    Greetings from Tallinn!

    As the game is on iFollow UK tonight, I think that means us abroad don't have access. Anyone got some links to watch the game - please post here. Last time I watched in Bulgarian, and while that will do...it would be even better if there was a stream with English commentary. My worry is, as it's Champions League tonight, a lot of channels might be showing that, missing out on the epic match that is Bradford City v Hartlepool!

    Appreciate some links please!

    And before someone mentions VPN, I think that may work, but it also means forking out a tenner, when I've already purchased the full season pass. I don't really want to do that.

    Why does the fact that it is on ifollow uk stop those abroad accessing it?

    I thought the times it was stopped abroad was when the game was picked for transmission abroad by EFL partners

    I've checked from my 'holiday home' in the Netherlands and it's available to watch. ;)

    It wasn't last time it was available in the UK (the Newport game), so I'm presuming the same?

    How did you check that? Mine shows "access to the game will be available one hour before kick off". That could mean (like the Newport game) that abroad gets audio only?

    That was due to the Newport game being chosen for international broadcast so will be fine for tonight

    Massive sigh of relief.
    Would be nice for the nice folks at ifollow and City to make this clear though. The same way they didn't announce that us on far flung shores couldn't watch the Newport game.

    City made it very clear but I think that's on ifollow to let subscribers know

    Should still be on ifollow abroad. The only reason it's not available abroad is that the international breaks force other countries' broadcasters to scrape the barrel for something to show instead of top flight matches. The EFL/our clubs are prepared to do anything for a little extra cash, so they block iFollow to paying customers because we are just grateful to be able to watch games most of the time. It also reminds us that a few people in Malaysian betting shop are much more important than loyal fans who cough up cash every year and I for one am glad to be put in my place. :confused::triumph:
