Caroline Manners (@tigercat004) reported from Maidstone, England@SkyHelpTeam I haven't been able to access my emails for 3 days. I tried to reset my password but it won't let me and tells me to call the help number. When I call the message says ur answering calls in an hour. Ridiculous, I just need access to emails urgently.

Pezza (@pezza1) reported from Ashford, England@itvfootball ‘s coverage of the England game is terrible, I suppose I have got used to the quality of @SkySports and @btsport I’ve got to turn the sound off it’s hurting my ears!

Sean Adams (@smadams96) reported from Snodland, EnglandCan’t believe i’ve watched 40 hours (4 seasons) of Game of Thrones just for @SkyUK to put all of the seasons in sky store except season 8 charging £23.99 per season. My mum being a loyal customer for 11 years rings up to complain and has no resolution proposed whatsoever 😃

Scott FFC Tanfield (@Scott_Tanfield) reported from Maidstone, England@suzifulham @O2 Seems to be zero loyalty for long term customers these days. @SkyUK are just as bad, been with them 14 years, honked my bill up from £60 odd quid a month, to the best part of £100, and were disinterested in re-applying my discounts.

Jack Godden (@JackG1210) reported from Ashford, England@SkyUK I would strongly advise people to think carefully before entering into a contract with Sky. Brilliant customer service until signed up then abysmal service afterwards. Delivery debacles raged on for days & losing a customer of 7.5years is worth a £10 goodwill offer.

Kevin O'Brien (@khobr1en100) reported from Ashford, England@SkySportsPL @SkySports It was not a "Great free kick," but it was an awful piece of goal keeping. Luca Milivojevic scored with a "Great free kick," against Bournemouth last week when the goalkeeper was beaten despite his very best efforts. If he had been in goal for Watford he would have saved it.

Marie Chapman (@kentishmaz) reported from Maidstone, EnglandBit sad that @SkyUK are putting prices up now and not just by a little bit, after 10 years with them. Along with the worry of not working for a few weeks 😳

Adam (@adamhollman) reported from Marden, EnglandI wonder if football players and clubs will realise that if they don’t reduce their wages and help club staff or those in need around them they’ll have no fans when it returns. @ChelseaFC @ManUtd @ManCity @LFC @SpursOfficial @LCFC @Arsenal @SkySportsPL @SkySports @BBCSport

Peter Carrigan (@Wonderwall4393) reported**** I feel old.. Watching skysports news and they’re talking about Adriano as if he was playing 50 years ago. The boy had the potential to be remembered as one of the best we seen but sadly didn’t live up to it. But let’s no talk as if he was linking up with Pele fs.

Matt Enderle (@Matt_Enderle) reported.@SkySports Enough with the ear-splitting EDM on the #WomensUSOpen coverage. I haven’t done nearly enough drugs to make that **** palatable.

Tubosun Falowo (@precinoti) reportedVAR 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.

Hewbo 🐝 (@timhewitt1) reported@thegingerwig Because they’re cheap and their **** opinions get clicks. It’s why @SkySports has invested in the rapid decline of sports journalism… hell sometimes they put @MiguelDelaney on the tv. They’ve hit rock bottom.

Thomas Findlay (@EseTomFindlay) reported@tbfl141 @SkySports I imagine it is, and that’s a problem. But they would say walking off isn’t the correct response but reporting it to the referee is.
