Do we have any fellow Potters on here living in NYC?
Wondering if anyone has any specifics on streaming the games for the upcoming season...I've read into iFollow but I'm not convinced it's worth the money if I can only get a handful of games...
I wish NBC extended to Championship coverage too but not the case.

I'm in the Toronto area and I emailed the club to inquire if they would be signing on to ifollow. I had reply from the clubs fan liason and he basically said that the club has made no decision on ifollow. I would take that as a no. Looks like International Stoke City fans will be following scores and highlights on the clubs website though I think this message board provides the best method of following the club as a fan. Really hope to see us bck in the Prem in 2019-2020.

Clubs are allowed show games on their own websites independently of ifollow.

I'm probably the only Stokie living on the Upper East Side! Things look bleak for TV coverage next season. I would gladly pay for iFollow etc. but that's highly unlikely due to the myopic view of Stoke's marketing department!

I doubt there are enough of us to make it worth their while to stream on iFollow. Mind you making bad business decisions hasn’t always held them back in the past.

There is a new York supporters club my mate ended up in a pub that runs it purely by coincidence. Is it the same pub as mentioned above?

I emailed the club yesterday and they got back to me. They're looking into streaming options but haven't made an official decision just yet. The thought of not being able to watch them for the full 90 next season is disappointing to say the least...I know it's ultimately a business decision but with sport/football, accessibility for supporters should 100% trump whether it's lucrative for the club or not. Having a live stream for overseas fans should be an easy decision IMO, regardless of how many will tune in.

In 2014 I went into Fitzgeralds which claimed to be a Stoke pub. It wasn't at all really In 2016 I went to a pub ran by a Stokie although he wasn't there when I went in.
