How much Bolton Wanderers made from iFollow last season & 3pm Saturday domestic blackout stance

Bolton Wanderers made £500,000 from the iFollow streaming service last season and the League One side is keen to continue using the platform for all games apart from 3pm Saturday kick-offs and maintain the domestic blackout for those fixtures.

Wanderers supporters and those of other clubs up and down the Championship, League One and League Two became very much accustomed to watching matches via the service in the 2020/21 campaign. It was down to the action taking place largely behind closed doors owing to the Covid-19 pandemic.

Ian Evatt's side were among the most watched sides in League Two last season via the platform as they achieved automatic promotion to League One. In the 2021/22 season, there were no domestic broadcasting or live streams of 3pm matches on Saturdays in the EFL as the position moved back to something resembling pre-pandemic rules.
