Is anyone actually paying SKY for football on 20:30 - Sep 20 with 1476 views | Ace_High1 | Yes has been hard to get too excited about the matches although Chelsea v Liverpool was decent. I pay for it for all of the other sport as well. For example the final round of the US Open is on right now..... |  | |  |

With regards to SKY coverage ...I think the commentators and pundits are pretty crap. I have to turn the sound off when Martyn Tyler is on...so I can stay awake. Gosh he is boring...wittering on and on and on. And the other guy who keeps saying when some swearing is audible..." we apologise for the 'inappropriate language " WHAT! It's a blinking football match you idiot...how is it inappropriate? Hate to say it but BBC coverage is miles better. |  |

The football is still good to be fair, I got over the no fans thing, months ago |  |

Is anyone actually paying SKY for football on 06:46 - Sep 21 with 1182 views | JammyDodgerrr | Yeah been paying since the start of lockdown for the deal, split between some friends so the cost is negligible. The best and worst thing for me, is that I've totally stopped noticing there isn't crowds anymore. I think the crowd noise is really well done, and I genuinely enjoy them to the same level as before, which is obviously wrong as fans should be there; but it is what it is right now. |  |

Is anyone actually paying SKY for football on 08:50 - Sep 21 with 1042 views | Parmigiano | The fake crowd noise is ridiculous, totally unnecessary and patronising to the viewer. It's the football equivalent of using dubbing instead of subtitles. But I'm really enjoying watching the games in natural sound. It's so interesting hearing the players and managers communicating; we've never really heard that before in the higher leagues. |  | |  |

The fake crowd noise is ridiculous. I miss those songs informing the viewer on the performance of the referee. |  |

I prefer it to no noise, the early Bundesliga games without the sound were a bit surreal |  |

I do also enjoy the clunking noise the frame of the nets make when a goal is scored! |  | |  |
