This quote at the bottom of the website is annoying me

"Every fortnight I become the best of friends with 28,000 people "
Wolves Fan


He ain't going to the Molineux is he. For a more realistic view

"Every fortnight I become highly fucked off with 15,000 people"
Wolves fan

"We will also be providing a replacement for the Wolves Player HD product, called WolvesTV which will be similar to the EFL’s iFollow.

Details of this will be announced shortly when we have finalised the details of the product with the EFL to ensure it meets the League’s broadcasting rules. This will include live matchday commentary, behind the scenes videos and live broadcasting to overseas fans, for the fixtures where this is permitted by league rules"

So one would presume that overseas fans would watch our matches through our website only then.
I thought that you would buy an ifollow sub and watch any of the available matches through their site.

Can anyone say proxy?

 

[Freddeno]

Proxy

 

[b3h]

I'm thinking you won't be able to get round it. If a company doesn't mind you buying their product from abroad then you can VPN it. But won't this be setup so you can only actually subscribe if you aren't a UK resident, due to the laws etc? Their may be streams if it's popular

id say the club would want all your details before subscribing to prove its non UK.
I assume a few might sign up with an ex pat's details and use a proxy thereafter.

Seems odd that we can't at least watch away games,it could be a case of Alan watching more Wolves games next season than any of us

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

Would be against our crappy archaic broadcasting laws for one thing.

Shotgun THM's details hahahaha!

It's fairly trivial to set up a US-based virtual debit card and pay for geolocked services using it.

It's about time this changed, I don't think being on TV affects attendance in any really noticeable way

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

It doesn't (not if the product is any good), as I've said many times Germany has shown every single top flight game on TV for the last 15 years at least, highest average attendances in Europe by a mile, we had three home games shown in a row towards the end of 2014/15 when we were going for the playoffs, pretty much sold out all of them because we were actually worth watching.

 

[AndyWolves]

I'd argue I'd be more likely to go to a game if I could watch regularly. Right now I have no way of watching wolves bar highlights so don't feel very "engaged"

 

[Tom Hark]

Yes, of course. Virtually everything worth seeing at Glastonbury will be televised somewhere, but it doesn't affect ticket sales because being there and watching on TV are two very different experiences. I imagine the thinking by Fosun is primarily to grow their Chinese fan base. I wouldn't be at all surprised to see streams, which will just take money away from the club that I for one would happily pay for a live broadcast.

EDIT: Love the new site, too.

 

[YoungWolf]

Yeah, the laws here are so shit. Instead, we just end up streaming it for free basically when they could make more money out of it. and the whole 'traditional' 3pm stuff emanates from factory owners taking advantage of workers in the industrial revolution anyway..

I'm looking forward to the prospect of being able to watch games back anyway. It's not a luxury I' ve ever had with Wolves (probably a good thing)

 

[Afom]

Much better website than before. Wolves tv sounds great for us living outside uk.

Can you elaborate?
