Are there any other International Town fans massively frustrated by the fact you can't access the Sunderland full match replay without having the score spoilt?
Being based in Sydney, the Sunderland game didn't KO until 2AM on Monday morning and with a standard 3pm KO being midnight here it's not always possible to watch the game live anyway. Therefore when I miss it, I always try and watch the full replay as if live.
However, on Monday the score was plastered all over the page where the replay sits including in the thumbnail and the copy of the full match replay.
Have any other international town fans brought this up with the club?

My understanding is that the Sunderland game was not shown on Town TV because it was on Sky Sports. In the United States the game was shown on ESPN+ which usually shows the games that are on Sky.

hadn't twigged that so not yet but can see being annoying- if I don't get up at 2.00 a.m to watch the game live.
More annoyed there is no live audio commentary for the Carabo cup games
and still think there should be an option of a season ticket
At the moment I got a subscription to Bein Sport to watch Sunderland live which was only a $1 for a weeks trial, normally $14 a month (which I am considering keeping as they show a lot of EFL games and European games inc Champions league.)

The broadcast part isn't an issue as If I wanted to, I could have watched it through BeIn sports in the middle of the night.
The frustration is that I wanted to watch the full match replay the following evening (as if it was live) yet I am greeted with unavoidable spoilers when trying to access the replay.

Your understanding is wrong. I watched the Sunderland game on TownTV... in Switzerland. You could only watch it in a non-Sky territory.
Trust the process. Trust Phil.

Yes, have the same issue, cue requests to the wife to load for me without divulging the score. I use one of my nine lives every time I ask her.

I managed to avoid spoilers for Sunday's game and watch the replay, but it involved having my partner set up the game for me, which isn't ideal. The old iFollow was a bit easier - the app had a "hide scores" function. Wonder if it's worth emailing the club about?

I definitely think so! They will only make changes if enough of us flag issues and having partners load it every week should not be the only way we can access replays without having it ruined.
It can't be that challenging to have a seperate 'category' within the TOWNTV interface that only hosts the full match replay that just has the club logo as the thumbnail with the participating teams in the copy.

Why didn't you watch the replay on Bein? No spoilers there ...

Yes I've just had a week's free trial with Bein Sports and am definitely keeping it. We got 5 Championship games this weekend and was able to watch them all on replay with no spoilers if on in the middle of the night and unable to watch live. Going to mean I can follow the league really well this Season.
A$14.99 a month is great value.

I actually don't have the Bein subscription and wasn't aware you could watch spoiler free replays, will make a note of that going forward! Either way, Bein is not a long term solution to games not televised.
The large majority will only be available on TownTV and so it would be great to find a resolution!

Slightly different problem here on the west coast of Australia - in that it sounds like there won't be a chance to watch the stream on a slight delay on TownTV. The 3pm Saturday kick offs will be 10pm for me (at least until the clocks change) and that's a bit early for me to pack my wife off to bed and settle down for the game.
Whilst it wasn't simple with iFollow, you could start the stream about an hour in to the game (covering the top left corner where the score was shown, rewind it back to kick off and then watch as if live. But, if you can't pause or rewind the stream on TownTV then I'm going to miss a lot of first halves this season.

Yes, even ifollow managed a 'hide scores' button on the app although on desktop it involved a tea towel over the top half of the screen where the score was and scrolling up from the bottom. At least though the replay link didn't show the score.
It's unreal isn't it. Two years in the making, all that money and not one person thought that just maybe some of us would want to watch the replay without knowing the score. Obviously the designers are not football fans.

Here on the West Coast that's what I do with a night match which is 4.45am kick off here with the clocks in the two countries as they are now. Too late to go back to bed so I'd do the same as what you do, get up at 6am, and watch on delay.
Why are you thinking that won't be an option with Town TV? I know they have basically clarified feck all about this and replays (We still don't know how soon after we can watch a replay) but you use the words '... sounds like ...'

Sorry - I didn’t get a chance to reply.
The reason I said sounds like we won’t be able to do that is that there were a few comments on here that said there wasn’t a ‘rewind’ or pause function on the TownTV app for the Innsbruck games. It was just a straight live feed.
Maybe it will be different for the season proper??

Update on this, I emailed the club and although I didn't get a reply, they followed my suggestion and added "full match replay" as a video category.
So, if you go directly to the video category screen ( https://www.itfc.co.uk/videos/categories), then click on Full Match Replay, you should be able to get to the relevant match without seeing a spoiler!
You can now "Likely-Lads it" to your heart's content.
