I can and probably will switch the sound off. I regularly do when watching on Sky but would like to hear the players and get what little atmosphere there is.
Used to love it on Sky when you had the option for crowd noise only.
Well I tried to buy a 9 match voucher, got to the basket point, selected pay by cafc cash, chose postal delivery as could not proceed further without selecting delivery, got to confirm and saw that the £1.50 handling charge still outstanding. Clicked pay and it went to select payment card , Stopped at that point. this is not what the video showed.
No season ticket holder should have to fork out a penny extra to watch the home games via Valley Pass. Shameful if they do.
Your not... Unless you purchased a cheap season ticket (student / concession / u18 / lower north etc) then you'll also have the option of using your refund on away games
Of course there is nothing saying you have to "purchase" the away games that way if you dont want to
Don't understand this, why do I have to pay to watch the games when I have already paid for VP for the season?
I imagine what you've paid for already is the non video match content so match day commentary, interviews, archive games and behind the scenes stuff etc
That part of ValleyPass is different to the iFollow section despite both being under the one name which is what makes it confusing
The other reason the iFollow section is different to ValleyPass is because most games are held @ 3pm on a Saturday afternoon in an ordinary season, these games arent available for UK viewers (Unless you use a VPN)
Its only due to these exceptional circumstances that those rules have been relaxed
I guess from the clubs point of view they didn't want to make it to cheap so thought £27 was reasonable and assumed under 18s would be happy to watch with their parents.
Which is why this whole thing was planned wrong in the first place.
Anyone with a season ticket should have been given the home games for free end of story, if they had done it this way it would have been so simple.
Then people pay for the away games.
Non season ticket holders then still pay £10 a game
To be fair this seems to be a decent way of doing things, although probably would’ve been best to save any announcement until today’s so people weren’t understandably full of questions.
Sounds like a few season ticket refunds are still less than the £27 being asked, but in most cases I’d think they’d be linked to a full price S/T so as pointed out above as a group they’re better off anyway being able to use that money for next year’s S/T.
Will personally pick and choose - as suggested it’s almost an absolute certainty the Leeds game will be on Sky, and there could be another depending on how the season progresses.

Keep the £70 CAFC Cash to off-set the increase in Season Ticket price!

Seen a few parents already going mad on Twitter about it
To be fair there will be cases as I know I was one of them when I first got my season ticket in 98-99 (I was 15 when that season started)
Too many people are going mad on twitter over it yet dont appear to have read to actual article
