There is no bespoke app just access through a web browser so if your TV has a HTML 5 capable web browser then it should work.

Yep. This.

Or you can 'cast' it via wifi, or bluetooth from your device to your tele, but the quality wouldn't be as good as watching it directly on your device or if you use a HDMI lead that you can get from amazon for a couple of quid

The cast option is stopping for EFL games in accordance with the FAQ. Peeps at the EFL don't like it for some reason. Probs a way of preventing simple commercial viewing etc.

I don't know how they'll prevent whole screen casting from the device but I know Ifollow did through their app.

I was able to cast from my laptop to my TV when watching iFollow, so presume it will be the same on Wanderers TV

On PC perhaps but the App on android or ios certainly didn't allow it.

I don't know if it will work as I say it'll be interesting if they do. Not that it's an issue as a hdmi cable solves the issue with PC.
