Blues Game (6 Viewers)

I'd second that. An idiot's guide to getting set up with VPN/iFollow would be very useful.

If you can install an app and run it you can set up a VPN. Each is slightly different but mostly you install it, pick a country and press “connect”. Then whatever you do online looks like you come from another country (you can test by going to google).

Then the fun begins. You head to the iFollow page and hope for the best. If your VPN hasn’t been blocked you’ll get the match pass prices in another currency and you just buy/view as normal.

can you install a vpn on your computer or Windows tablet as opposed to a iPad or an android tablet

Anybody staying up until after midnight for the last ticket scramble?

Yeah, But only to keep adding random tickets to my basket and then removing them again.

Because it's much better to go out to an away day and watch the football live. The club still earns the

But lots of people (like me) rarely go away anyway. Our away attendances have been excellent this season while iFollow has been available.

Also don’t away ticket sales go to the other club anyway? So actually I gave the club more money for the Donny game than you did!

The away fans coming to St Andrews or the Ricoh put money into our club. Same thing applies if they decide it’s easier and cheaper staying at home and watching Ifollow.

Excitement and experience

I agree, an increasing number don’t I think.

 

[Irish Sky Blue]

Because it's much better to go out to an away day and watch the football live. The club still earns the vast majority of the money from ifollow too. We sell out most of our away allocations. Would you rather those that can't go miss out and the club be poorer?

Look at the match day thread for a home game and see how many are on Ifollow. A good number of those are local.

Fair point

Cant remember this happening before. Even for the shit we don’t leave blocks empty. Weird decision and 100% nailed on a WMP decision.

It's not a police decision. It's to do with the coaches. Worth watching this from this evening about 10 mins onwards. WMP would have little objection to more tickets being made available;

No need for guesswork. It should show in the data. Are away attendances overall in the EFL off trend from before iFollows introduction?

Yep. Same process. Download an app, install and run it, select a country and click connect.

There are ones that require you to do it through router settings or whatever I think but all the ones I’ve tried on mobile or desktop work like that.

thank you I will try that
Id rather pay and give the money to the club than watch on a rogue Facebook page

 

[GaryJones]

In 37 minutes more tickets will become available to those who have left it this late - so “on your marks” - “get set”

 

[higgs]

Will it be a sell out?

If they release no further tickets it will be a 19'000 sell out

 

[Joy Division]

Loads of tickets now available. Now's your time to grab some.

Just tried to get a ticket on the CCFC site & it says I don’t have the right privileges ‘at this time’ to get one...what’s that even mean ffs?

Give me a shout if you need a hand. A really easy way on a computer if you’re using google chrome is to just get a chrome extension.

Away followings in bottom two leagues are at record highs I believe. Our average this year is the highest for a long time. ifollow having no impact.

 

[clint van damme]

First time I can ever remember a rearranged league game due to a cup game taking place before the actual cup game.

Pretty sure that ain’t happened to Blues before.

I was told that all the next round games are all night games too.

you don't need t be worrying about the next round mate!!

Appears lots of season ticket holders not taken up the option of their ticket.
All very strange.

There are loads of tickets left though you’re right.

Another day of dot counting!

It always happens. The Stoke City game a couple of years ago the blocks were mostly full, and suddenly there were seats everywhere. Same for the play-off semi. Where I sit now, the back two rows are supposedly ST holders, but most weeks they are empty. Those seats have all come available this morning. There are ST holders who only do a handful of games for whatever reason. Some will have moved seats, but lots just won't bother.

You have opened an account after 6th Jan so it won’t allow you. Ring ticket master that’s what I did.

 

[Corrado]

I reckon about 200 or so left - I gave up dot counting at 30

More like 500 tbf. Although, there are a lot fewer now than there were at midnight so they are shifting. Probably 800-900 at that point.

Guess we’ll never know eh but not everybody comes via coaches.

One thing I do know is WMP attitude towards football fans in general and us in particular.

Can’t imagine they don’t have an input into this so called safety group.

 

[CovInEssex]

Loads left all over the kop. Nice group of 7 together in s34.

Either you counted or you have got a very good eye....... 497 left

 

[pusbccfc]

I reckon those lot will be gone in a few hours. Not many at all tbf.

 

[Stan_Drews]

Imagine had we lost in the last round. You’d be playing Blackburn at home. Slight contrast methinks

We’d beat them as well
