iFollow - Arcane Astral Aeons - 06-06-2020
hoe does this work?
never used it before,but apparently season ticket holders can watch the remaining games
any advice would be appreciated

I watch it occasionally when working away but pay for each match. It’s just streamed on the WBA app with Albion biased commentary. But I don’t really mind that!

This is a silly question, but is it only available to watch on a tablet/laptop, mobile etc, or can it be watched through a tv?

You can use Chromecast to watch it through your tv but it cannot be used directly from the tv.

Ok, thanks for that, but you’re talking to someone who isn’t very tech savvy here
How would I do that?

You may not need anything else, can you go on the internet through your tv?
If you can then you can watch iFollow that way. What a Chromecast device does is it plugs into your tv and picks up a signal from your mobile/laptop and reproduces it on your tv. However they are not cheap, there is another way of doing this for free if you have a home network and your tv is connected to your router, as many are these days. If that is the case post it up and I will tell you a few ways you can connect this up. Are you aware the first two games are on Sky anyway, and more are planned so I am wondering if some STH's have not been a little short changed if they have taken the iFollow option, when it appears there will be other ways of watching the games.

Ah, thanks for that. Yes, we do have a smart tv (Sony) and can access YouTube etc through the router.
Also have Skysports and was in 2 minds what to do about iFollow. As well as the first 2 games I reckon the match against Fulham will also be televised. I guess others could also be picked if results make things tighter at the top
. Really not sure whether to rely on Sky televising more of our games and then just buy iFollow for the individual matches that will not be covered or just go for option 1 that has been offered by the club. Hate listening on local radio, as they make it sound like a goal is going to be scored every minute, can’t stand that tension!!!! I’m guessing the midweek sky red button coverage won’t be continued when we restart. Even though the coverage was poor it was better than nothing. Thanks again for your help.

If you choose to watch I follow for rest of season with your season ticket and code , and have sky don’t bother it’s cheaper to have refund or credit for next season as now 3 of our first 5 are on sky. After Blues and Brentford were picked now the Derby match is a 5pm ko on the 8th July. Just buy I follow for matches for not on sky.

Yes, I’ve decided now to have a credit for next season’s season ticket ( whenever that might be) and get individual passes for iFollow for the games that won’t be televised. If the coverage isn’t very good I will have to rely on local radio or free internet streams
