SWINDON Town's League Two play-off semi-final fixtures against Port Vale will not be available to any domestic or most overseas supporters on iFollow, the English Football League has confirmed.
After Town booked their spot in League Two's top seven with their weekend win away at Walsall, attention quickly turned to how fans would be able to watch the pair of crunch ties.
Swindon announced ticket details for the play-off semi-final first leg on Monday while Sky Sports have confirmed which channels will show every play-off match - Sky Sports Main Event and Sky Sports Football.
As part of the EFL's broadcast agreement, games that are shown on Sky Sports prevent the majority of worldwide countries from streaming games on iFollow.
The only countries which can show Town's play-off games on iFollow are: Albania, Bangladesh, Bhutan, Cambodia, Faroe Islands, Greenland, Hungary, India, Italy, Japan, Laos, Liechtenstein, Luxembourg, Malaysia, Maldives, Malta, Mongolia, Myanmar, North Korea, Nepal, Pakistan, Romania, Singapore, San Marino, South Korea, Sri Lanka, Taiwan, Timor-Leste, Ukraine, Vatican City and Vietnam.
At the start of the 2021-22 season, the EFL returned to the position it held prior to the Covid pandemic when the live broadcast or streaming of any match in the UK (including the Isle of Man, Channel Islands, and the Republic of Ireland) was banned between 2:45pm and 5:15pm on Saturday afternoons.
Town fans had been able to stream midweek matches on the EFL's service this season, however.
Supporters who are not able to make it to a game or watch on Sky Sports can stay up to date by following Adver Sport's in-depth coverage of every key moment.
