    Personally, I think iFollow is better. Easier to get logged on & most games have Matt commentating. That fella today was well lame, & could hear more of Keith Hill, swearing for England..o_O

    I like Matt's commentary but I just felt it was more like actually being there today and juat seemed more polished.

    I only saw second half, hadn’t been keeping up with the process. Just tried to pay my fare via iFollow. Then went round houses to register & log on. it was a crap match anyway, only notable for being played in daylight. Nobody really showed up for us, maybe Helik.?
    at least we’ll be on regular telly for semis & final..;)

    I know all about that but I might have to walk there. Ryanair cancelled flights up to the end of March and Jet2 will probably follow suit. Who knows how this latest crisis is going to pan out? There might be a total ban on air and sea travel to the UK until ........ whenever. As a non-resident I’ll be an illegal immigrant after 31 March.

    Something has to give somewhere or there might be crowds of people like me queuing up for a slot in a rubber dinghy at Calais!

    I'm not sure if you know that you can get VPNs for free? Opera browser for example has a free one built in.

    I thought that the coverage today was excellent compared with league matches. I live on the Isle of Man and have complained to iFollow a few times to get my money back due to very poor quality of league games. I was also having to use the lowest quality of reception as well. The Internet is usually fuzzy here on the Isle of Man, but today I would give the providers 10 out of 10. The Internet always seams to be weather dependant.
    Let's hope the next league game I watch is as good as todays.

    No I didn’t know that. How does that work? Just use Opera instead of chrome and I get VPN cover allowing me to hide where I am? I’ve never used a VPN so I’m pretty clueless about it

    Pretty much! Open Opera, go to Menu - Settings - Privacy - VPN and then in your address bar it will show if it's on or off and where you are set to. Free ones are not always great for streaming as there is limited bandwidth but it's worth a go. If you google, you may find which ones are best but Opera is handy as you don't have to download anything.
