    According to a kind email sent to me by the club today. All the details and credit card credentials I gave over in confidence and with assurances from a blonde lady in an anorak with a microphone at the pitchside have disappeared off into the internet and now I am instructed that I will create a new account with ifollow.

    With full details handover of course and 'untick here if you do not wish to not unsubscribe from marketing emails', now enter the PIN we have sent you by SMS. Resend? Enter again. Re-enter. Choose a password. A longer one. With a number and a special character. You know the process.

    £2.50 to listen to a match. Like radio in the old days. £10 a match for watching a video, but ONLY for those viewers who are tuning in from around the globe. Because of the UK rights being sold to Sky Super Soccer Entertainment and Betting Corp (flashing lights, fireworks go off) it is most STRICTLY forbidden for those located within the UK to see ANY of the matches. None. Prohibited. I shall expect anyone in the shoutbox referring to seeing any live action to tell us from what distant part of the planet he or she is tuning in.

    Anyone considering use of a free VPN to obtain an overseas IP address such as Proton https://protonvpn.com/free-vpn/windows would simply be playing an underhand trick and will certainly never have their soul go to heaven.

    Of course many of us, who find ourselves financially inconvenienced, having left our wallets on our grand pianers, might have a problem finding a tenner just to watch our gallant lads passing it around from side to side and then Raj to airkick, sometimes in mute silence or switching suddenly to Sunderland v Bristol city or some other random match for 3 minutes. From what I can work out, whilst our overseas brethren are enjoying the games screened live over there, those of us who might like to spend a Saturday afternoon taking a nice stroll to a local reservoir, river, canal, aquadrome, waterfall or other watery attraction instead, should find no obstacles in their way.


    However:-

    "Video streaming will not be available internationally for any Carabao Cup or Emirates FA Cup ties."

    So I should expect that will mean an extreme parched drought for any cup games. Well that should only be 2 matches as far as we're concerned anyway. No great loss.

    The undeniable truth First Team Captain

    If we play the kids (excluding the 5 kids drafted into the first team to cover the leavers) and Sissoko, it could still be a great loss.
