 I did miss the Radio Rovers.blokes though, never thought I'd say that.

Hahaha, yeah, same here! I know they get a lot of slagging, but I enjoy them.

I have signed up to the Blackburn Rovers app where you can watch interviews and highlights of matches. I live in Ireland so can't sign up for the ifollow. But signed up last year to the Rovers app and they used to show the whole match the following day. When I had spare time I would watch the full match. Seems to be different this year as they only show extended highlights and I can't connect it up to my television either while I could last year. Does anyone know why it has changed?

I'm an overseas fan for this game, I'm in tokyo so should be on around 11 tonight if worked it out right. Can I get it on my phone? Do you need a registered address overseas? Has anyone cracked how to get this in England?

if you go to the site there should be customer service online before the game

Did anyone manage to watch in the uk using a mobile or a tablet..I watched last week using a laptop but that has died since..rip

[magicalmortensleftpeg]

In Portugal and want to watch the game on IPhone but the app still says that it's unavailable due to rights restrictions..? Any help..?

[BigBar]

Got it sorted..you need help magic?

[Husky]

Is this IFollow like Player where you pay one subscription and can log in to any teams iFollow?

[magicalmortensleftpeg]

Can't get it to work. And frankly, I'm now fairly happy that I wasn't able to..

[BigBar]

Painful

Save yourselves some cash and the bother lads and lasses. I feel like more of a mug than those giant Sports Direct ones that nobody really wants and we're only two games in. Fantastic.

Okay guys, for those wanting to watch the games on ifollow if you live in the U.K. Follow these instructions:

Pay for a match pass using a VPN to access the website. Pay using PayPal - they go on sale 30 mins before kick off.

Then, click on 'first team fixtures' from the home page and then click on the 'match centre' for the game you have bought a pass for.

You will then see a 'watch live' button. You need to click this. The player will then open but the game will not load - it will just load showing you a buffering symbol. You need to disconnect/turn off your VPN at this point (do not close any windows) and then the game will start showing. Don't ask me how this works! I tried it on the laptop and on the app and both worked.

Hope this helps

My iFollow debut this week.

Managed to buy a match pass for today so hope my phone connection is ok to stream. I have tested on a free vid so hopeful.

If you are watching it on your phone and it buffers you can alter the video quality  on the video settings, shouldnt make that much difference viewing wise on a small screen.

Anybody had any luck getting a response to enquiries on the [email protected] email address?

I've seen mention of it on here, but is there an xbox app? Or an app for smart tvs?

A competition for the overseas Roverites. Unfortunately a match ticket is included.

Not sure if there is  a specific app, but did read on another site that somebody was using  internet explorer app? on a xbox and viewing the stream that way

Was the commentary working today?

No sir it wasnt

[Roverthechimp]

Really enjoy the lack of commentary - hope they don't "fix it" 

Assuming it is my feeble computer but anyone else have a slight "glitch/pause" every 30 seconds or so?

The live video coverage is as close as you'll get to being in the stadium; no commentary, no replays, and only the noise inside the stadium to go off. In a way, it's a more real representation than what you get on normal TV. It takes a bit of getting used to. I suppose there's pros and cons to both versions.

I don't think there'll be any live coverage of the match against Burnley on iFollow (audio or visual) because it's the Carabao Cup.

You can actually replay incidents live so to speak on the bar at the bottom it shows cards and a ball for goals, just click near them and it plays them back, just click the live button and it goes back to current action, quite handy when you miss the first half and play it through on double speed at half time

Does anyone here use a VPN to access the service?
