It's a fucking joke.

But it's modern football for you

It would be interesting to know how much the club will get from tv rights and the increased ground advertising revenue compared to gate receipts.

If I can watch the Tuesday night games without spending a tenner on iFollow then I'm all for it.

but are they showing all Tuesday night games or only the selected ones?

Will we still be able to watch extended highlights and the whole game again as we can now for free or will we need to pay for Sky which I refuse to do.

What I've seen is that Sky are showing over 1000 EFL games so I would assume that includes every midweek game on the red button, which they already do in the Championship.

Cool for some that can afford stupid sky sports fees.

I gave up when the first lock down hit, and it's been a noticeable saving. Any game I want to see I'll go to the pub for. Now I can't watch midweek games (understand the 3pm blackout) of my own club because I have to pay for sky... its pretty shit for those who can't afford it.

I'm assuming it'd be available using a one day pass (same as when I watched the Stockport match) so long as they're not Saturday 3pm kick-offs that'd be the way to go. I'm not interested in a full Sky Sports package.

But what's happening with audio commentary when you're out of town? Or if you're abroad (I watched the Walsall game on iFollow in Spain)?

The way I read it, iFollow will vanish. As for Sky, it's not a question of affording it, it is refusing to pay to watch adverts. If free channel manages on advert income to operate then why can't Sky be free as well.
