Changing Times 12,218 Posted May 3, 2022 Share Posted May 3, 2022 If that's right then it's up to Preston. Hopefully someone at Boro is having a word with them to try and get it on. Link to post Share on other sites
TeaCider24 12,401 Posted May 3, 2022 Share Posted May 3, 2022 (edited) It's not available on their website. They do an hour and a half of build up at Preston? 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites
Changing Times 12,218 Posted May 3, 2022 Share Posted May 3, 2022 Buggers. Probably want to sell as many tickets as possible and figure that plenty of Boro might get tickets in their end. Can't blame them I suppose. Link to post Share on other sites

Someone was putting a screenshot of all the available seats in the Preston end so it's definitely happening I think! Link to post Share on other sites
TeaCider24 12,401 Posted May 3, 2022 Share Posted May 3, 2022 Just download the Opera browser which comes with a VPN, then you can watch the match for £10 on the MFC website, even in the UK. It's technically breaking the rules, but you're still giving the club money and not relying on dodgy websites. 3 Link to post Share on other sites

If they were clever about it then they'd make iFollow available on Saturday morning, or Friday night perhaps. Sell as many tickets as you can and then sell the iFollow passes as well.

I can understand why it's a grey area and you probably won't see VPN providers saying "here's how to watch your favourite club on iFollow every game!" but I'm not sure it actually breaks any rules? I suspect the club themselves don't frown at it privately either, it's an extra revenue stream from somewhat tech-savvy people, large majority of whom wouldn't have otherwise attended the match.

Yeah, they'd definitely be able to stop illicit streaming through the legitimate channels if they actually wanted to, but I've given club well over £100 through iFollow for away games this season and had no issues. They're on about scrapping the blackout anyway, so hopefully they see sense soon as this site alone is proof of how many fans will just watch it on dodgy streams in the current system and they can at least try and profit from it. 😂 Link to post Share on other sites

Riverside94 952 Posted May 4, 2022 Share Posted May 4, 2022 With streaming games I’m sure they could do something where it’s available to all people including UK but they could do something say where match is delayed half hour so you can start watching from 3:30. Wouldn’t that solve the issue? Link to post Share on other sites

Johnmfc81 902 Posted May 4, 2022 Share Posted May 4, 2022 (edited) I've watched all the games online that's not on sky, via the clubs streaming. I mean i live in Wales so it's technically a foreign country right... Link to post Share on other sites

I just hope we go for it, it's a Cup Final of sorts with nothing to lose. Winning is all that matters, preferably by as many goals as possible. Hopefully Jones, McNair and Tav all fit. yeah we need to see that big game fight, I'm hoping he can pull it out of them like he did in the cup 1 Link to post Share on other sites
