    Commentary is ******* awful, even by @SkySports standards, and the coverage in general seems amateurish. #nufc

    Really regretting switching from BT to @uksky broadband. Sky app says 800+Mbps to the hub yet I’m getting 10.8mbps in the living room and 0.87 in bedrooms! BT gave us reliable speeds throughout. Sky can’t send an engineer until 18th September!! @skyhelpteam any help??

    Hey @SkySports why is the commentator saying mikey moore scored his first goal for #Spurs ? He's scored in European competition for us. Poor again from you guys.

    @villareport @SkySports ridiculous to bring another player just to loan out becuse unai doesnt want to use.... crazyyyy. honestly we are a joke. PSR is an issues but Villa does some retarded business every window

    £24 with sky stream. Loyalty never mattered did it? Loyalty doesn’t matter @SkyHelpTeam I don’t expect a ground breaking deal but to go up from one offer of £37 to £41 then there is some serious issues in your teams. Oh well 👋🏻 #sky #scam #tvdeals

    @virginmedia @Bomber19631 I had Stream Box and Broadband set up yesterday. Neither working today, tried Cust Serv’s on hold over 45 mins and still no answer! These people are as garbage as their services, spend your money elsewhere. I’m going back to @SkyUK 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

    After 30 years with @bt_uk I have switched to @SkyUK for my broadband phone and TV package . A £40 per month rise was the reason and an almost identical service for 50% less . Wonder how much I have lost by not switching sooner ?

    @joshuap_avfc @villareport @SkySports Hopefully it’s with a purchase option or obligation otherwise is a problem again

  • BLD93
    Barry Davies (@BLD93) reported

    @Sacha_Lord One of the biggest problems is the ridiculous amount of money @SkySports and @TNTSportsBR charge. Pubs in my area are being charged in excess of £900 per month for both channels. That needs to be capped for a start off.

    @DanLang12 @SkySports All the commentators have been so bad recently, ignore Newcastle and just talk about whoever we are playing.

    @SkySports absolute **** stream for the Tottenham game tonite, it’s 1990s quality. Bullshit backwater stream on + not even on the main uhd ffs

    @steevi1da @SkySports I thought it was just my stream. Embarrassing that we pay for Sky Sports and this is the service. Genuinely, a dodgy stream would have been better.

    @StanCollymore Totally agree Stan, all these social media wannabes on Talksport, Skysports etc. I’ve had enough of it. I switch the TV/radio off now when these ***** come on. Mind you some of the ex footballers are trash too. Jamie O’Hara, Bent, etc absolute garbage

    @SkySports Are the commentators in the ground. ? Sound is awful and crowd noise turned down. Sounds so false. We pay so much for cheap presentation like this. #nufc

    @PureWrecsam @dale_sando @SkySports And she’s now deleted it, probably because it was a simple solution and she felt stupid.

    This SkySports coverage reminds me of how much I disliked Paul Heckingbottom. Remember when he was critical of the referee for stamping down on their time wasting at WHL when he was Sheffield United manager?
