  @SkyUK what a joke your company is. Three hours on the phone between two of us today. Was going to upgrade but your staff couldn’t be bothered to call back as they agreed to do. Can’t wait to leave now, you deserve your appalling customer service reputation!

  @SkyHelpTeam Thanks but your online advice doesn’t help with the issue of a faulty battery where the phone randomly turning itself off when it’s on 100% battery & not switching on again until it’s connected to power

  @ThePollitt @SkyUK Having a similar issue. Broadband keeps dropping out for 30s or so, but 5 or 6 times a day! they keep sending me info on how to fix my WiFi! And of course by the time they test my connection it’s all good again. Expect better for £30 a month.

  Understand how busy @SkyHelpTeam are but the phone service is about as bad as I can ever remember....very quick to sign you up but virtually impossible to resolve issues over the phone.

  So hard to watch @SkySports soccer Saturday. Four truly awful pundits. All seems to think by repeating themselves makes them sound clever. @JeffStelling must be gutted.

  Hello again @SkyHelpTeam @SkyUK once again I’ve completely been taken off line. Third time in about 10 months. This is appalling. As soon as I speak to someone I’m cancelling and moving on. Terrible company.

  @SkyHelpTeam Hi. Do you have a prob with phone support as I’ve just given all the info & then got cut off. Getting hold of somebody has gradually got harder over time.

  @Debyoung76 @SkySports He buys fouls but don’t give him the chance. He gets fouled loads but if they don’t go down the refs don’t give, I know what I’d be doing, down every time.

  @theMadridZone @SkySports That’s a pretty big expansion of VAR... could help with fairness, but also might slow the game down even more...

  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.

  @totalBarca @SkySports A move for De Bruyne would’ve been great like 5 years ago. Now it’s not so sensational because he’s not the same! You can never trust players coming from Serie A. The Serie A tax is real and a lot of players from that league struggle when they leave ❌

  @SkySports It's summer in the USA dumb ***! Nothing to do with climate change! Lightning may be the only reason a game is delayed. It's been this was for centuries. So please shut ******** up already.

  In this ongoing test match at Lord’s, there has been a wicket every 25 ***** which is the third best in the history of the game in England. The previous best strike rates came in 1888 and 1907. So This pitch has the best strike rate in about 120 years in England. Stat courtesy @StuartBroad8 on SkySports. This pitch deserves criticism. More than it has already received. If not for rain and bad light the game could have been over in two days. #ENGvNZ
