Try this to do a complete removal of the app and the files and folders it uses:

 

Delete the Sky Go app.
Launch Finder, select Downloads then delete ‘SkyGoInstaller’.
Launch Finder again, select Go (at the top of the screen), then Computer.
Select Macintosh HD.
Go to Users > [yourusername] > Applications then delete the Sky Go app.
Then go to Library by Open Finder.
Click "Go" on the menu bar.
Press and hold the “option/alt” key.
Click the "Library" shortcut which appears.
Then navigate to the relevant folders (Application Support, Caches or Preference) and delete all SkyGo folders and files referencing Cisco player
Reboot your Mac and then download and install the Sky Go app again.

Tried the Sky App email help suggested.  No response to 5 emails, does it exist?  Exceptionally poor service from Sky.

Still nothing, is that Sky app site real?  Immediate acknowledgement each time I send an email but nothing further.  It includes a telephone number that doesn't connect!

 

RIDICULOUS SERVICE.

Yes it is real but spamming them multiple times probably isn't a good idea.

 

I have escalated your post to Sky who will be in touch with you regarding this via a blue/red chat bubble which will appear at the bottom of this page. It can take up to 24 hours to be contacted via this.


This link explains how this works:

When the blue bubble does appear you have 48 hours to respond or it will be automatically closed.

Thanks for doing that.  I sent 2 emails each of the last 4 days, that's not spamming. It poor customer care.
