    @SkySports Use this table, Relegate villa and Norwich Bring up top 2 from championship As there will be no playoffs no need for a 3rd team to go down This has nothing to do with being a West Ham fan 👀

  • hunners85 Gary Hunnable (@hunners85) reported from Eight Ash Green, England

    @starch35 @SkySports Ok, misunderstanding. When you said they, I thought you meant spurs. I’ll stand down.

  • jta1497 Right Here Right Now.... (@jta1497) reported from Chelmsford, England

    @desiUTD__ @Scottea29426991 @SkySports Grow up, it's called responsibility. You bloody lefties never give it a rest do you!

  • Shippers1878 Mark Shipley (@Shippers1878) reported from Galleywood, England

    Whilst it’s a complete rip off who gets the £15 from the football PPV deal? Absolutely they can go to **** if it just lines @SkySports and @btsportfootball pockets.

  • glennspurs1968 glenn broadmore (@glennspurs1968) reported from Ingatestone, England

    @SkySportsPL @SkySports Never a pen, typical Manc biased Ref again, pathetic

  • howiesway Darren (@howiesway) reported from Chelmsford, England

    @SkyUK have had calls in the last 2 days claiming to be Sky telling me I have a problem with my internet speed and need my details. As soon as I questioned them they hung up.. I am assuming this is a scam..

  • howiesway Darren (@howiesway) reported from Chelmsford, England

    @SkyHelpTeam if overhead fibre has been installed in my street how do I get it to my house to be used with Sky Broadband? My standard Sky Broadband is very slow and hoping fibre to my house will make the difference.

  • ant_pole Anthony pole (@ant_pole) reported from Danbury, England

    @SkyHelpTeam I have tried calling and going through various steps with some one kn the phone and nothing worked. Its still awful

  • delabole delabole (@delabole) reported from Witham, England

    @SkyHelpTeam every day the sky has a problem with signal even when there is slightest bit of wind and rain .. sort it out sky .. you charge enough !!!

  • FACoachdazza Darren Skingle FA Licensed Coach (@FACoachdazza) reported from Chelmsford, England

    @lachojski @SkySports Pen last night was VAR , that shirt pull was never enough to make trezeguet fall over like that (he’s another diver btw) most of the tackles on Grealish weren’t fouls but he makes sure with his theatrical dives as does Salah all the time ....... wise up refs

  • JosephC79946324 Joseph Clarke (@JosephC79946324) reported from Silver End, England

    @SkyHelpTeam why is my speed so slow, crazy !!!!

  • GVWard61 Graham Ward (@GVWard61) reported from Kelvedon, England

    @SkySports why can’t you just give a balanced review of a game. You go about your business as if the whole world are only interested in Man Utd and Liverpool. It may help to have non connected ex players in the studio as all they want to do is talk about their team. Just an idea

  • MaxineTJones Maxine Trick Jones (@MaxineTJones) reported from Great Baddow, England

    @SkyHelpTeam we want to remove multi screen as we don’t use it. Can’t do it online and phone is an everlasting wait. Can you help?

  • kenteba Stuart Kent© (@kenteba) reported from Braintree, England

    @SkyHelpTeam trying to sort a sky mobile issue out, been on hold for over 45 mins, it said there was only a 20 min wait time

  • jpsanders71 JonnyS (@jpsanders71) reported from Witham, England

    @SkySports Whatever the true reason I would think a pretty large proportion of the population will see completing the season as only being about money. If they go ahead it may solve a short term cash problem but their reputation will be f*#ked. Cancel the season now!

  • MartinEcott1 Madasahatter29 (@MartinEcott1) reported from Great Baddow, England

    @JeffStelling Soccer Saturday will never be the same if u go and neither will Saturday afternoons when I'm not at Kenilworth Road. I'd switch to BT sport and seriously consider my @SkySports subscription

  • Elvisofessex Andy Butcher (@Elvisofessex) reported from Black Notley, England

    @skytv @SkyHelpTeam I ordered a remote control from sky, it never arrived, I phoned again and I was promised it will be sent out , it never arrived, I telephoned last week and I was assured that I would get it within 72 , it never arrived. Help please.

  • drivergrace Dean grace (@drivergrace) reported from Witham, England

    @_FootballTheory @SkySports I really don’t understand how they can’t see what the problem was Saturday?

  • ant_pole Anthony pole (@ant_pole) reported from Danbury, England

    @SkyUK I have had the new apparently super fast broadband for a few months now and it is ******* awful it cant connect more than 2 things to it and it keeps disconnecting. We have no signal what so ever upstairs.

  • Vince79938535 Vince..Critic (@Vince79938535) reported from Witham, England

    @SkyUK I have not watched or listened to anything thats BBC Related since 1995. And I don't miss it. Wills take the BBC down.

    @donnies190584 @SkySports From an entertainment point of view the main problem with the camera is that it has been turned on!

  • VerneLewis Verne (@VerneLewis) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam Hi. We received our Sky Q Hub today - all connected to the internet fine BUT the box makes an awful high pitched noise. We’ve tried turning it off and on again and dusting it but it’s still there. Very loud and very annoying. Can you help please?

  • HumanityReality ☆CycleEye☆ (@HumanityReality) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam You tell me. I ordered a sky Q box..even your engineer was suprised when he saw it was only a sky HD box.. I specifically I asked for the sky Q box because I wanted to use my apps on it which it what your customer service guy told me I was getting. How do I complain .

  • lilmissstace87 Stacy H (@lilmissstace87) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam I followed the guide but the option for the issue is not there. I went for one closest and that doesn't answer my question either. What can I do now please? Lights on hub are green, but devices keep disconnecting randomly from it.

  • EmmaMil83079071 Emma 🤷🏻‍♀️ (@EmmaMil83079071) reported

    @SkyUK I need help with my account. Every time I try to upgrade my package it says my account is closed. Can someone help?

  • nkdaydreamer MADDY MC 💙 (@nkdaydreamer) reported

    @SkyUK Hi need your help need a copy of email re-send to me the 1st email welcome to sky mobile must have date on it ...its for Samsung claim. Please please help .TY

  • LeggateAlex Alex Leggate (@LeggateAlex) reported

    Is the Scottish football commentary on @SkySports always this poor? Makes it all the more disappointing that the @spfl sold out the exclusive Premiership rights to a company that only care about showing two teams' games.

  • Aaronnnnssss Aaron (@Aaronnnnssss) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam does your broadband just not work in the OL12 area? Goes down about 20-30 times a day

  • NoButterNoSauce John O'Sullivan (@NoButterNoSauce) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam I’m due my next update on 15/2. Yet again there will be no positive news. I’ve made a complaint and the escalations team tell me there’s nothing they can do. Pointless to divert me to your online help sections where you get cut off when you phone.

  • Roryk7 Rory Kincaid (@Roryk7) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam It didn't work just sends me to call the support center the same as the last 10 times I've done this today! Do if you don't have a solution just say Andy get an engineer to call me tomorrow.
