  @80_zach @IanWright0 @SkySports What’s your problem mate. You wouldn’t have been in favour had this pandemic happened any of the previous 30 years. If you don’t like my responses why comment to me in the first place.

  @SkyHelpTeam That it would still be affected by the trees. Currently the line of sight in its current location hits the very centre / bulk of the tree. The location I suggested I think at worst would clip some lower branches. I think if mounted low enough it would not hit the tree at all.

  Rich Hegarty (@Hegster1973) reported 34 minutes ago from Consett, England

  @ADMusgrove @SkySports and @tntsports it's time to stop having co- commentators who played/support one of the clubs playing. The bias is beyond a joke now. I'm sure most of the TV fans will agree

• 
  Gary Philipson (@GaryAPhilipson) reported 41 minutes ago from Sedgefield, England

  @SkyHelpTeam is there an issue with broadband in the TS21 area?

• 
  Will (@wjc_14) reported 41 minutes ago from Durham, England

  It’s a regular thing now that @SkyHelpTeam rip me off but I guarantee they’ll never get another penny off me. I’ve been paying full price for @SkySports whilst they’ve been giving it away for free. I don’t think so.

  @SkyHelpTeam An approximate 45 minute wait is not acceptable to cancel a part of my package when the customer should be able to cancel with one click online. Am guessing it’s because your call handler has a script to follow to try to persuade us not to drop sports pack (2/2)

  @SkyHelpTeam Sky Q. I’ve had this issue since it was installed last year but it’s happening across more channels. I’ve tried all the trouble shooting methods but we have a communal apartment dish so I’m wondering if this is the reason

  Andrew Simpson (@AgingBull73) reported 54 minutes ago from Bearpark, England

  @talkSPORT Ok over 1000 fans surveyed, but where was survey taken and who did they support? Great unbiased survey. Source wasn't @SkySports was it?

  @90_JoshB Struggling to understand how people have missed your point or they're just playing dumb. People tune in to TNT/Amazon/SkySports etc for unbiased commentary for the UCL, completely different to an international match commentary by a network where the B (in BBC) stands for British

  @SkySports That’ll go down well in Catalonia.

  Apple’s @F1 feed is atrocious. I swear it’s made me lose interest in F1 this season. The on-screen talent is lacking. Just not polished and they look like they are reject journos from Paris fashion week. @SkySports feed is ace. Too bad you can’t do replays in the US #Monaco

• 
  Bren Connolly 🇺🇦 (@BlueBren) reported 12 minutes ago

  @PED7 Football is dull now, full stop. Teams are obsessed with not making a mistake and take so few risks, there’s no excitement. And finals are the worst of the lot. I’ve got SkySports and TNT, but if it wasn’t for my love of the Blues I probably wouldn’t watch the game at all.

  VAR RECCURING ERRORS: “WHO IS AT FAULT? THE TECHNOLOGY OR PGMOL OFFICIALS?”. I think to unpack this debacle that we have come to normalized as natural occurrence similar to daily human mistakes, errors by PGMOL officials as seen in almost all game week in the EPL, VAR is simply defined as “Video Assisted Referee”. To break this further, it is officiating a football match using technology i.e video replays, images etc to spot obvious and clear errors committed by the on-field human officials usually 4 personnel or actions sanctioned by the rules as fouls that were completely missed by the on-field officials. For VAR to be effective and not seen as in direct conflict or undermining the authorities of the on-field referees, certain parameters of the game state were defined as areas VAR can intervene like DOGSCO, dangerous play, incidents in the penalty box, violent conducts by players and these activities were categorized into 4 major areas i.e goals (and the attacking phase leading to them), penalties (awarded or missed), direct red cards, and mistaken identity. Now that we have defined VAR and clarified the intended use of VAR, how is it possible that a technology deployed to spot clear and obvious errors made by on-field officials somehow end up with recurring errors that lead to controversies, major talking points post-match every week and in most cases deciding the outcome of football matches? I am Arsenal fan so let’s use Arsenal specific VAR incidents as an example. 3 seasons ago at Newcastle, 3 separate incidents and VAR were unable to spot any. One of the incidents was if the ball had crossed the line. Subjective as at that time because VAR had no camera at the corner flag and no spider camera to confirm if the entire ball had crossed the line. Fast track to this season and at Nottingham Forest, a defender clearly used his hand to control the ball from going into corner kick. There was a camera at the corner, and we all saw that deliberate handball. Juxtaposing both incidents, VAR error at Newcastle had been effectively addressed with a camera at the corner at Nottingham Forest but yet outcome was the same. Arsenal this season at Brighton, Arsenal player deliberately holding a Brighton player in the box during an attacking play missed by the referee but no VAR intervention. At Mancity, an Arsenal player engaging in a violent act but was issued a yellow card instead of a red card. Both actions had no VAR error but officials’ wrong interpretation of the Rules and wrong decision. Typically, most OEMs and other manufacturers usually issue a warning and a recall of their products once that notice significant factory defect or recurring manufacturing errors to their products and such products are withdrawn within weeks, months or sometimes within a year. Before doing this, the OEM go through a process of investigation to determine the root cause, issue a notice to their customers and users and proceed to a remedy phase where repairs and replacements are undertaken. The question now is if VAR (technology) is the problem, who are the OEM of EPL VAR and why have no one asked the OEM to undertake this process of stopping this recurring errors? How come none of the media platforms in the UK ever done any kind of hit piece, editorial or investigative journalism on the recurring errors of the technology? Rather, we have an independent panel that review VAR errors, we have a Skysports PGMOL show where the Head of PGMOL do a review of the VAR errors weekly as well as other controversial officiating decisions, we have another Skysports show where ex-referee do a review of VAR good or bad calls, Talksports have similar radio shows, Ex-Referees have podcasts and Youtube Channels talking about VAR errors and we have media platforms doing annual reports like the one done by BBC, The Athletic and now ESPN doing VAR errors and impact on clubs, title races and relegation battles.
