It’s basically the same camera that you get for the highlights with the CWR commentary over the top (normally a few seconds behind annoyingly).

If you can’t get to the game definitely worth watching.

As I can’t be bothered to travel all the way down to Portsmouth I will give iFollow a try. Can you turn the volume off and listen to CWR via the radio?does that help?

Oh, and 0-5 City

The stream quality is very good. I only really watch it for the midweek away games and did notice a slight commentary delay last time. Think they've introduced replays this season, but others can confirm if that's the case.

Yes, very badly timed replays that pay no attention to what’s happening in the game.

You get stats as well, and they seemed to be doing a half arsed pre game view of fans arriving and stuff.

Commentary is always off, which sucks. Someone said you can open just the commentary in a new tab and pause it for a second to sync up but I haven’t tried.

I found I couldn’t cast my laptop screen for the Bristol game. Got the screen up but the video section just came up as a black screen. Looks like they’re trying to stop it working.

Sorry meant off as in out of sync not missing entirely.

The rating system has the game nicely balanced but it doesn't work out any figures for home advantage. With Portsmouth also being far away as it is for a lot of teams then this may figure in on the final result also.

Should be a good game.

I think it was OK for me, I can't remember it being bad.

Try turning the quality down as sometimes it makes it better

No, because when you play the same team at home then it cancels any assumed advantage you or they may have out because of the home and away leg etc.

Look up white advantage in chess etc..

Works almost in the same way.

First-move advantage in chess - Wikipedia

Working from home today, folks arriving around 4pm, dinner around 6pm, feed my little man before the wife and my mother put him to bed whilst me and my step dad drive down to the Good Companion for a quick pint before KO. 3 points. Magic.

I'd agree with that. My football knowledge is probably the worst on the forum.

You can connect from a laptop to your TV with a HDMI cable, that's what I do. Works fine.

I went in there before / after the FA cup game a few years ago, it was OK. Iirc it's a chain type pub, possibly a Sizzler
