iFollow question for Friday’s game.

[Kryten]

Im working through the first half but will be able to catch the second half.
If I buy the match pass does anyone know if the game will come on live when I log In or it will I have the option for me to start the game from the beginning of the first half?

It will start live when you press play but you can instantly rewind it to the start of the game, you can probably stop it and set it back to the start before it even loads on screen to be honest.

Ok mate thanks for the quick reply, I’ll try and dodge the score and log in during the half time break and rewind.

I thought that iFollow didn’t apply to any usual Saturday games, or any games that are the main Sky Sports fixture being shown on any other day (like ours tomorrow) for which they retain the sole rights?

Yes, probably not on.
For sure it’s not on iFollow in the US.
Gotta get the ESPN+ App for an extra $5 /mo.

If you go to the subscribe page it says that the next game doesn't have a match pass in the UK

But Kryten its on sky, so you can log in and watch online with your sky subscription or ask someone kindly to let you use theirs (they'll probably have to log you in on your device though

I live in the States mate so I don't have access to SKY unfortunately (or should that be fortunately) but thanks anyway

Yes just checked and its showing available as the next match, I may just get to see it after all.

Im in the US too and the ESPN+ thing is well worth the $5 a month, especially now there are two of our December matches on Sky/ESPN+.

Second that. Loads of Championship games on ESPN+ (and also college football if you like that sort of thing), and it means I can watch the match tomorrow on the big screen tv at home, rather than my laptop.

Taking the afternoon off work of course!

I’m a seasoned ifollow user from Australia. If it on ESPN In the US it just won’t work even though it often says it’s on.

When this happens to me, the video button is available and the page tries to load but then it gives an error message along the lines of “not available in your region due to rights restrictions”.

ESPN, or in my case BeIn sports is the only option.

No worries. It’s not a black out game then?

Can't you guys get Now TV using a VPN or Smart DNS?

Generally the smarter way is to not use a VPN or DNS but use iFollow or the TV provider in country

 

[Mad Mick]

I agree Swiss, but they aren't they not shown on ifollow in many countries If on Sky?
