    As there doesn't seem to be much in the way of prize money if anything in these rounds, does this competition cost us money to be in with no gate receipts?

    I wonder how the ifollow money is split for cup games?

    Split based on which site you buy it from, or split 50/50? I’m guessing Chelsea use some other system to ifollow too, so not sure what difference that would make

    It's a shame is that. I will buy it to watch on iFollow as it's not so often we get to watch our club play at one of the biggest teams in the country.

    Because more people will watch it and they’ll sell more ads. It’s fair enough.

    People moan when man utd are always on even though they’re crap (or have been for a few years, getting better now it appears), and I was guilty myself of moaning about how often Leeds were the live efl game.

    It was and is the right call - more people watch, more money generated and more of your subscribers kept happy.

    Bugger! With the EFL restrictions, it means I can only listen on iFollow. If it was on Sky, I could’ve watched on ESPN+.

    Ok so we might still get a little pot from it then? If we get half of what Chelsea manage to sell through their own service, what ever that is - hopefully a lot of fans will watch it on their end!
