- In a fascinating interview with Wrexham Director of Football Shaun Harvey, the executive discusses the crossroads the EFL finds itself in ahead of a new international rights deal. iFollow is ending, so what does the future of streaming EFL games look like for international viewers? Harvey shares his insight regarding the available options and the lessons learned from launching iFollow.
We also discuss how soccer fans in the United States can watch every Wrexham game, why so few Wrexham league games are shown on ESPN+, what changed to normalize streaming of games in the United Kingdom, where Wrexham stands in popularity of EFL clubs worldwide, why iFollow was started in the first place, and much more.

Great discussion, thanks......let's hope the EFL get this right.....Shaun Harvey is a great guest.....mine of knowledge! 👍😊
I love listening to Shaun Harvey!
Very interesting discussion, well done to both gentlemen. I do hope that the commitment to games being available anywhere in the world is carried through in the new deal.
Thank you Diana!
Thank you for having Mr. Harvey share his insight into the EFL streaming rights. As a iFollow sub, I am sincerely hoping for an improved streaming experience going forward. Can we expect another interview/discussion once the new deal is announced?
We'll certainly have an article on it on our website at www.worldsoccertalk.com as well as discussing it in detail on the podcast
The issue I have with iFollow is that there is no league package or any type of add on. I have iFollow for Wrexham but I have no easy way to follow the games of the Top 4. I want to watch Stockport vs. Mansfield, Mansfield vs. Barrow, Barrow vs. Notts County as the games are all very relevant to whether my team can Win League, Win Auto Promotion or other.
@@JR-nv4td each to there own.. my simple point is there is no easy way to follow more than one club .. or top of table matches or relegation battles.
You actually have no way to watch matches from another team without creating a second iFollow account. This is ridiculously poor software. Plus it’s 10£ one match 25£ one month. Only season pass is reasonably priced.
@@JR-nv4td I _think_ he/she means the ability to watch the teams involved in the promotion battle when playing against each other, and being able to quickly switch to see how the other game(s) is progressing or when/if a goal notification for that 'other' game comes through. Also the facility to watch the other games if Wrexham aren't actually playing that day for whatever reason. In other words a full-on iFollow package for that particular League - which is one of the topics to be discussed going by what Shaun was saying...
I like I follow but I wish that if Wrexham wasn't playing that I would be able to watch other matches. There's been a time or two when we aren't playing and I could watch Knox county or one of the other teams but I can't on I follow. That kind of sucks.
