For away games if we sell loads we get get loads of revenue. If we sold 10,000 we would get 9500 £5’s. For home games we get all revenue for home supporters buying ( we are quite unusual in having season ticket holders as most clubs did not sell them ) ( appreciate the club are giving them free ) the first 500 away supporters, then 50% of additional away following. Hopefully we will see less advertising of illegal streams as this money ( especially for the smaller clubs ) will be vital. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Well b back - Thanks for trimming down my post about this on the ‘ Crowd to Return thread. I didn’t realise there was irrelevant stuff on there. There’s been less stream advertising on here recently as City 1st seems to have taken another sabbatical from the board.

Really it probably warranted a thread of its own as every week you will see that same question coming up and the usual suspects telling people to use other streams and then saying the club doesn’t spend any money.

Sideshow Tim 110 Posted September 22, 2020 Nope, it was quite clear in the documentation from the club. Season ticket holders will get home games and all away MIDWEEK games for free. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Matt Juler 140 Posted September 22, 2020 (edited) The corresponding article on the NCFC website would suggest differently. https://www.canaries.co.uk/News/2020/august/ifollow-matches-to-be-streamed/ "Season ticket holders will receive a complimentary match pass for all matches except away matches that kick off at 3pm UK time on a Saturday. For those games, season ticket holders will be required to purchase a £10 match pass to view the broadcast." This is to help protect grassroots football that typically kicks off at 3pm on a Saturday, so you go and watch Norwich Utd instead of sitting at home watching a stream.

I suspect that the midweek only is the rule that applies? But yes, the site is ambiguous. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Matt Juler 140 Posted September 23, 2020 I think the confusion is due to there originally being no weekend games in the schedule that are not 3pm Saturday kick-offs, and typically in the Championship when a game is moved to either an early or late kick-off on a Saturday, or anytime on a Sunday, it's because the match has been selected by Sky Sports (which I believe would then mean there would be no free iFollow stream for season ticket holders). This is quite a unique situation due to the game being moved not for Sky Sports, but because of the League Cup game being played on Thursday evening, so it's a non-Saturday 3pm match that isn't on Sky Sports. Based on this, I'm expecting an email tomorrow with my free code for the match, but time will tell... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jim Smith 2,290 Posted September 23, 2020 I know I asked this the other day and its a separate point to whether the Bournemouth away game should be free because its not 3pm on a Saturday but have the club ever clarified whether we get all these streams for free PLUS a credit for every game we can;t attend. Personally I donlt see why that should be the case and had assumed that for all the home games we take up the option of the stream for then the £10 would come off any credit (so we'd get a credit of £18 for each home game we can;t physically attend) but others seem to have suggested that the streams are free on top of getting a full credit for each game we can;t go to. I've not actually seen confirmation/clarification of the above set out clearly anywhere. I don;t really see why we get free streams for any away games if we are getting £28 back for every home game we can't go to. If thats the case then i would be quite happy to pay for away streams if it helps the club. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jerrykerry 223 Posted September 23, 2020 It appears the get out will be that it's only moved for sky, so it will still be classed as a sat 3pn game for watching. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Canary dwarf 221 Posted September 23, 2020 I have no issue with paying a tenner , if the stream is decent but a lot of fans not happy about previous streams.😚 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jim Smith 2,290 Posted September 23, 2020 Club website confirms its £10 for this one as was originally scheduled as a saturday game. Bit of creativity there but as I have said I don;t see why season ticket holders should get streams free for any away games if they are getting refunds for all home games they can;t attend. I think the club should be charging and seeing this as a potential revenue stream, albeit a relatively modest one. Perhaps is a case to give away members some free away streams.

ZLF 261 Posted September 23, 2020 The huddersfield stream was mixed but thought the pne one worked well, sound and vision snyced and no noticeable lag. hopefully that level of service continues. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
