    I thought the wide angle was used too often when the action was on the opposite side of the pitch. Whilst I don't like too many close and zoom shots since it is good to get an overall view of what is going on 'off the ball', nevertheless watching it on a relatively decent sized monitor it was, at times, difficult to see what was happening on the ball and all I could see was tiny little figures scurrying about.

    what took 18 minutes?
    I got thrown out at approx 2:30 and didn't get back in until approx 3:!5 - that's 45 minutes by my maths- or did you mean it took 18 minutes after kick off- I am not too precise on the timing mine started again

    I notice the game was way behind real time. I was also keeping an eye of "flashscores" website and when it showed the match had finished the game on ifollow was at 82 minutes. Mind you I did relax and watch the rest of the game knowing they weren't going to equalise!
    Is this timelag normal?

    The first time ifollow got in touch, after being asked for help all afternoon, was just before quarter to five.

    I enjoyed it, worked fine through my firestick once I was allowed in. Better quality than I thought it would be.

    Not so big a lag no. I found mine had got a bit behind at half time but was able to fast forward to catch up and second half when I wasnt messing about with other things I think it more or less kept up

    Honestly don't know why the kicks off times didn't get held back until it was fixed. No different to fans getting stuck in traffic and games being delayed. Thankfully I got my pass free because of being a season ticket holder. Would have been livid if I had paid a tenner for it!

    Your stream must have fallen behind. The game finished on iFollow for me a few seconds before Fotmob send the game finished notification.

    You can click the 'Live' button at the bottom of the screen to get back to real time.

    I meant it took me 18 minutes into the game before I got in to watch.

    Same here Juddy G. It was half time when my son in a different part of Wakefield finally got access.
    He was telling me this morning there were numerous complaints posted on Twitter by fans of
    other teams that had subscribed to the iFollow service who were unable to initially view their game.
    Let's hope that with it being 1 pm kick off next Saturday, we don't experience a repeat.
