Part of my frustration with this season isn't the fault of the lads. I dropped Fulham TV several years back, partially because it was poorly operated and Peacock was showing all the Prem matches live and also on replay. I was able to catch every Fulham match and many of the other games of interest. Peacock now shows only a few matches due to "broadcast rights". Many of our matches I ended up watching on replay, often a day or two after the live event and at least a third of them I wasn't able to get at all.
So, the question is, has Fulham TV improved to the point where it is a practical outlet to be able to view the matches in real time? Your impute would be welcome. COYW
Most of the time, if you're patient and ok with doing it, you can find an uninterrupted livestream playing the match for free at a decent quality, especially as we're in the PL. If the UK isn't screening it, then the U.S, Saudi, Australian or South African channels are and people just put those streams on websites.
In a more forward answer to your question though, if the above doesn't appeal, I haven't tried Fulham TV and haven't heard anything good about it, but that could just be me. I kinda wrote it off when it became a thing.

The simple answer to your question is a firm No.
FFCTv can show replays (both full and highlights) following the match itself (I cannot recall the period between that) under an agreement with the EPL, though the replay will contain Jim & Jamie's commentary (which is preferably imo) and not the original broadcasters as that belongs to the broadcaster, not EPL I believe.
FFCTv has no rights to stream the matches live, they are the property of the English Premier League (EPL) and they sell the packages off for billions of dollars to broadcasters around the world, including NBC & Fox in the US (HERE (https://www.friendsoffulham.com/forum/index.php?topic=99861.msg1633129#msg1633129) is a link to that discussion on this board).
For the US, the table contained via the link above explains who is able to legally stream the matches, depending on the day of the week and time of day the matches are played.
In a nutshell, to get full coverage of every EPL match in the US, you will need subscription to:
- NBC (Local channel, USA & Peacock)
- Fox FS1
- Amazon Prime
For FA Cup matches, it's ESPN, League Cup it's Paramount + (which also includes Europa, Champions League, EFL, Div1/2)
Netflix are joining in the bidding war, though I believe the current packages are through 2028/29
