I'd second that. An idiot's guide to getting set up with VPN/iFollow would be very useful.

If you can install an app and run it you can set up a VPN. Each is slightly different but mostly you install it, pick a country and press “connect”. Then whatever you do online looks like you come from another country (you can test by going to google).

Then the fun begins. You head to the iFollow page and hope for the best. If your VPN hasn’t been blocked you’ll get the match pass prices in another currency and you just buy/view as normal.

can you install a vpn on your computer or Windows tablet as opposed to a iPad or an android tablet

But lots of people (like me) rarely go away anyway. Our away attendances have been excellent this season while iFollow has been available.

Also don’t away ticket sales go to the other club anyway? So actually I gave the club more money for the Donny game than you did!

The away fans coming to St Andrews or the Ricoh put money into our club. Same thing applies if they decide it’s easier and cheaper staying at home and watching Ifollow.

Look at the match day thread for a home game and see how many are on Ifollow. A good number of those are local.

It's not a police decision. It's to do with the coaches. Worth watching this from this evening about 10 mins onwards. WMP would have little objection to more tickets being made available;

No need for guesswork. It should show in the data. Are away attendances overall in the EFL off trend from before iFollows introduction?

Yep. Same process. Download an app, install and run it, select a country and click connect.

There are ones that require you to do it through router settings or whatever I think but all the ones I’ve tried on mobile or desktop work like that.

In 37 minutes more tickets will become available to those who have left it this late - so “on your marks” - “get set”

Give me a shout if you need a hand. A really easy way on a computer if you’re using google chrome is to just get a chrome extension.

Away followings in bottom two leagues are at record highs I believe. Our average this year is the highest for a long time. ifollow having no impact.

First time I can ever remember a rearranged league game due to a cup game taking place before the actual cup game.

Pretty sure that ain’t happened to Blues before.

I was told that all the next round games are all night games too.

Appears lots of season ticket holders not taken up the option of their ticket.
All very strange.

It always happens. The Stoke City game a couple of years ago the blocks were mostly full, and suddenly there were seats everywhere. Same for the play-off semi. Where I sit now, the back two rows are supposedly ST holders, but most weeks they are empty. Those seats have all come available this morning. There are ST holders who only do a handful of games for whatever reason. Some will have moved seats, but lots just won't bother.

You have opened an account after 6th Jan so it won’t allow you. Ring ticket master that’s what I did.

More like 500 tbf. Although, there are a lot fewer now than there were at midnight so they are shifting. Probably 800-900 at that point.

Guess we’ll never know eh but not everybody comes via coaches.

One thing I do know is WMP attitude towards football fans in general and us in particular.

Can’t imagine they don’t have an input into this so called safety group.
