That will be your internet connection then cos mine worked perfectly throughout the game after the first 10 minutes or so.

I was able to got on nearly 10 minutes into the game. I tried laptop to tv via HDMI but it was virtually unwatchable. Watching on laptop was fine though. I was 2-3 minutes behind - is that usual?
I measured the time gap against BET365 and their live match graphics (up to the second, even ahead of SKY by around 8 seconds) and iFollow was around 50 seconds or so behind BET365.
Almost "live".

Following the experiences of supporters accessing the iFollow service at the weekend’s game with Luton Town, the club have sought assurances from EFL Digital about the service.

Some of our fans had no problems and I know Blackburn fans who had problems getting on as well so it would just depend on where they got their IPTV links from.
This Saturday there are only 4 3pm kick offs 1 of which is on Sky. I did think they would stagger the kick off times more to perhaps help with fans from multiple clubs trying to log on at the same time.
Huddersfield fans only got on 20 mins into game according to local paper
I would assume it was more an issue with so many people logging on at once the server couldn't handle it and crashed, rather than an issue with the streams itself which as you said was fully available on other services.
I am please North End have taken this up with the league because a server overload really is inexcusable when they had 3 months to prepare for it.
The forum had the highest traffic rate for a fair while on Saturday which was predictable, something I was prepared and paid for. Sadly the EFL didn't have the same plan.
Sky have pretty much dictated all the kick off times.
I watched the whole match on IPTV. I wish I hadn’t, but it ran from start to finish. Unlike North End. !!
I am presuming that iFollow is an Apple based product, yeah?

This is from the initial press release from the EFL about it launching...
US-based company NeuLion, a market leader in online video delivery, whose clients include the NFL, NBA and the Premier League, have developed the integrated streaming service alongside UK company Realise who have built the club websites.
SKY @Tino.
As much as my 24" HD PC Monitor provided a very clear picture v Luton, from the 13th minute onwards, I am going to opt for the leather sofa, SKY and my 50" HD Smart TV for the next 2 games.

Given it seems it is impossible to mirror it from IPad to your TV then I suspect not.
If not affiliated to Apple, how do they get to use "i" before the product?

They use that but don’t have exclusive rights to it. When they brought out the Apple Watch they wanted to call it iWatch. Someone else already had the rights to that name so Apple couldn’t use it.
