Just didn’t work for me.... paid £10 but got nothing. But that didn’t annoy me quite as much as getting hooked up to someone streaming it and over 1000 were watching it for free..... all lost revenue for the club!!!

Would genuinely report that shit if I saw it. That’s £10,000 the club are missing out on

Yep, that oggy OI guy on fb I think

 

[ExmouthNeil]

Can’t really complain if you’re trying to watch it that way and have the club miss out on revenue

Wasn't complaining I was annoyed... I also prefer to buy a quality product let's say from the club shop rather than the substandard ifollow coverage which I did subscribe to when I first moved abroad but they let me down so many times I wont fund them anymore.

Could you let me know how much of the fee goes to the club??? As you have your finger on the financial pulse...

Infinitely more than the dodgy IPTV supplier that’s likely funding terrorism more than football.

How about you buy both if you want both, as apparently you still want access to it?

You won't fund the club but you would have cheap knock offs?

 

[ajsccfc]

I used it yesterday for the first time in ages and it's much better, having a few cameras rather than the one makes the world of difference. There was a brief spell at the start where there was no commentary but whether that's a negative is up for debate

 

[Johnnythespider]

FWIW i think the service has improved since last season with more cameras, inplay replays and score flashes from other games. Still improvements required but better.

 

[ExmouthNeil]

That's not what I said......

 

[Liquid Gold]

Ah I’ve only tried on Mac today. Though last year I couldn’t get AirPlay from phone to laptop working but that might have been the dodgy Windows AirPlay app I was using.

My airplay to Apple TV from Mac worked fine yesterday.

 

[Tommo1993]

Seems an unfinished article.

Wonder what you’re doing different. I needed HDMI again yesterday.

 

[Liquid Gold]

My Bristol mates said they paid full price for their season tickets then get a refund for each match they can't attend which they can then use to buy ifollow if they want. Sounds like an arse over tits way of doing it.

 

[Johnnythespider]

Am i right in thinking that we can't use it Friday as Sky are showing the game, i don't have sky and thought the membership would allow us to watch via ifollow.

 

[SlowerThanPlatt]

You can get a Now TV day pass which I think is £10

 

[Johnnythespider]

Yeah I'll probably end up doing that, just thought the membership stated access to all home games behind closed doors, I've probably read it wrong though.

 

[MalcSB]

It said subject to Sky scheduling.

 

[BornSlippySkyBlue]

....but Clive and Oggy's 'commentary' kept on coming in and out, would prefer an option to just turn those 2 off if i'm honest.

They could call it the volume button or something

 

[robbiekeane]

Do you know if this applies to overseas users?

 

[chiefdave]

FWIW i think the service has improved since last season with more cameras, inplay replays and score flashes from other games. Still improvements required but better.

The coverage itself is much improved. They just need to put a few quid in the meter to be able to cope with all the extra users.

 

[chiefdave]

Wonder what you’re doing different. I needed HDMI again yesterday.

I cant airplay from iPad or iPhone, just get a blank screen, same with a HDMI adapter on either of those devices. Got an old Mac Mini and AirPlay or HDMI don‘t work, video blanks out and just get commentary.

For some reason if I airplay from my Macbook it works fine.

 

[Johnnythespider]

Do you know if this applies to overseas users?

I'm just guessing but i would think if sky are showing it ifollow wont even bother broadcasting, just a guess though.

 

[cc84cov]

No problems for me I watch on the iPad

 

[PVA]

Yeah I'll probably end up doing that, just thought the membership stated access to all home games behind closed doors, I've probably read it wrong though.

There should be lots of free streams online to save you the tenner if you want to.

 

[chiefdave]

Think it might be that season ticket holders can get the game on ifollow, even if its on Sky. For those paying a tenner per game the Sky games aren't on ifollow but you can get a Now TV day pass for the same price.

NEWS: Coventry City's game against QPR to be live on Sky Sports

Coventry City's home game against Queens Park Rangers has been selected for live coverage by Sky Sports.

www.ccfc.co.uk

Fans who buy a Championship Club Membership Season Ticket will still be able to stream the game, however as this game has been selected by Sky Sports this means that Match Passes for other supporters to watch via iFollow will not be available.

You'd think then we'd be getting some info this week on how the system recognises CCM holders.

It's going to mean that unless they sort out the 19/20 Hospitality ST issue this week then those who have had to buy the CCM only package are going to be penalised.

 

[chiefdave]

You'd think then we'd be getting some info this week on how the system recognises CCM holders.

You get a code for each game which you can redeem on ifollow.

I am a current season ticket holder, how do I get access to matches?

The match by match streaming and season ticket offer is a TEMPORARY measure that has only been put in place whilst Clubs operate at a zero or reduced capacity and will be subject to regular review with the first set for early October.

While these measures are in place Season Ticket holders will be given the opportunity to access fixtures in the 2020/21 season online, subject to each club giving season ticket holders access to a promotional code, on a match by match basis. If a season ticket holder has not received a promotional code then they must contact the Club to check if they are eligible.

Am I being stupid or is this unclear again? Surely for every game they need to make clear whether it’s available for:

- CCM season package holders
- Non CCM holders who would potentially pay a one off fee for the match
- Overseas iFollow subscribers

It’s not hard is it to just include all three buckets with every update

 

[chiefdave]

- CCM season package holders
- Non CCM holders who would potentially pay a one off fee for the match
- Overseas iFollow subscribers

I think it goes:
CCM season package holders: will get the match on ifollow
Non CCM holders who would potentially pay a one off fee for the match: can't access match through ifollow but can via a 1 day Sky Sports pass on Now TV
Overseas iFollow subscribers: on ifollow subject to game not being broadcast in the country they think you are watching from.

 

[Johhny Blue]

Also, if you don’t usually use ifollow & intend on buying the game on Saturday, my advice would be sign up & pay early as if you wait until close to the match, it can crash or have problems & you may miss some of the game.

It’s not like anything happens in the first few minutes anyway

I bought my ST from the ticket office last week. I asked the lady about the QPR game and she told me it wasn't covered by the ST deal as it was on Sky. I think we will have to buy a match pass the same as everyone else.

I have watched that in the past when it was only available overseas but always pay to watch IFollow whenever it’s available as I did Saturday, for me it’s the availability rather than the money saved as I not techy enough to sort out a vpn thingy

Believe it is approx 75% goes to the club.

I believe it’s actually 70% net, which once you’ve taken out all of their costs and profit works out at

 

[Liquid Gold]

Anybody know if QPR is on international ifollow?
