I think Sky will be showing 1 midweek game live from the EFL leagues, all the others games that night will be available to watch live, not through Sky, but through the clubs official websites, at a cost, I think of £10 a game. 

According to this, when there is a full midweek round of fixtures all games will be available via the red button plus the one shown on the main channel

possibly when it’s not a full round of fixtures (movement for postponements) then these are available on ifollow?

The tension is mounting. What will be today's major extra? Perhaps a soundtrack from a 70's porn classic, or cutting to a little league baseball game every time there's a corner?

I can't wait.

[Biddy]

Sounds like the commentary is right today.

[Josh]

Yea but the audio is back to being two seconds out of sync like last year

[Husky]

Yeah it's behind a bit which is a bit irritating. Though better than being ahead which would mean having to mute the sound.

Is there no radio rovers these days?

[Husky]

Did anyone enjoy the goal commentary?

It's like the pictures are coming through old school analogue and the commentary is on digital radio.??

Plenty of rivers will be flowing too.

[Cherry Blue]

Poor quality TV on sky and a few minutes behind.

[Bigdoggsteel]

I got the match pass. A tenner is steep, but some of the rivers from other tributaries don't flow very well. Last time they blocked two rivers I was looking at.

The quality is actually much better on the Sky Sports app as it's in HD. I think you may be able to watch it on the Sky Sports Player for PC/Mac's too, and that is also much better quality.

So I am sitting in my bed in China and my VPN is miraculously working offering a choice between LA and Tokyo.

Any suggestions?

Was that the Hull game? Literally somebody showing a TV screen with a webcam?

Whatever happened to the guy that would river his phone from the stands?

[Bigdoggsteel]

Do ye have sound? 

[Bigdoggsteel]

Working now, but the stream is jumpy. My laptop only has wifi, no ethernet. 

Could I watch I follow on my ps4? Too late for this game 

[Swanson]

Picture and sound not in sync again?

[Husky]

It's annoying. I mean it can't be that difficult to sync the audio can it.

Never mind Ps4 it's like a really badly programmed early 90's 16 bit video game.

Uncrisp visuals, poor collision detection, delayed sound effects. STINKER 14%. Only £39.99

A netbook then essentially rather than a laptop?

I watched from the US. Quality was great. Rovers commentary was at a good volume and in sync. Slo-mo replays. Good camera angles. There has been previously been plenty to complain about from iFollow but not today. Lets hope it continues like this.

[magicalmortensleftpeg]

Genuinely impressed. Commentary was slightly out of sync but the picture quality was good and there were multiple camera angles. However, £10 per game is steep. £6/7 and I’d happily purchase for each available game. Overall it’s certainly a good option to have.

Same for me - picture was good, but very annoying to have the sound out of sync

[Bigdoggsteel]

The picture was poor for me when I connected my laptop/netbook to the TV via HDMI, but I just watched on the laptop then and it was fine. The commentary was actually decent. The commentary was slightly behind the action, which I suppose is a lot better than it being ahead! Ten pounds is steep alright, that's around 12-13 euros. 5 pounds would be more reasonable. Having said that, I will still pay it.
