    It won't be on iPlayer. The BBC don't show Football League games. It might be on iFollow though.

    Ha cheers mate. Getting my 'i's' mixed up clearly. I have edited accordingly. I can't make the game so hoping the club show it on iFollow, just wondering if anyone on here knows. I've been on website but can't see anything on there..

    The South Yorkshire Police have confirmed that the game will NOT be on IFollow due to it being played on a Sunday lunchtime.
    This decision has been made with the agreement of Barnsley Football Club.
    The reason given is that people who would normally watch the game who may be on the Continent or further east in an advanced time zone would be able to purchase alcoholic drinks and become intoxicated and may cause trouble abroad. "We have good, solid reasons for imposing this restriction with this particular match," a police spokesman said. "We would not wish to be the cause of potential trouble abroad and then have to explain ourselves afterwards when faced with recrimination."
    Any supporter captured on police camera holding a mobile phone, camera or other similar device will be immediately ejected from the ground under suspicion of filming the game with a view to streaming it live to the outside. "There is no way will any video be allowed to be taken or shewn" said the spokesman.
    The game will not be shown on IFollow in the UK since it was due to have been played on the Saturday afternoon until South Yorkshire Police demanded it be moved to Sunday. Therefore it is still being classed as a Saturday game which would not have been on IFollow due to broadcasting restrictions.
    Life's a bitch isn't it.
