In RaWZ we trust....Amen.
It would be interesting (or not to some people) to hear Pete's view on the team if he shelled out about $140 to watch all of our matches, instead of his views based on 2 mins highlights.
Ha...Indeed...:D

only £110 ... from https://www.efl.com/iFollow/subscribe/

As part of your club's new website iFollow will provide overseas fans with the opportunity to live stream up to 46 live league games featuring their club within the regular EFL season. Season passes are now available for the equivalent of £110.
It's a bit poor that overseas fans get a much better deal than home based fans. Smacks of discrimination, I thought that was why 51.7% voted for Brexit? Take back control, etc...

People like me were denied a vote in the Brexit referendum, so it sounds like fair doos that we get live streaming into our living rooms whilst you lot get frostbite on the big bank!

Is every single Grecian game going to be available for live streaming?

Or is it 46 random games selected on a week by week basis? Involving mainly Championship clubs..

There's another thread on it somewhere but the proposal was that all EFL games would be streamed live but would only be available to those overseas. I'd guess that the coverage will be basic and the commentary would, at best, be whatever radio coverage there was (probably not very well syncronised).

One thing i'm not sure of is whether if you paid for Grecian Player (or whatever it'll be called) you could also access the equivalent for all other EFL teams as you currently can.

Thanks for the information.

By streamed live does that mean - live video? or live commentary?

Reports are the football league is going to double the revenue from the next TV deal with sky favourites to retain.

Have checked this out and sadly the answer is no. The Grecian Player was a much better deal.
