As far as I can work out £45 for the season, lets you see the full matches 24hrs late on the official website.Works out just under £1 per league match.What do you think?
 


Terrible deal. £45 to be able to watch the match 24 hours later, thanks SAFC, that means I can watch it at midnight, on a Sunday. Ridiculous. In the days of on demand and instant TV everywhere they pull this out of the hat because the iFollow service wasn't good enough. Bah.
 
I do sort of want to download all the full matches so they can be shared in the future but I'm not spending 45 quid to do so.

Supposedly you can sign up later in the season and only pay for how long is left, so may pay 5 quid in the last month and then download them all then

absolute load of rubbish. That's being kind too. Totally out of touch with the modern world of instant, rolling news.

This. You can watch ten minute highlights the next day on any number of websites. I swear our club is still run by old men in suits smoking and spanking the secretaries arse every time she has the sheer audacity to walk in the board room.

The problem is we are limited due to the TV deals. As with Prem highlights Sky have the rights to show the first "full highlights" should they choose to do so, then Channel 5 have the rights to show the highlights, and then clubs can show the highlights on their website. Price wise we have to charge what we are told by the EFL and the rights holders.

I'm sure if the club could, they'd rather have just kept the same setup as last season. Free total access.
 
Isn't it primarily a service intended for non-local & overseas fans? (Giving some accessibility to those who can't attend home games, or tune into local radio)...

Then why not sign up for iFollow? I'd be more than happy to pay £110 a season to watch every game. I've signed up for every other service that showed the Premier League over the years I have lived here. I'm happy to pay for a legal service, this solution is terrible.

Does seem f***ing daft to say they didn't go for ifollow because they weren't sure it'd be good value, then say you can listen on the radio and watch a day late for £45!

They do not want people watching the match on a stream, it's as simple as that.

Championship games are rarely shown the way the premiership is on streams

You get one main 3pm game live on a Saturday on a stream unlike every premiership match

I watched the Fulham game on Saturday
