We have to be at the point in the contract where a break doesn't penalise us. We aren't there sadly. And you have to remember, this isn't a long-term thing. The pandemic has forced this. It seems the EFL provider for streaming cannot handle the workload. But there's no point us breaking contracts, having to build a website from scratch, creating a video platform when in the next month or so, this situation will revert to normal. Appreciate all that you're saying buddy.
Yep. Reds Reserved+ members get midweek away games on top of the homes. Nobody gets weekend aways. But they are still available to buy as a one-off. £10 a pop. And 100% comes into the club. Please let me know tomorrow night (if you've bought a pass) whether it was successful. See if the EFL have got Endeavour to up their game.
The club did say away games would be avail to reds plus members subject to EFL approval but its a weak way to sell things. You can have everything unless someone else stops it but then you can’t blame us.
Tbf I would buy my son a new shirt every season and my reds plus ticket or whatever its called was the same price as my season ticket and shirt otherwise. Just want to get back to Oakwell now, it just isnt the same on ifollow.
Don't say that. I felt so sorry for the Brentford fans not getting to enjoy their last match at Griffin park.
That’s easy - season ticket holders or not, you have to pay to see away games in normal times. That’s how clubs make extra revenue. The EFL have fairly stated, that they’ll continue this approach, and that if you want to see an away game on a Saturday, you pay £10. Having done away games in the past, £10 is a fraction of the actual cost. Also Whitey says the club get 100% of this money. All in all, I’m happy with it. I think we were spoilt as after the lock-down we got all games. The bigger issue for me, is the new platform doesn’t allow screen mirroring from iOS to Apple TV. It did last season.
Yes but the EFL have allowed midweek games to be included in the deal which is the part that seemed a bit odd for me as it didn't really fit in with what you say (which otherwise makes sense).
Just had a call from the club, while I'm still unhappy it was nice for someone to take the time to get in touch and I do really appreciate it.
