Reported where

Just anecdotal evidence to be honest and the odd reference in the press. But lots of people fed up with paying top prices for Sky Sports that no longer guarantee access to all the top sporting coverage, with the rise of BT Sports and on line feeds etc. Even the US Open tennis and away Ashes matches have been lost. Throw in the predictability of the Prem and it being top heavy with small/dull clubs and it's logical that people will stop paying so much for Sky.

Fair enough

Zicos article supports you but if he'd used figures from 12 months later, it would've shown increased profits

As somebody who doesn't really watch prem stuff, I'm probably not a typical customer and I'm sticking with em for a while yet

Must admit, packing the schedules with shit women's sports won't do em any favours

Women's RU, while BT have the men's prem being a case in point

Also, that Scouse bint ex player gets right on my tits

Dusky Londoner is fine...miles better than carragher, Mcinally et al

Red button will kill midweek away numbers.

Definitely. Won't do home numbers much good either. I can see me swerving a few, and that's with a season ticket.

We’d of took decent following few years back but the red button ain’t going to help our following. 

What's the deal with the red button? Does it work on virgin media? Can I watch it on a laptop if I have sky sports on virgin??

I’m not sure how it works on lap top but would think it does.

Think you just log into the app with your Sky ID.

I will be there because i'm a luddite who doesn't have or doesn't understand gadgets & can't stand trying to listen to Tower...."& Beyonce from Moses Gate says come on you whites "

Christ on a bike, there's some talent in that Stoke side, however poorly they may be playing at the moment.

I'd take a point all day long right now.

Their forums are very similar to ours during our first year back in the championship,  swinging wildly between those glad to be out of the prem, those upset at the wasted opportunities and those who have just fell out with football altogether! 

Our best chance, as ever, is to get that first goal. Can't see it mind. 0-2 loss

Be better if we had a week from Derby to this. Our squad and style (chasing teams down) will struggle with 3 games in a week. They all ran their socks off against Derby so will be tough going at Stoke who surely have to get going soon? If we had a week off I'd fancy us, but tiredness might mean we're struggling a bit.

I expect Wildschut and Dyer to start in place of Buckley and Noone purely for that reason.

Red button is awful, you can get it on Virgin, but only works from football channel.

 

Bloke at work is a Rotherham fan says they were very good first half on Saturday. Even at 2 up he never thought Rotherham would win.

The M6 + red button = less than 400 whites

More than 50 miles away in any direction + red button = decimated away support.

Sky, killing football since 1992

Red button = commentators that are more accustomed to commentating on the bookies feeds for greyhounds

Would you prefer Sky let some of those clueless women do it?

Stoke 2 Bolton 1

[Zico]

Well I'm a big fan of red button anyway, fuck all chance of going Stoke or Boro away midweek

I'd have watched them on ifollow anyway

It'll affect some clubs but not others, Bristol took a couple of thousand to West Brom last time out for example

[bolty58]

Any points at all would be welcome from this one.

Still pissed off about my lost laces.
