No, it’s crazy my lad can watch it in Thailand though, don’t make sense. Vital revenue is lost through this stupid rule. I’d go. Last train back from Barrow probably before the final whistle with time added on so would have gone to JB’s

I think it was Bob Lord, Burnley's chairman, who got it enshrined in law that no game could be shown live in the UK, at 3pm on a Saturday. Hence, iFollow can be watched on a Tuesday evening, but not Saturday. The new contract challenged this, but apparently, it was voted against change, so sadly, it will remain in place.
