £17.99 a month - which given the Charlton away games, premier league and the Formula One is pretty good I think. Every time it comes to renewal I click cancel and then they keep offering reduced charges until you accept!aliwibble said:@Phantom_User If you're definitely going to be watching the next few games they're showing, don't buy a day pass, get a month pass.

looks like I’ll def be getting my monies worth… hopefully !0 -
Does my head in that you can't watch the SkySports+ games on SkyGo.2

It's such a pain and I'm amazed more of a fuss hasn't been kicked up. I know you can watch on the Sky Sports app but I don't want to watch on my phone!Pelling1993 said:Does my head in that you can't watch the SkySports+ games on SkyGo.0 -
I find you do need to turn off goal notifications on your mobile from other sites given the small time lag between those and the Sky stream.1

I don't follow - what device do you watch Sky Go on that you cant use Now?Pelling1993 said:Does my head in that you can't watch the SkySports+ games on SkyGo.0 -
I watch other things via SkyGo on a laptop when not at homevalleynick66 said:

OK - so you just need the NOW app as well on your laptop I guess is what you mean?fenaddick said:

No they're different services. My Sky subscription doesn't give me access to the NOW platform. I can watch all Sky things on Sky Go EXCEPT Sky Sports + which you can only access on your Sky box/TV, via NOW or via the Sky Sports app which is only available for phones/tablets. Basically watching on a laptop is impossible without finding a dodgy stream or using a VPN to pay the clubvalleynick66 said:

I see. I don’t understand why if you have a sky subscription you can’t use that to across Now which I think you are saying is effectively your gripe.fenaddick said:

I’ve got Sky but pay for Charlton TV when the games are on both. The commentators on Sky are bloody woeful and you can’t beat a bit of Tel, Greg and Brownie.1

You can use NOW on a laptop, but I can understand you objecting to paying Sky twice.fenaddick said:

But if you'll only watch three then cheaper via cafc TV with a vpn.Phantom_User said:
