Plugged laptop into tv via hdmi and thought quality was pretty good. As another poster says, the single camera does tend to have to catch up on long balls punted forward, but not so much an issue now Cox/Evans have gone.

Is your account listed to your address in Spain? If so then I get how you could do this.

I thought that for people with UK iFollow accounts you only got the same as what you would in the UK as you need your iFollow account addressed to a foreign country in order to watch live. I tried it when abroad using my normal iFollow account and it didnt work as the account is addressed in the UK. I created a new account with the hotel I was staying at's address and it worked. I then closed the new account when I got back from holiday.

Birminghamstag is correct.

Your account must have an overseas address for you to watch matches while you are abroad.

the location of the bank details does not matter.

It is the user's registered address that matters.

So what Martin is saying is that we all need to sign up using Spanishstag's address (maybe different house numbers) and we'll be good to go. :lol:

Definitely not the case. I've used a VPN to watch several games on a Saturday at 3pm and my registered address is where I actually live.

Thanks guys. I’ve got a ifollow account, but registered to home address, wasn’t sure if I signed in from abroad it would work. I’ll set up a new account using hotel address to watch it.

Apologies if this has already been mentioned, and it obviously doesn't apply to us this weekend, but apparently 3pm Saturday kick offs during the international break will be available of iFollow.

Confirms clubs knew nothing about this until now. I thought I couldn't have missed it. I think it's called making it up as you go along.

50% (£5) to the club who the supporter purchases it through, so for those signing into MT.net, the club gets the full 5er.Same with oppo fans, they log into their club and their club gets the 5er :D

from https://www.bristolpost.co.uk/sport/foo ... sf-1980310

the EFL said the live screening of EFL games during international breaks would be reviewed after this weekend’s fixtures and clubs would be consulted.

“The EFL is very aware of the importance of protecting the live matchday experience, and will always champion supporters making their way through turnstiles as the best way to watch live football, but the option to stream is an added option for those fans who can’t make the game in person,” the EFL said.

“The EFL needs to understand the full value of the streaming opportunity to make informed decisions and the matches taking place tomorrow will help determine the future direction of travel so we can fully understand what games will be eligible for domestic streaming from 2019/20.

“The review will be shared and discussed with clubs, with a review assessing shared experiences and results for the period through to the end of October.”


In other words, clubs were not consulted ahead of this fiasco.
