Ive just got a code through for Stoke Game Wednesday I thought we only received for Home games not Away?
Does anyone know if the stoke match will be on Sky’s red button service? I’ve gone to record the match on previous occasions and it gives you the option of which one you want to record. This time it left me only with the Brentford/Owls match to sit through
Don't think it is on red button mate or it wouldn't be available "free" to Reserved + members. That's my understanding but I could be wrong.
I thought they all were on the red button, that's why they put split them up between games on a Tuesday and Wednesday. EDIT, Yes all Championship games are on the sky red button. https://www.skysports.com/watch/football-on-sky
Yes it’s on the red button however as it’s not the main game you’ll not be able to record, can watch the stream live though.
Why the need for 2 tier system in the the first place and the midweek away games where added after the fact.
Wasn't the original package ALL away games on iFollow but the EFL only allowed us to do the midweek ones? Might be mistaken on that. It's simple business sense to give fans the opportunity to part with more money up front for greater rewards and access. It's also tiers by personal choice rather than just having it forced on you with no input.
Yes it was. It was if allowed all away games which was watered down to just midweek due to EFL restrictions.
I seem to recall that when I renewed on the early bird offer, the only difference I could see mentioned was that reserved plus got a ‘free shirt’ for an additional £40? Or so. I’m not bothered about getting a shirt so only went for the basic package, I seem to recall that away matches on iFollow included were mentioned after I had renewed. The irony being, had they of been mentioned at the start, I would probably have paid the extra. MrsHalls does make a valid point about the need to make two tiers though, almost a ‘better fan’ inference when in reality the club should have been grateful to every fan that was able and willing to invest in and support the club at a time when we didn’t even know what we would get in return ie attendance or not, full season etc.
But you also got the current shirt of choice (at the same cost differential) so you were never out of pocket. They were reasonably clear about EFL regs permitting with regards to away broadcasts.
Yes you're right. Getting the reserved plus package was the same cost as the normal season ticket and new season shirt, so for me the away games are an added bonus. Shame they wouldn't let us have the Saturday away ones as well like last season but never mind.
I dont think you recall correctly - I remember it being a significant reason why I renewed with the Reserved + as I didnt expect us to be going to games until after Christmas - at least not away ones - so it seemed a no brainer if there was a good chance of getting "free" iFollow passes. I also got a free shirt which is a nice to have but not someting I would have spent £40 on on its own
