viprow usually does me fine when IFollow is unavailable.

I accept no responsibility for a horrible viruses. I don't think I've had any issues, but I'm pretty clueless.

oxf*rd me. This is killing my annual Ifoloow fee.

Hi Seth,
I hear ya, i'm stuck in the Alberta Rockies, Canada and when ifollow came out it was amazing to be able to watch games again. Its been great the last two seasons as we've been pretty dire in general, however, now that we've become more attractive to watch "SKY" are all over it!!

I've choose to subcribe to "DAZN" as they show alot of the championship games that Sky pick up so i know have about 90% of the games covered lol.

I'm looking at ESPN+ as another option but not much luck. Sky would be the ultimate but its to expensive, plus you need a VPN..

ESPN+ is great value in the US. IIRC about $5.99 a month and they've broadcast all of our games that have been on Sky Football
(not the game that was on Sky Arena).

Presumably you can make it appear as though you are in the US. I've managed to see some games on ESPN+ when our daughter was commentating on USL games,

Media loving us at the moment and Paunovic must have signed off on us getting a bit higher profile.

I thought Morro did alright - came across as a nice chap and they allowed a good chunk of time for discussion on us.

No more live Sky games until at least March, I shall be writing to my MP to complain. Perhaps we should also start a petition.

Well Bournemouth are on the TV a total of 4 times in this period so will be nice for the nation to see their further capitulation.

They’ll change some to sky, almost certainly.

Sounds like the powers that be at BBC Berks are cutting costs again & not letting Dellor & Gooding travel to Stoke on the pretext that it's Covid related. Funny how reporters can travel to report on other events around the country.

Are J Low and M Joy at the game or are they writing their reports and tweets off the back of the iFollow video?

So iFollow video is either home commentary or nothing at all. iFollow audio and BBC Radio Berks listeners will get commentary courtesy of Dellor and Gooding watching the iFollow video in Reading!

I'm not convinced Low ever goes based on the lack of a proper report ever being put out on get reading.

The HT score came up on soccer Saturday today while they were still commentating on the first half.

What the oxf*rd did Jonathan Low tweet? Whatever it was it upset Liam Moore and Yiadom retweeted it, he must have deleted the post pretty sharply.

Was it the article that he wrote suggesting that both Ejaria and Olise supposedly had rows with VP during the game and were promptly subbed?

If so, it's great that the players are seemingly closing ranks with the manager. It reinforces the perception that it really is a close-knit outfit that wins, draws and loses as a club.

[Pepe the Horseman]

He said they both squared up to the manager.

I'm assuming it was a link to this article

Not sure why but Adam Le Fondre is going to be on TalkSport this afternoon, sometime between now and 4pm.

Today I tried watching the game on a monitor whilst listening to the BBC Berks commentary on Freeview 719. Bizarrely, given Dellor and Gooding were commentating from the iFollow feed, their commentary coming over on Freeview 719 was a couple of seconds ahead of my own iFollow stream. I thought it would be the other way around.

Anyway, switched to and enjoyed the commentary from the Mick Gooding fan club on Rotherham's iFollow. Strangely, whilst they knew he'd now got his own estate agency business (one said he was surprised because he always thought he wasn't that bright!) they didn't seem to know that he is a commentator/pundit for BBC Berks!

Are you sure? One of them was talking about him not being able to come because of the covid, and then they talked about welcoming the Reading fans - sounded to me like they knew he commenated, but wouldn't be there... Maybe I hallucinated that bit.

Have to say I really enjoyed the commentary, clearly they wanted Rotherham to do well, but they were very fair. Olise their man of the match.

[Lower West]

They knew he was. As said they looked forward to meeting him every time Reading played there. Mick Gooding started his playing career at Rotherham! Probably went there as well as Reading manager.
