"Bolton Wanderers fans complain about iFollow blackouts in Grimsby game"

No doubt the EFL will fine us £100K and give us a 15 point deduction knowing them.

When Leeds trainer Les Cocker was once told Norman Hunter had broken a leg, he asked: “Whose is it?”

They should take it as a blessing that they didn't have to watch their team being battered by the team at the bottom of the football league

I had a couple of them yesterday while at 1-0 up...Bolton had a corner when it dropped out....took me about 3 mins to log out log back ....I was dreading turning it back on and seeing them equalised......
Same at start of second half.

Happened once in both halves. We quickly put BBC Radio Humberside on freeview whilst we refreshed the laptop and restarted the video. Probably missed 30 seconds the first time and 15 seconds the next time.

You don't expect a Bolton fan to work that out do you?    



If the football is bad you can always watch the gulls.

Sod all to do with GTFC or any other club. A contracted company is responsible for the streaming service as well as the fitting and maintaining the boxes that the cameramen plug into and I think Sky contract out the employing of the cameramen..

There was a cameraman filming the game as per usual plus another one doing the In Vision back to Sky Sports during the game.

Same here, one involuntary log out, straight back in. When it started iFollow was pretty sketchy but it has improved substantially in my view

Given all the stick iFollow had at the start of the season I think it’s been brilliant, an absolute life saver with nothing else to do in lockdown despite the fact it’s been a excrement season. Mine has crashed once all season and that was probably my internet connection.

Been superb coverage all season. Rarely miss a beat.
Some of the commentators have left a lot to be desired, some are really biased towards their team.
Seen every Town game possible without leaving the games-room!
The only problem will be if we are relegated you cannot get the National League on i-follow at the moment!
