Twenty’s Plenty / TV & Live Streaming

If Bradford City put matchday prices up to £27 and season tickets to £350 would you say the same ?
“”Don’t like it, watch on iFollow”

 

Is the fish paste for officers as well General or just enlisted men rations?

 

A sense of humour is overrated anyway

 

Honest question for those in the know. What are the arrangements next season for streaming/ watching L2 at home on TV, I have deduced from here Sky is doing something, but is this replacing I-follow and if so are we going to see any benefit (similar or increase in games available, better quality, and dare I ask predicted cost to the customer)?

 

All the info is in this article.
No ifollow unless you are “overseas”
Audio only if you are in UK.

That is a stupid deal.

God damn, why are English football authorities so bloody thick?

 

Thanks BBB. Do you or anybody else know what it actually practically means?

It certainly is n't clear and more self-congratulatory spin than anything else, but the Championship appear to be getting half the league coverage per week. Therefore looks like we are going to only see about half the number of league games available to us now to stream over next season (5 games), and that's if they are not including cup games in this figure. And presuming we will be paying more. Hope I have read it wrong.

 

My understanding, when the announced the Sky deal, was that the games which are currently on iFollow would be made available via Sky. What hasn't yet been announced is whether that is included in your current subscription as whether it will be at an additional cost. On top of that more games that are currently Sat 3pm would be selected for regular Sky TV so expect more lunch time etc. kick-offs as a result.

If anyone knows more detail please share!

 

Thankyou. I have read this is as "our matches" being City not the entire EFL. So we can expect to be able to watch via one-off streaming all the City matches that are available to us in the UK (currently through I-follow); plus approx five Saturday black-out City games if we have a contract with SKY sports. And I presume some these will be home games. This feels better for fans and club than how I interpreted the article, as long as the cost is not too high to us.

 

Sky are definitely trying to get their money back.
My workmate’s full Sky package is going up £10 a month in January.
He said it’s gone up by an odd pound or two previously but not a tenner in one go.

 

The clubs are the ones that vote for it.

 

The Prem clubs are arguing amongst themselves now how much they are willing to give us out of the multi £B deal they have just agreed.

 

I have a suggestion…..Let’s buy a local school and plant the Academy there?
Woodhouse Grove anyone?

 

All dense then.

 

I’ll be investing in a dodgy stick thingy…

 

In practically any other business situation I can see your point. But with sport in general and football in particular, there's not another source of Bradford City I can access as an alternative on the market. It's either pay what they're asking or don't go, they've got the monopoly on watching City on the 1st Jan and that's why complaining about the pricing has validity,
