I wonder if this is in addition to ifollow or instead of it?

I think this is iFollow
Normally they don’t let you stream the 3pm games in this country

I think somebody has got their wires crossed

From what i know its nothing to do with Sky they just had to give their consent to allow it to happen.

This will be done by the EFL player but as it stands it will only apply until clubs are allowed to use 50% of their capacities. So with that in mind dont all go rushing off to sign up [ once you can ] as you may sign up for the season only to find the week later they pull the scheme and 3pm kicks wont be allowed to be shown.

And just to point out a mistake in the Mails report it should say except games that they are showing in other words if it's live on Sky it won't be available on the player

And as for season ticket holders you.ll get the BCD home games for free and half price for the away ones apparently.

The difference between this and how it worked when the championship resumed is that the FL will be running it and all clubs [ in lge one and two ] will all be doing exactly the same and they've overruled the big clubs [ Sunderland Portsmouth and Ipswich] and a fairer way of sharing the revenue amongst the clubs has been implemented i understand your share is linked to you average gate in relation to others but the ridiculous situation where Sunderland play at Accrington and they get to keep the cash from all the sales on their site while Accrington has to provide the stream, sell a few but don't even cover their costs while SAFC has made a fortune.

It's certainly a move in the right direction but a word of caution is that it all hinges on the 3pm blackout restrictions remaining lifted and if they were to be reimposed then the whole thing would cease overnight.

I assume Sky are simply lifting their restriction on existing iFollow or alternative means of streaming for as long as there is a significant limit to attendances which are likely to be home fans only.

All our games will be live on iptv, much cheaper alternative

Cheaper maybe but I'd rather the money go to the club.

Confirmed by the club. All games will be streamed live via iFollow while there is restricted ground capacity:

I take it this is £10 per game and not a tenner for as long as it goes on?

Will Season Ticket holders get free access to the streamed games prior to attending games in October ?

...any match not shown live on Sky to fans who purchase individual match passes for £10.

so, yes, £10 per game. I'm unsure what proportion the club receives.

Home League Games yes

This is a good service but i think £10 is too expensive. Maybe if i could actually watch it on a tv i'd consider a couple of matches but not streamed to laptop, also when i pay to get in at HS i do in the knowledge that all that money goes to the club.

How much will the club get from the £10?

Can you consider connecting your laptop to your tv?

Most recent laptops have a mini-HDMI out socket and you can buy a lead relatively cheaply from the likes of ebay to connect to your tv's HDMI input.

Similarly with a smartphone - USB B or C to HDMI leads are available.

If you have a smart tv you should be able to access it through the tv's browser or, alternatively', cast the screen from your phone/laptop to the tv. (Get me, talking all techno!). I've never achieved it but I believe it can be done.

I inquired & was told we get 70% which is great really when you consider the EFL pay for all the logistics etc
