Yes, i didn't get one last time we were home, it just allowed me to watch live an hour before the game. That must have been really interesting

Working, but got constant on and off buffering. Hope it's not like this during the game. Saturday was the worst iFollow stream yet. Kept losing connection, hanging, buffering etc. Throughout the entire game. It's normally pretty bad at the start of the game and then works OK, but this was constant. I use Amazon Silk browser on my Firestick. Wondering if this app is the issue and I should start reverting to using my laptop plugged into the telly (more of a hassle to set up - and a pain in the arse to have to get off the sofa to refresh if it hangs or I need to press "live" to catch up with play if it has fallen behind). My WiFi / broadband is fine.. over 200Mbps.. The EFL did tweet on Saturday that there were issues with iFollow - but everyone else I spoke to seemed to have an OK stream by that point.

I live in the countryside of wick st Lawrence, my internet speed rarely gets above 12mbs as we have no superfast in the village and my ifollow stream was perfect.
I would think it was your setup

Sleepy I am constantly reading on the forum ref problems with iFollow. I have never had any of these problems so can only recommend what I do. Simply use google chrome. I live in Winterbourne and my broadband is ok not fantastic. I do use a direct connection to my router and not WiFi though. Give it a go next time.

Chrome wired into the telly seems to work OK for me. I usually have to refresh a few times to get the stream going, but on the whole its been reliable. Thats over Wifi. Any stuttering has been my end due to slow connection.

Unfortunately I had no problems whatsoever with iFollow and managed to watch the entire game.......I'd have given my back teeth to have buffering instead!!

I have used my laptop (plugged into TV using HDMI) a few times.. it's just a slight ballache to set up (and runs the risk of the kids interfering with it while the game is on ) When I discovered I could use the browser on the firestick I was delighted.. but the (stream) performance has been awful via that method recently, so I guess I will have to revert back to the laptop.. especially as we are away on Saturday so I will have to pay a tenner.. and we're playing Swindon too.. relegation 6 pointer.. with a caretaker manager.. can't wait

Ifollow was absolutely hopeless on Saturday, didnt see a kick, just a black screen and a chat with 5 separate ifollow agents who just spouted stock phrases like use a different browsers / device and clear your cookies and cache. They arent fit for the job, really frustrating.
They had a particularly bad day on Saturday, I've watched nearly every game prior to this, not without issues, but this was beyond. If you check the efl twitter there were a lot of problems across their whole platform on Saturday.
