Hi Neewbie.

I think when you get info like this shown, it can be an either or situation. Sometimes the channel is encrypted and sometimes it broadcasts FTA. It may be that they encrypt when the match starts - this sometimes happens but hopefully not in the case. The only thing you can do is try it tomorrow, but don't invite all your mates round, just in case it goes belly up. :
