    So those people that have opted for the 4 game Flexi won't have access to the games on iFollow then, is that right?

    Can someone explain what this means.

    Are these games on Sky Sports too and also made available on iFollow?

    Does BFC see this as in lieu of the games as stated so does the flexi games, refunds etc mean you are ineligible

    Ill await my letter on ST's and the rest of the season rom the club to understand it properly

    I my reading of that is its up to the club - they could make the iFollow "Free" access conditional on not taking the flex 4 game ticket if they chose
    They Barnsley havent actually said whether they will or not

    I'd take issue with the use of the word Free anyway - I have paid for the remaining 4 home matches which I cant watch - this is at best a substitute

    If for example your holiday which you paid for is cancelled -but you are offered a replacement in the autumn instead instead of a refund you dont have a free holiday

    Should be free for all ST holders, if they want more to stump up for next season.

    I took it as EFL said this could be used by clubs instead of a refund but Barnsley FC have already said we can have a refund/flexi-ticket and they will also let current season ticket holders have this for free. Our choice has no bearing on that.

    What I don’t like is the EFL said clubs can just provide this and not give a refund. An iFollow subscription is not what was offered at point of sale and I do not think can be given as a substitute with no refund option.

    I think it is free as the club are offering refunds (as they should) and have said we can have this too. That makes this a free extra. If a club didn’t give a refund then this wouldn’t be free, and to me, wouldn’t be fulfilling the original terms of sale.

    Has the club said you can have a refund and still have this too?

    We don't have enough people at the club to tell them that 'south stand' as a term is also proper $hite so no I'd guess not

    No but as they said we could have one and they’ve not said anything to the contrary then I’d presume yes. The content of this post will have been provided to all clubs by the EFL so it’s them saying it could be instead of, not BFC.
