Brentford 2 up at Fulham, not a good result for our play off push

Sorry can not help with android app (I tried it once and it was awful, and the live stream constantly stopped, went down etc) But if you have access to a laptop (windows based) , sign out of the android app on your device. using the chrome browser* go to www.rovers.co.uk , on the top menu go to Matches, then First team fixtures. A new page will show, showing up coming matches. click on live match centre link on the Bristol game. A new page will appear where you can choose Video or Audio link (these usually appear half and hour before kick off) Once you click the video link it will ask for your login / password , once entered the video player will appear. * Tried other browsers and chrome seems the most reliable with ifollow, whatever the current operating system on macbook is, also works well according to my PNE supporting Brother in law. .

That as always been the case with ifollow since its start for overseas subscribers, your subscription (video content) covers all standard league games not including the play offs. all to do with play off games in every division being broadcast on TV . For part of the first season of ifollow there was no Football League tv broadcast deal in Australia, so contacted ifollow and they said if there is no TV station showing the play off games in x country, match passes will be made available per game for that country. Expect that play off games on a per match basis this season will have to be offered to season ticket holders for a fee. Edit: Wrong on my expectations of the above, just looked at the Exeter website who played in a first leg play off this week.Looks like the broadcasters put their foot down despite the unusual circumstances. https://www.exetercityfc.co.uk/news/2020/june/watch-play-offs/

At one stage you could have choice of home commentary, away commentary and no commentary (just crowd noise) , for a long while whatever you chose , it was just real crowd noise about 30 seconds behind the game. This season it just defaults to your teams commentary (with background crowd noise) , still about 10 seconds behind the visuals and sometimes they forget to plug their mics in for the commentary Despite all ifollows faults it does seem to be improving season after season , looking forward to seeing how the servers hold up to the increase in streamers, as the biggest viewership for one game prior was 4500 viewers (Luton v Portsmouth , 2019)

Here is the link and video , goals from the game approx 4 minutes in

From the recent Richie Sharpe tweet and the Joe H post on here about the Graham hat-trick, looks like the friendly was 3-2 to the team in the away kit , Rovers will be releasing footage of the goals later

Or a cunning plan from ToMo in case anybody from Bristol saw the footage,and thinks we will be playing our strikers up front centre .:)

First thought was it might be a case of preparing for a worse case scenario, one or two players come down with the virus once games commence, so will need all players to have a reasonable level of fitness if called on. Giving a run out to those who are a bit behind after the fitness checks ?

Is that the 4 part one , Murder in the outback? There does seem something very odd about that murder and the resulting investigation

There is a new documentary released last week, called Who Killed Jeffery Epstein?. Very similar to the netflix one, interview a lot of the same people , but it goes into a bit more detail and also looks into who could have wanted him "suicided" https://www.independent.co.uk/arts-entertainment/tv/news/jeffrey-epstein-who-killed-true-crime-documentary-suicide-conspiracy-tv-a9551201.html

Have you watched Pine Gap? Not as intense as Secret city , and a bit slow in places but worth a watch, a political thriller (6 episodes) For one reason or another missed out originally on a lot of the American shows until they appeared on netflix. 24 is one on the list to watch but currently working my way through Homeland and very much enjoying it. Good writing keeping the interest with different scenarios in each series and cliff hangers on each episode wanting you to watch just one more before bedtime .

Life on Mars was a brilliant series, We have had quite a bit of British/Irish crime/drama series added to our two streaming services in Aus over the last few months and obviously with lots of downtime we have been catching up. One in particular starring John Simm was White Dragon was very good (believe it was called Strangers, in the UK). Others that were decent The Dublin Murders (slow starting but worth sticking with) Prey (series 1 starring John Simm and series 2 Phillip Glenister) The Tunnel series 2 and 3 So/So White Lines (Netflix) - Produced by Alex PIna (Money Heist) Decent cast and a promising story line (mysterious death, drugs, Ibiza) but way too long could have easily been 6 episodes instead of 10 and loads of unnecessary sex scenes, (never thought i would ever say that, must be getting old :)) A couple of Australian shows that you may find on UK/USA netflix (or on the high seas) that are worth a watch Mr Inbetween (2 series) - comedy drama about a underworld hit man/nightclub bouncer Utopia - (4 series) cross between the office and yes minister about a government infra structure department. Lamb of God (4 episodes (dark crime drama, reminded me of The Wickerman (film) ) Secret City (2 Series) - Political espionage

If it is going down that route, at least make it entertaining, the electronic device also transmits a electric shock to the player as well as alerting the ref . The more out of position a player is when not performing social distancing the higher the voltage.

Of course, but the PL have not flashed the fiver yet

The FA will do what they usually do. The Premier League will flash a fiver and the FA will get out the lube and bend over.

Agree, it is going to be interesting to see what happens with the Rugby League on the East Coast once it gets up and running. I would hope the WA Gov if they are seriously considering the PL thing , will be monitoring it , as it could possibly be the blueprint but on a much larger scale with 20 teams and officials from outside the border instead of one It does seem at the moment that stringent checks are being carried out, at least one player from the NZ team was stopped from travelling because he had a cough. Obviously no one can account for human behviour, particular for those involved in sporting codes with a reputation for out of office activities.

That is one of the reasons why I'm against it. As for the Australian federal government they don't give a shit (see cruise ships) they just want the economy back on track and are busy bribing people to download their 3 million dollar placebo ,but as for the Western Australia State government, if they give the go ahead I would be hopeful considering their actions so far ,that they would have measures in place for the above scenario not to happen. It is the measures by the State Governments that have helped drop the curve NOT the Federal Government who have been brought to the table kicking and screaming

bit more info on the idea https://www.foxsports.com.au/football/premier-league/australia-is-ideal-premier-league-clubs-in-talks-to-finish-season-in-perth/news-story/8a02c3defcf68f621f65cb3663a668b8 *Just to add to the above , the State Premier said in his press conference yesterday that he had not been approached by either the agent trying to organise it , sport west or the premier league. As silly an idea as it sounds , I'm against it by the way, some points in my view as to why it is being proposed and on paper could happen Currently the Weather (we are in late Autumn, Winter starts in June) is ideal for football. Occasionally a day in the top 20's c / lower 80's f) but the rest is moderate think early UK summer, winter nights it very rarely drops below 0) Perth is pretty isolated as it is, borders are locked down (External and Internal) and has a low population per sq kilometre in the Greater Perth area. We have low transmission rates (excluding those from cruise ships) https://ww2.health.wa.gov.au/Articles/A_E/Coronavirus/COVID19-statistics The WA covid response is being driven by the state premier and state government , not the knobheads at federal level. So it as been fairly successful and sensible There are more than enough bases available to use as training bases and currently empty facilities (, other sporting codes ,hotels) etc to accomodate squads and staff. At a push these could also be additional venues that could host games to shorten the time span. For instance https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Western_Australian_Athletics_Stadium Not ideal for spectator viewing of a footy match ( went to a FFA cup game there couple of years ago) but would work behind closed doors. The infrastructure is very good . For instance to get from the main City roughly the bottom of the Greater Perth (Mandura )area to the one at top (Joondalup) on a good day is an hour by coach on a bad day an hour twenty.(our speed limits are slightly lower here than in the UK, Motorway works out at 62 mph) Broadcast facilities are already in place and currently not being used . The return of the Rugby here would still leave enough available They would probably use the model that it is currently being used in the rugby League for the New Zealand team and the Au teams on the East Coast. Two week isolation upon arrival and daily checks https://www.abc.net.au/news/2020-05-02/coronavirus-new-zealand-warriors-nrl-australia-travel-permission/12208602

Just woke up to this news, very sad. Very talented keyboard player which along with JJ's Bass gave The Stranglers that unique sound that set them apart in the early punk scene and over the following years.

It was in one of the first articles about Paul Senior . Wonder what he's up to these days, covid-19 healing crystals my best guess .

So blew a two goal lead to Forest Green ended up 2-2 , Replay going on now 66 minutes gone 2-0 down - Dack Out ! Edit now 3 down Edit 2: now 4-0 Edit 3"Now Dack sent off !

Just tell Rovers that you will charge anybody who logs in only two hours before streaming time three quid

If it is still on, we should be confident going into it on a 21 day unbeaten run

No we want a realistic we are were we are event We can all buy a airfix plane kit, stick the front bits on the wings, the middle bits on the left and right tail section etc and throw the main pilot (captain) under the table after we have just started and for the pre and post match interview i.e tale of woe with a North east accent , we can watch an old episode of when the boat comes in
