I'm sure its been answered before but can someone explain to me why some games you get the videos and some you don't? Tonight I'm watching from Australia (wink wink) and have grabbed a £10 pass. Sometimes this isn't available so if I went for the season pass at £170 how many games would I expect to get for that?

I'm sure it's bound up with rights for this and that per Sky etc. - but I don't get it. It seems random to me at the moment, and I don't like random things when I know they're not really random at all.

Cheers, UTB tonight (and also forever more for that matter. Until we invent a new intergalactic sport that is better and the Middlesbrough Men form a new kind of sporting republic)

If it's selected for international broadcast, it's not available on iFollow abroad.

Every match is available bar those, at least for those based abroad or using a VPN.

Depends what overseas markets its been sold to I think. You can always find a location where it is available though, so if you get a season pass no reason you can't watch all the games as far as I know.

Correct, you just sometimes have to take a trip to Uganda or Korea to find a "dark market" (one where the game is not being shown)

if that country does not have partnership rights with EFL (dark markets) then it is available on Boro Live

Thanks for the help

Good question re the number of games you can see in a season, which is all (bar Cup games which are not broadcast) if you use a VPN.

Without a VPN (I can’t use one) it depends on how well we’re doing. Ironically the more successful we are the less you’ll see.

I’ve been a season subscriber since the beginning, and I’ve always felt that I’ve missed about 50% of games either because it’s on Sky or being broadcast in Europe. On more than one occasion this has made me question whether it is better to buy on a match-by-match basis, but I’ve never gotten round to do a count and the convenience of the season pass has won.

This season I’m counting the games available to watch, and so far of the 18 league games, 14 have been broadcast - the rest I’ve watched on dodgy streams. This is higher than usual I think because of our poor start. No doubt if we keep challenging for a play-off spot Sky will be showing us more often.

PS There is usually an early-bird price for the season pass, this year it was £140.

bingo these are the lines I was thinking along. I’m late to the party so probably do it week by week but I have a VPN

I know a lad who says he accesses them all somehow ‘for free’ so that’s my next line of enquiry

Cambodia always works for me. It's a homage to Kim Wilde too

You need a dodgy stick for that, know a few who do. I feel obliged to give some money to the club, so that's why I use Borolive.

I thought it was Jello Biafra who holidayed there?

It won't be quite 'free'. But will seem very cheap.
