Steve Moulds, who represented the Foxes Trust at the meeting said, “Currently we are faced with the ridiculous situation where fans across the world can watch every Premier League game live, but fans who live in the UK and have attended matches for many years cannot”.

Ian Bason, Foxes Trust Chairman added “We must not overlook the mental strain that Covid 19 has had.  For 90 minutes fans can escape the pressures of their lives, releasing that pent up emotion watching football; the value to their mental health should not be underestimated. To deny fans the opportunity to attend games or even watch a live media broadcast, as they could during Project Restart, will have a knock-on effect on mental health.”

 

It's been mental strain watching us for that last number of games - (just joking) I'm sure there are some serious issues relating to this,  I'm unlikely to attend this season unless there's a dramatic improvement in the infection rates or a well proven vaccine arrives, both seem unlikely.

get yourself a VPN for the United states, and for about £45 you can watch every single premier league game accross the whole season. plus playbacks and highlights.. it used to be called NBC gold but i think they are incorporating it into their regular online content called ‘peacock’

I have this for work. So could I sign up for an online pass or something?  Don’t you need a US address?

I tried that and it still wouldn't let me.

did you try and use a free Vpn  instead of paying for one? :D

Yes and when that didn't work tried a paid for one.

 

Kept telling me it was available in my country so I assumed they had a away of seeing that i wasn't actually in the USA.

Ridiculous comments.

 

I don't even want to see the final score based on how we did after the restart :D

I agree, I remember watching the Brighton game and it genuinely gave me a headache.

it's just gonna see an influx of people watching illegal streams and they won't be able to stop it

 

surely got to see sense given the unique circumstances

If it's a choice of paying £5 or £10 to watch the game or watch it on my IPTV for $50 a year I'll stick to the IPTV anyway.I think most people would. In reality it's not going to change much either way.

If we play anything like we are today vs Wednesday I'd rather not, thanks.

The friendlies don't really have a bearing on my opinion, I always say friendlies are boring and you can't take much from them but along with the 2nd half of last season, I kind of hope they don't show all our games, because if they're available I know i'll watch (As I have just done even though i've just said what I think about friendlies :yawn:), i'd rather they not be readily available.
