    What moment still haunts you?

    It's obvious but in 4 decades from the 90s onwards the big Wembley moments hit me at my core. The two things I think about regularly are: 1. That Hamer goal Vs Luton and the sheer feeling in that moment that we were going to win the game and promotion. The relief and the noise. 2. That Torp...

    There are various options in the survey about game attendance and overseas etc as well as capturing the country you live in - so it is a consideration. But regardless of whether you watch 1 game on iFollow or all of them, it's a service they provide and it's pretty clear with their actions they...

    Just to give you an insight into where the EFL's priorities are - there's no ability to give feedback on iFollow at all in the EFL supporter's survey. I noticed a single question where iFollow was a checkbox about how you watch games, but nowhere are you able to tell them how shit it is :) .

    3rd Kit

    Feel like there's a lot of people criticising that strategy who deep down just wish it was them getting it early / for free etc. Regardless of whether you are into the whole idea of "content generation" it cannot be denied that this type of strategy does have impact on what people buy. The club...

    Match Thread Leicester City - Coventry City Match Thread - Saturday 20th Sep

    Given how the game went, got to be happy with a point. Not being able to start with EMC left us very shallow when it came time to change things up. A game like this where a few players are drifting out of the game or injured/struggling really exposes the squad. All in all, great point away from...

    It is reasonable to push for a refund, but I never had any luck doing that when the system was unusable for many games last year, due their own faulty & over-zealous abuse detection systems. The only way really is to stop subscribing and find alternatives, as grim as that is.

    Lampard to West Ham

    Yes, this is what Doug was angling for ever since he came in and began to recruit senior executives and subject matter experts that reported to him, which likely made Robins pretty uncomfortable. This is a more stable structure and does mean that if Lampard went although would be disruptive in...

    I believe the club have limited control over the system and will just shrug because it's not something they control. The contact I had at the club who also had some choice iFollow feedback has gone silent, I think because there is nothing they feel they can do about it.

    You misunderstand - I was not blocked because the game was being shown in my country, I was blocked because I had used "too many devices" despite the fact that you can only ever stream on one. Essentially this is an anti-abuse system that's gone wrong. That's how it started and it ended with...

    I'm abroad so UK IP address doesn't apply to me. I've used it for about 6 years, this is the first season I haven't. I can put up with the crap with rewind not working, no airplay, no proper full screen etc - but when they start actively blocking me for genuine usage it just isn't worth the...

    For me I've been locked out of watching games which they say is "due to using too many devices" but the system only lets you stream on a single device. In prior seasons, it would simply tell you this when you tried to open a stream. Many times I need to move rooms or devices during the game...

    I've stopped subscribing to iFollow this year, first time in probably 5 or more years since I left the UK. The service has gotten worse every year, not better. I've written to them and they say they're aware of issues but no commitment to fix. I've also written to the club who are also aware but...

    Sheaf to Wrexham

    Yep - great point. He was so pivotal to us before Grimes came that he likely played far beyond his physical capability. That's a credit to him.

    Transfer Rumour 25/26 Summer Transfer Window

    I think our squad size is 23 right now - I don't anticipate we'll end the day like that, but that would make it the 2nd smallest squad in the division. So we undoubtedly have a very small squad now. I'm not a bedwetter, but given we normally pick up a handful of crucial injuries every season...

    Sheaf to Wrexham

    Agree and a really incredible signing for any team in the division who needs him. Right now with Grimes, he's something of a luxury for us - and unfortunately we need to deploy that money in other areas.

    Sheaf to Wrexham

    I don't think Vik is fully fit, nor are the team playing to his strengths at this point. There was a painful opportunity in the first half where Vik was holding his run and Martinelli completely ignored it. Exactly the sort of chance he converts. I don't watch much Premiership football and I'm...

    Sheaf to Wrexham

    Watching Arsenal yesterday struggle to do anything vs Liverpool it very much felt like watching Cov at our worst over the last few seasons. We lapse into that tick tock, safe play against a team sitting deep and it becomes so easy to play against.
