Sky Sports delay

When watching Sky Sports via Sky Go on WIFI, why is there over a 1 min delay and not live, its like it is using the mobile feed?  I have posted about this on another thread but Sky not comming back to anyone on it.  The workaround it to record the program and watch via the recording.  But i would like to know why this is the case, can someone form Sky please explain this?  It did use to be live and not mobiel feed live

I have never know that to be the case, I presume it isn't live as the pictures have to be take from the live TV stream and then encoded to be sent to the mobile apps and I guess this takes time and is not instant.

When on Wifi and streaming from the Q box, it used to be about 10 sec behind, but months ago they updaed Sky Go and now its using the Mobile feed and so delay is over 1 min
