Only exception to this I believe is that BBC Wales have bought the rights to show 1 game involving a Welsh side if they’re still in the competition and not being shown elsewhere.Argyle-sy":20fs7av8 said:TinTin":20fs7av8 said:As iFollow seemingly are not interested - any ex-pats [in particular] got ANY bright ideas for a non-geek ?
Keep the Faith :scarf:
I have checked and thus far the game isn't being shown abroad. Surprised BBC SW haven't picked up on this and chosen to show it live.
Like others have said, ifollow only has the rights to matches in EFL competitions so can’t broadcast anything from the FA cup.
You may well be right with the BBC Wales thing then mate, as I have seen them covering matches which haven't been on either of the main channels. I know that the Northampton Town vs Notts County and Rochdale vs Boston United games are being shown on foreign channels which is why I am surprised that Rovers vs Argyle hasn't also been picked up for live coverage abroad,
