It will be to the surprise of no one that we are indeed one of the clubs which hadn’t signed up. “Please note that the iFollow service is only available to clubs playing in the EFL during the 2019/20 season who have opted in to utilise the iFollow platform. Those clubs who have not will have access to the same live streaming opportunity and will be able to provide their fans with access through their own club digital services. We are therefore unable to provide subscriptions to fans of Birmingham City, Bristol City, Cardiff City, Charlton Athletic, Derby County, Forest Green Rovers, Fulham, Hull City, Leeds United, Leyton Orient, Middlesbrough, QPR, Salford City, Stoke City, Sunderland, Swansea City and Wigan Athletic. Please contact your club for more information.”
Strange, I’m certain I’ve seen us once or twice this season on ifollow. Maybe that’s been away games.
I’d guess a deliberate ploy to wind up those that it winds up. As it was last time, & the time before & many times before that. A little gift that keeps on giving.
Yes, I realised Chazz was being his little provocative self, bless his cotton socks. Of course the people it winds up are Forest and County fans and people who like things to be correct. We have fans who feel it is discrimination and a conspiracy when we referred to as Hull even though we are a one club city,
As well as Leeds, Newcastle, Blackburn, Bolton, Derby and others where they only mention the town name.
I've seen one or two away games on it, also one where someone was streaming from a camera pointing at his own tv set. Admirable effort but a difficult watch...
I watch our games here in Canada on TigersTV when they are not on Sky in England. I'm sure I've seen the iFollow sign on the screen at the start of the game. Very good streaming and a good Hull commentator (not Swann thank goodness). Usually doesn't show up on TigersTV till a few minutes before kick off.
3 pm Sat games can't be shown live on telly in the UK is the problem. Needs someone to "nick" the feed from foreign sources with live transmission rights. I'm sure eventually a new business model will emerge where most if not all clubs will have a subscription service, but the TV cut for the club will need to compensate for lost gate-receipts. A sad state of affairs.
Aye, with this being Thurs at 3 game thought sky may have it on the red button, seems like we aren't a 3 o'clock Red button option but seen we are in the 29th....who knows

Me too, I can remember standing in the south stand being disappointed that Ken Houghton was out and Terry Heath game in. Terry played a blinder.
If we are to have serious aspirations of a top 6 finish these are games we must win. Let's have the double over them and push on to the next one Saturday. Here is hoping for a not typical City day. One of my favourite days to be at the game and watch City, will have to make do with the stream and hope the internet doesn't let me down here.
