NL Streaming Platform Launched

[Whispering Bob]

I'm sure somebody mentioned a few weeks back that we may be able to watch Southend games via some kind of app/vehicle in the New Year?

Can anyone please verify (might make a nice Xmas gift for a house-bound parent).

Good news for exiles, and a few extra quid.

 

[Shrimper]

Will be good news. Looking forward to that

 

[The Big Dady]

Will be great for away games

Thanks, will look into this.

I'm curious what the arrangement will be for those who already subscribe to Blues Player.

Imagine well find out sometime soon ( ie before the "soft launch¨ on Dec 10th).

National League Announces Streaming Platform Launch - The Vanarama National League

The National League Board is pleased to be in a position to provide a streaming update following a Board meeting on Wednesday 30 November.

I would imagine it will be similar to the EFL in that it will be 3pms available abroad and maybe away 7.45pm games being available, with the home side banking the cash.

Brilliant news!

NATIONAL League TV will kick-off this coming Saturday with the soft launch of a centralised streaming platform.
Fans will be able to buy half-price access for the first two weeks while the process and system is stress tested before a full launch from Boxing Day where a domestic match day pass will cost £9.50.
The groundbreaking platform will allow supporters to take their pick of National League games – including being able to switch between matches – as opposed to buying a pass for an individual match.

Thanks for this.
Sounding good especially as I am away from next year for several weeks so means I can keep watching

Interesting.

There seem to be some grumbles that big clubs will benefit the most out of this, if they get 60% of the money from their supporters even when they are playing away, rather than the home team making money from ticket sales. Wrexham fans, to be fair, quick to point out this isn't the system they asked for, and that their owners have already pledged to donate 100% of their profits to the National League to be redistributed.

It remains to be seen if this replaces away fans or provides additional revenue stream.

From my point of view it will increase revenue stream. I only attend about 10 games a year usually all at home, I doubt that will change. But I reckon I will probably stream 90% of the games I don't attend - a clear increase in spend for me.

To be honest, on a personal note, I'd only use this for Tuesday away games that I can't get to. We only have two of those after January the 1st, so won't be massively used. One of those games is Maidenhead away. We packed that out on a Tuesday last season, be interesting to see if it's the same this season with this service in place.

Same here Matt, i go when im back in southend, but otherwise i just have cash sitting here every weekend to pay that they dont get now.

Im sure the away hardcore will still go as they are awesome. But most fans will pay for away games i reckon.

For someone who doesn't get back to England very often, I'm more interested in a Season pass. I can't imagine that the National League would charge any more than ifollow, which, if I understand correctly, is £140.

 

[palexander]

Seeing a LOT of negativity on Twitter, but personally speaking as someone that barely gets to a handful of games a season, I'll be all over this now and that will be extra money into they Blues they wouldnt have got.

Would assume a lot of people in same boat too.
