    Nope I haven’t gone to a beer garden in Leeds when a match at VP is on. I went to a pub in Bradford before the match. The same will happen this Saturday.

    Not sure why you've dug up the quote?Difference being is that I'm not moaning I should be able to watch it while I'm spending my time elsewhere.

    Of course my interests lie with Bradford City but are you trying to say that the other 23 clubs in league 2 would not think the deal I outlined was a good one?
    For example it’s unlikely that Barrow would take more than 50 fans to Gillingham due to travel costs and low fanbase but they might sell 200 iFollow passes. Don’t you think the Gillingham chairman would prefer a deal which then gives them income from 250 ticket sales instead of just 50??
    For the record I don’t want iFollow opening up for all but if it was then this is the kind of arrangement that could work for ALL clubs not just Bradford City

    Exactly. The hardcore away fans will keep going away, regardless of iFollow coverage. And the home team will sell far more iFollow passes to away fans than they'd ever have sold tickets in the ground. So everyone wins.

    50 fans?

    3 posts ago you were championing the cause by claiming that ALL away ends would be sold out. What's changed?

    Have you been on the pop?
    I was suggesting that home clubs would get the income equal to the away seats being sold out if tickets sold were added to iFollow passes sold. Are you keeping up yet?
