    Has @skytv been hacked & it's being kept quiet? Why would one lose all Sky TV & no one can help or explain. We're not the only ones. The silence from Sky is very worrying. @skyhelpteam

    @SkySports Do me a favour! Man U 1 v Villa 0 ok there is a problem. Carrick is best manager in the Premier League but he is boring. All this winning football games is rubbish. We only watched Man U games for the laughter, **** ups, comedian coaches spouting off their rubbish. We miss em

    Niall Griffiths (@niallgriffiths) reported from Manchester, England

    Broadband’s kaput, have been running diagnostics for two hours, went out to buy a new ADSL filter/cable only to be told by @SkyHelpTeam that it’s a local issue, it could take up to two days to fix, and they won’t let us know when it’s working again. Happy Friday, one and all.

    @SkySports Switzerland matched Argentina for large spells. Playing with 10 men against a team of that quality is an almost impossible task. However, football needs consistency. If Embolo's incident led to a red card, fans deserve to know why similar challenges often go unpunished.

  • SteveMaslinG

    @MichelleBeckett @SkyUK @VodafoneUK My 88 year old Mum was in hospital 6 weeks, Dad called her every day until Virgin Media cut off his phone without warning. Dad never missed a bill but they said he had exceeded his limit. When I complained their rep shouted "It's for their protection". Virgin Media are scum.

    @macmisanthrope @SkySports Oh well evens itself out.... Youll be telling me Kane wasnt fouled in the build up to Norways goal. Makes up for all the times weve been on the recieving end of bad calls...Mardonnas Hand, Lampards ruled out goal to name 2..

    @MichelleBeckett @SkyUK @VodafoneUK We had so many problems with EE when my dad died in October 2025. Apparently death does not terminate his contract with them, we are having to carry on paying for his sports package until the end of the 2 year contract, as I own the house. Outrageous!

    @Hucklegooner @AdamTweddell00 @SkySports They're milking the ******. Pushing it out there, horrible company. Hope it goes bust but it won't because of tiktok videos like this that will help generate a few £££
