Wondering how this will affect those of us across the pond.

 

I've been using iFollow for years and can see every single match I want. I don't have access to Sky.

Sheffield Wednesday manager Danny Rohl has signed a new "long-term" contract.

The 35-year-old German took over at Hillsborough in October with the club bottom of the Championship after their worst start to a league season under Xisco Munoz.

Rohl oversaw a tremendous turnaround in form as they finished three points clear of the relegation zone thanks to four wins in their final six games.

“I am delighted to extend my contract with Sheffield Wednesday. This is a fantastic club that has taken me to heart and I feel exactly the same way," he told the club website., external

“I would like to thank the chairman for giving me this opportunity and now we are excited to look forward and can plan ahead together for the new season."

Rohl, who left his job as Germany assistant manager last September, became the youngest manager in the EFL when he took over in South Yorkshire.

Wayne Rooney is set to have talks with Championship side Plymouth Argyle about their vacant head coach role.

Rooney, 38, is keen to re-establish his reputation after a disastrous spell at Birmingham last season, when he lost nine games out of 15.

Argyle are looking for a new boss after the dismissal of Ian Foster towards the end of last season.

Director of football Neil Dewsnip and coach Kevin Nancekivell took over for the remainder of the campaign and guided Plymouth to safety, ironically at Birmingham’s expense.

Dewsnip knows Rooney from his time as a coach at Everton’s academy.
