Only get home for a couple of games a year so glad to find this www.efl.com/iFollow/. Looks like we can continue watching next year, with either the EFL app or on the club website depending on what Stoke decide to do.

yes, it has been a lot easier to see games in the last 10 years being in the prem, and streaming champ games is getting better in the last few according to a mate that follows Derby.

Looks like we can continue watching next year, with either the EFL app or on the club website depending on what Stoke decide to do. It's important to note, none of the recently relegated teams have taken the opportunity to use ifollow. NONE. Part reason has been that they have their own websites with highlights and streaming of games. Stoke city have Stoke city+... What a disaster that had been since its creation, this season's pre season friendly streams were a dive example of that. My bet is that they will continue with their own service, they won't invest in anything unnecessary as we always do everything on the cheap and we too will state "watch highlights, live feeds and updates on crap+". If you look at the evidence, it's probably not going to happen. So no way to watch what so ever.

musik linked this www.viafree.se/ the other day, he says they stream all championship matches. I used a VPN to get it working on Chrome, Hola extension to be exact.

musik linked this www.viafree.se/ the other day, he says they stream all championship matches. I used a VPN to get it working on Chrome, Hola extension to be exact. I have no idea what this VPN, Hola extension you're talking about is - and why. Correction: Not ALL Championship games, but some games every week. I expect to see Stoke on my mobile phone/pc/casted to tv, at least 1-2 times per month next season. It would be great to see at least 15 of those league games. As a complement, perhaps I will register at Bet365 online. They show Championship games regularly. So some games further there perhaps, on mobile phone/pc or cable connected to tv. I also read somewhere here on the board ESPN will show some Championship games. I dunno, maybe some involving Stoke? Let's see. It's possible for me to buy ESPN here to be included in the tv channel package. On Eurosport here in Sweden I have been able to see some games from the Cup this season. If Stoke advance and is selected, maybe one game there. This season I haven't seen a single game(!), since we've been in the PL (only expensive ViaSat (£430) have shown it here), but have listened to matches on Radio Stoke Live! 2018/19 season: Viafree+Bet365+ESPN+Eurosport+ Radio Stoke A huge difference for me: from 0 to approx 20 league games. And maybe iFollow?

Well, with the decisions made these past two seasons, I'm sure Stoke's own service for streaming its games should be an outstanding product of the highest quality. But, I've no choice but to wait and see with Stoke's own or iFollow or ESPN. Fox Sports will show some FA cup stuff, but unless Stoke is playing a "big" PL club and is still in the hunt, it ain't gonna be shown. Good times.

Might I suggest we start writing to the club as individuals to get them to sign up with ifollow, or stream games on the club site for overseas fans?

Question for us yanks. Does ESPN+ show all Championship games lives or just a selection? I looked at their website and they are showing replays of recent games. It’s only $4.99 a month, which seems very reasonable.

If Stoke don't use iFollow, it may be possible to purchase the match from the opposition's website.

It’s only $4.99 a month, which seems very reasonable. I believe ESPN will be showing 4-5 games per week for the Championship next season, so nowhere near all games but better than nowt I suppose. Let’s hope the club does the right thing and strikes a deal to offer the iFollow service for our merry band of exiles.

In Australia Bein have tv rights to the efl and games shown on bein aren't allowed to be ifollowed.
I have a fear of the commercial department of SCFC not really grasping the situation and dithering on it.

The network that thinks the Yankees and Red Sox are the only two teams in baseball. The network that thinks Mike Golic is a talent and deserves a show. But I digress... Having said that, I do like a few of their "30 For 30" shows.

I've tried to make a bit of an effort to "integrate" with my Colonial hosts by following some US Sports, but how anyone can watch Baseball for hours on end is beyond me. I'l also refusing to participate, since the name of my local team is the Richmond Flying Squirrels. Flying fucking Squirrels!! What's that all about? I've been to a couple of games and it just seems like an excuse to sell a lot of hot dogs to kids who should be hitting the slim fast.

It should be at the very top of the agenda of the Supporters Council going forwards. It would give them some much needed credibility if they got a commitment to it.

You forgot the UC Santa Cruz Banana Slugs, UC Irvine Anteaters, NC School for the Arts Fighting Pickles, Arizona State Sun Devils, University of Akron Zips (as in zippers), Campbell Fighting Camels, Evansville Purple Aces, University of Idaho Vandals, University of Minnesota Golden Gophers, Scottsdale Fighting Artichokes, and Evergreen State Geoducks. Personally I like these unique weird names over the tigers, bears, etc.

I've been to a couple of games and it just seems like an excuse to sell a lot of hot dogs to kids who should be hitting the slim fast. Baseball is dreadful. I appreciate their amazing hand-eye coordination and reaction skills, but it's hard to watch. The upside is that the teams know it's boring, so there is some great mascot entertainment. Usually the away mascot travels to the game as well. Here are a few of my favorites. Instead of having little kids walk out with the players, they do this. Security staff also get in on the act. Can you imagine an English football steward doing this? The NFL and NBA also have some good mascot acts. Hands down the best is the Jacksonville Jaguars mascot. He performed at Wembley and was a guest mascot at Crystal Palace once. I love this one. Some Englishmen may find these acts cringeworthy, but I think they're great.

Most of the live sky games and often one from the 3pm kick offs.
