Seasonal and monthly passes for Watford FC’s Hive Live match streaming service are now available to buy, ahead of the impending Sky Bet Championship campaign.

Following the successful trial run of the video service for the Hornets’ final pre-season outing against Southampton last Saturday, fans are now able to finalise their preparations for 2022/23 by signing up to the club’s audio or visual coverage.

With Jon Marks and Watford legend Tommy Mooney on commentary duties, the show - that will start approximately 15 minutes before each game - will bring you live coverage of the match as well as expert punditry and analysis.

Fans are reminded that the service is restricted compared to the 2020/21 season, when broadcast regulations were relaxed due to the Covid-19 pandemic, and UK-based supporters could watch a large number of fixtures as the Golden Boys roared to promotion.

This time around, the ability for us to stream video domestically (includes UK, Republic of Ireland, Jersey, Guernsey and Isle of Man) is reduced due to the reinstatement of the Saturday 3pm blackout, which bars the live broadcast of domestic fixtures in this country. However, we will still be able to bring live video coverage of occasional Championship games to domestic supporters via watfordfc.com and the club app.

Overseas supporters, on the other hand, can look forward to seeing the majority of our fixtures this coming 2022/23 season.
