Kosovo'sNo.9 Posted August 1, 2019 Share Posted August 1, 2019 I'll be spending next season abroad so considering getting the International iFollow for the season, but wouldn't mind some opinions before I splash out £110. Basically is it good or not, is it worth spending or is it a rip off? Let me know of your opinions please. UTO!!! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted August 1, 2019 Share Posted August 1, 2019 I'll say what I always say. iFollow is great for us expats as long as Wednesday aren't entertaining or up at the top of the league. If any of those two things happen then we will be on Sky or on Blackout for a lot of matches. That means no iFollow coverage and trying to find streams or using a IPTV sub to watch us.

darra Posted August 1, 2019 Share Posted August 1, 2019 (edited) Never really had a problem with it It's the only way I can listen as I can't get radio Sheffield where I live. You also get two Wednesdayite commentators. In John Pearson and Rob O'Neill. Finally there's none if this going around the grounds just as we're about to take a free-kick at the edge of their area. Can't comment on the overseas content but as understand it they've updated the number if cameras and my friends abroad who use it have few complaints Edited August 1, 2019 by darra Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lee Davies Posted August 1, 2019 Share Posted August 1, 2019 Why don't you get it this year on a Fire stick app and try it with any games you don't go to? Only 50quid I've lived overseas and its very good now. It started with no commentary but now its the full shabang! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quist Posted August 1, 2019 Share Posted August 1, 2019 This year there will be more camera coverage than last year. I understand 4 per game. So pictures will improve be similar to those shown on you tube for Espanyol game with commentary. If I was abroad would certainly watch games I am not certain which is the best overall method. If you have sky subscription you would be totally covered for all games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its great being able to watch all the games, and they’ve improved coverage and quality year on year. Sky games aren’t online so I either use nowtv via a VPN for those (express VPN is my choice) although last season I took out a DAZN subscription as well...so will probably stick with that meaning all games covered Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul.. Posted August 1, 2019 Share Posted August 1, 2019 It's a ripoff, IPTV is the better value for money then you also get Sky/ESPN for when we're not on iFollow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's an interesting attitude. It's a ripoff to buy strawberries from the supermarket when it's better value to take them from people's allotments. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bobness Posted August 1, 2019 Share Posted August 1, 2019 It has gotten progressively better over the years. You can always give it a try for a single match fee, and if you like it, subscribe for the year, if you feel it will offer better value throughout the season.

Philb125 Posted August 1, 2019 Share Posted August 1, 2019 Third year of using it for me. Very convenient and great to be able to watch where ever you are. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MartinOwlMan Posted August 1, 2019 Share Posted August 1, 2019 I love it and as an Owl I much prefer its pro-Wednesday coverage to Sky’s “unbiased” drivel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
new zealand owl Posted August 1, 2019 Share Posted August 1, 2019 Does it still take 48 hours for the game to be available on demand? With kick off times between 2am and 4am here I would need it to be available on demand within a few hours of the game finishing for me to buy it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Bulgaria Posted August 1, 2019 Share Posted August 1, 2019 (edited) I have it and it's ok... Sometime it freezes so I just go to the radio commentary. I would recommend buying it just for the cheesy halftime music. Edited August 1, 2019 by Bulgaria Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Basically is it good or not, is it worth spending or is it a rip off? This is my 3rd season on iFollow and I'd rate it...8.5/10. Be sure to have a decent PC, updated with all current drivers, a good internet connection (preferably wired, not wireless), make sure to select the highest 720p HD feed on the day and you'll have very few problems. Not many people either can, or know, to do any of what I have mentioned and run into issues that are not the 'fault' of iFollow at all. Only issues I've had have been where I've deviated from the norm and tried to watch in a different location/mobile. On my PC (mostly streaming to my TV via Chromecast) it's been near faultless. Odd times the audio will be out of sync, but that's a Chromecast issue, not an iFollow issue. If you have any kind of technical question, chuck me a PM and I'd be glad to answer. :) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest wilyfox Posted August 1, 2019 Share Posted August 1, 2019 It's like a conjugal visit... You only get what you want if it doesn't clash with owt on telly, and it's never quite as good as you'd hoped. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
