Nice. More money. More national coverage
Another 3-2 win hopefully
Just a shame sky clearly hate us despite putting us on more than any other team and i tell you what I bet the ref will be working agaisnt us!!!
We expect all the media to be impartial and unbiased, just like the BBC.I think the assumption that Sky hate us is seen very much through "Sky Blue eyes".
Yes, the coverage last friday was rather heavily weighted towards Reading... but the fact is they are/were pissing the league, probably expected to destroy us, and have been a much higher-profile team than us in recent history. What do we expect?
Can guarantee it will be that prick of a woman who knows nothing about football and is just there to read questions.
Yep, would be very annoying to keep being moved to Friday night if we were allowed in but as things are the extra money is a huge bonus.what's that now - £400k TV money this season already, very handy in the current climate.

Thought the commentary was fine on the main channel, the midweek red button games not so much but its always a bit shit when its a single commentator with no-one to bounce off.I said it in another thread, but do people seriously care that much about presenters and commentary? I get that more of us are watching on TV nowadays, but does it really ruin the game for you that much? Don't think I've ever sat through an entire HT/postmatch panel but sounds like it's a massive deal for some people.

However the presenter is appalling, to the point its hard to see how she's in a job. You could put any Sky Sports presenter in her place and the coverage would improve. God knows how she's in the job. But as you say, just switch on for kick off and go and stick the kettle on at half time and you miss all that.

I watch most of my foreign football (in fact most of my football) via Bet365, which has absolutely no commentary the vast majority of the time. Far better experience.
I said it recently in another thread... this is too dangerous for the likes of Sky, who need to keep employing hysterical pundits and presenters to remind us that we're watching "the best league in the world"
Can't beat a good diversity quota. Suck it up bigot!
I don't get all the misogyny towards the presenter, she is no worse than any of her male counterparts in what she knows about Cov. Blokes being worried about women pundits
Sky can't get enough of us. 'The Entertainers' are back in town. Not literally, unfortunately.

Another 3-2 against Blues and Sky might as well move in.I've seen posts from other fans who enjoyed our game v Reading, we've been on 3 times and there have been 14 goals.
Sort of related, but I was convinced at some point there was a conspiracy to get us relegated from the Premier League and was convinced that referees were plotting against us - might have been after an Arsenal game at HR where we battered them and they scored (i think from a dodgy pen, and we played with 10 for a period after Paul Williams was sent off for breathing on Dennis Bergkamp) Think it ended 2-2People used to say the BBC hates us too.
Sky do not 'hate us' and it's ridiculous to suggest so.

I usually take my seat to a game about a minute before kick off... I know do the same for games on TV!Can guarantee it will be that prick of a woman who knows nothing about football and is just there to read questions.

On what possible grounds can you make the leap to calling that “misogyny”?I don't get all the misogyny towards the presenter, she is no worse than any of her male counterparts in what she knows about Cov. Blokes being worried about women pundits
Why didn't he just say "the presenter" then?On what possible grounds can you make the leap to calling that “misogyny”?
Nothing to do with her being a woman, it’s to do with her being dog shit at her job. If it was a bloke most would (and do) say the same thing.
Which one is that?Can guarantee it will be that prick of a woman who knows nothing about football and is just there to read questions.
