Re: Football encroaching everywhere!!

But it does impact our enjoyment if we like sports in general but can not stand football!!! 

 

The amount we pay for Sky each month as opposed to DAZN, Amazon, Netflix etc is becoming very hard to justify.

So, presumably you're currently enjoying any one of the numerous cricket options available On Demand?

The histories of Sky and the PL are inextricably linked: it's very likely that neither would now exist without the other.

 

That's only going to change if a global streaming platform with deeper pockets decides to bid more than Sky could possibly match.

Re: Football encroaching everywhere!!

I pay to watch F1 content, not darts or football. Premier League Wolves vs Notts Forest on F1 tonight - not acceptable, especially given where we are in the F1 championship and recent developments 😡

Will be leaving Sky in January though because F1 channel is showing darts and football - not what I pay them for, so I'm off. 

@BeeBee2025 

So just as the F1 coverage restarts ahead of the next season (on 6 January).

What would you have liked to be shown on the F1 channel that can't be watched On Demand?

Re: Broadband drops every night from around midnight

Yes, because I'd rather put up with just highlights on free-to-air than stay with Sky any longer. It's been a catalogue of lies, mis-selling (admitted by Sky), appalling WiFi, lousy customer service, failing Sky Q product and general grief since I joined six years ago. I've had enough.

Re: Football encroaching everywhere!!

I'd rather have dead air than football or darts!  Given that my Sky Q box constantly drops wifi connection (not a WiFi issue, a problem with Sky Q reported by lots of customers) it's impossible to watch on demand content so that's not an option.
