I noticed today that video was not available for some reason when using a web browser on PC. Initially I thought it was because the match was not being streamed by accrington (somewhere on the ifollow site it says that accrington don’t have iFollow because they are not part of the scheme!).
Additionally, the iFollow site allows you to see a list of games that are not available for live video streaming, and it specifically said that today’s game was not available. Having already paid for a match pass I was livid. It worked on every other game that I have been away for...
Basically I was logged in, paid up, but unable to see the live match link, but it was just sending me round in circles to buy a match pass rather than loading the flash window.
I was just about to give up when i tried using my ipad. Lo and behold, it worked! WTF - i missed the first 15 minutes. And had to endure the sound delay that always happens when using the ipad.
The iFollow platform clearly needs some work to make it dependable. The list of unavailable games seems to list *every* game this season (which is obviously nonsense as they will be available) and accrington clearly did stream the game as I watched it! Misinformation and horrible web design, frankly.
Overall I’ve found iFollow to be extremely useful (I work overseas periodically and am not always able to get back in time for the games)
Anyway just thought that might offer some clarity for anyone who wondered what the hell happened with it today.
