You really need to get these ideas to the marketing part of the club you are absolutely bang on and far too bloody creative

The way I see it, you pay £260 and you get 23 games on ifollow (normally £10 a match) and a shirt (approx £40) so already good value. If fans are allowed in you get to watch the matches live as a bonus.

Under normal circumstances you can't buy a home pass for ifollow so it's a first really.

The priority would be to to purchase the same number of memberships as you had season tickets in 2019/20. So, if you had 4 season tickets last year you can buy 4 memberships. If you only had one ST but want to buy 3 more then you would have to wait to get the other 3 when they go on general sale. I assume you had 4 STs last season. That’s how I read it.

140 a year for home and away. So say 70 for home games.

I wonder how many will change their registation name for a 'laugh' so that the 'high value' shirt bears the names of Bin Laden and Jimmy Krankie et al

Its a bit of a quandry for the ST holders who previously accessed ifollow for the away games through VPN's, and will be interesting to see what they choose to do. Will they purchase this membership and ifollow on top of that, therefore paying £390, or will they forego their season ticket for the year, and pay £140 to watch all the games from their sofas?

I thought you can't watch home games on ifollow, officially that is

Is the replica shirt next season's home shirt with all of the members names on it, or is it just a new one off shirt to be worn in one game?

They’ve done a large update to ifollow over the summer, so my guess is it will be a lot better at spotting vpn access. They must know what happens (it’s not exactly hard to find online discussions of ways to access it) and at the end of the day it is their business so will do all they can to protect that.
So, I’ll be interested to see if people can access it through VPN this season. I’m thinking specifically about away games here, because from what’s been announced today away BCD games won’t be included. I guess that’s the same with a season ticket, so no beef I’d just like to know how we watch away games we cannot attend...

To be honest while games are BCD I don't understand why they would stop fans from the UK accessing ifollow anyway. I guess the season ticket might not be appropriate, as it could roll over once fans are allowed back into grounds, but I would like to see UK based fans allowed to buy individual match packages until then. Club's need to be supported in accessing all the revenue streams they can right now.

A rule they’ll absolutely have to change for now. For EFL and clubs benefit.

If we get back in earlier than anticipated, it’s a fantastic deal taking into consideration the shirt thrown in too. nice touch with the personalisation
Glad that ifollow is being made available, had seen rumours that they were going to go back to the 3pm blackout.
It’s an innovative solution, best the club could’ve done in the current predicament in my opinion. Under £1m worth of revenue generated from this avenue alone.

One thing they've definitely got to take notice of this year is the Sky games as they show a lot more Championship.
But that shouldn't be hard to do by just 'blacking out' those games that are live on Sky.

I’m pretty sure there are cables you can buy to do it that way. For about £10-15

I would expect there to be an iFollow app for smart TV or for Firesticks/AppleTV pretty soon and this would be the time to do it you would think.

Not the greatest opportunity for the ST fund as that was always about trying to create the experience for families and individuals to attend games, it may free up some tickets this year, we purchased 150 last year but fund a lot lower this year as expected.
Do still nominate just in case, we may have to consider match packages mid season maybe and also, if you have a few pounds spare, you can still donate.

In difficult circumstances I think the club have done a good job putting this together. It’s not a bad price and the extras like a one off shirt are a nice touch.
On the downside though i think its more and more unlikely fans will be in before the new year and realistically even then I can’t see more than the 3.5k they’ve stated this season. I know that sounds negative.
Will also be interested what they charge for an ifollow match pass next season especially as a lot of us already use a vpn to access the season ticket option.
