I know the Coachhouse showed the Chesterfield away game live on Ifollow. I messaged them on Saturday asking them not to show home games as it would impact the gate and they appeared to have relented.

However, on their facebook page today, they are advertising Town V Derby live tonight. So they look to have changed their stance, absolutely disgraceful IMO. They are selfish and greedy and will damage the club. The Coachy is my local, I will boycott the place if they continue. I can to a degree understand them streaming away games, as they away club gets all the gate receipts I believe. But not home games.

I believe the club are aware and have reported them to the EFL, I am not sure of the legalities but it would be useful if Town fans could comment on their facebook page.

By the way, the Derby game is not on IFollow tonight so anyone turning up there tonight to watch Town will be disappointed.

Update - they have removed one thread which received numerous negative comments but currently still have a graphic on their page advertising the game in the pub.

I reckon they have removed the main advert as they now know the league cup game isn't streamed. I will keep an eye on them and report back. If anyone hears of any other pubs doing similar, please post and please let the club know as it will damage the attendances.

I've messaged the owner politely requesting he reconsiders screening home games.

How do they manage to show the game, surely the club has to allow it first?
Or am I missing something?

I believe the EFL own the rights. The short answer is they can't show the game, but the are doing anyway. They definitely can't show tonights game v Derby, Ifollow only covers EFL games, and I've checked and it isn't on some foreign satellite either.

If only there was someone at the club who was good at threatening legal action  

In all seriousness it's completely out of order and could hurt gates. I'm sure it will be stopped.

This wont happen.
They have used false information to get the ifolloe account and there will be a clause in the t&c's about public broadcasting
