So Eng v Belgium 5pm isn't on terrestrial TV :( 14:36 - Oct 11 with 2562 viewsRyorry

Thanks a bunch (not) murdoch - again

I know many don't enjoy or bother following England internationals any more, but for those who do, it's another slap in the face from S**

Poll: Why can't/don't we protest like the French do? 🤔

Murdoch sold Sky a couple of years ago.

It's not a slap in the face from Sky. They are a business adding content to try and get subscribers. It's a slap in the face from the FA who have chosen short term financial gain over the bigger picture of everyone seeing the national team.

I didn't know the Eng v Wales game was on ITV the other night, just happened to be channel-hopping before it started and saw it was on!

I'll just listen to R5L (assuming it's on there) whilst cooking dinner, certainly wouldn't pay Sky to watch it. I think highlights will be on ITV later anyway, if it turns out to be a decent game.

I think England are on TalkSport these days.

The national team should be freely available on the national broadcaster, end of. Not stuck behind paywalls or loaded with adverts.

You might want to edit it now as it can cause Phil and Gav problems.

While I see your point; the likes of Apple don't need more money either but it's still not acceptable to go into an Apple store and steal an iphone.

Stop being silly - that is no more stealing than is watching a game from a tower block looking down on the pitch,

Taking an iphone is taking an item, something that is tangible.

I think you'll find it is stealing...

I do realise that it isn't quite the same but it is quite clearly illegal.

No... Just wondering if you think it's wrong or not to stream sport.

If you aren't paying for Sky Sports then any other method of watching it is illegal in the UK.

Not that fussed about you taking money off Sky but didn't agree with some other posters recommending services with free Sky and free iFollow where the club wouldn't get any money.

The law is the law. Sadly the greed of the governing bodies means more and more ends up requiring an extra payment. I love watching football but I won't be paying £15 a game to watch Premier League games so I won't see them.

Free was the wrong term, sorry.

I believe he said he paid 20 quid a month or something to get all sport on Sky, BT, foreign channels, all iFollows for all teams etc.

Clearly hugely illegal but he didn't see it that way.

I see. To be honest with you i hardly watch it. I was happily paying last year £19.99 for all the sports channels on Sky using NowTv but when they put it up to £25 i said enough is enough.

Fair point, & I'll agree criticism's also due of the FA & the ECB etc., but it was Miredoch/Sky who planted the original seed about hiving various sports off so that the general public had to either cough up extra cash (which many couldn't/can't afford,) that had previously been free-to-air (paid for by licence fee or adverts) just so he & other privateers could get stinking rich and ruin football in the UK in the process.

SPOILER alert -

What did you think of the R5l comm for Eng v Belg this eve? I thought first half dreadful - didn't realise either side had got a pen & then scored; nor that Belgium's first goal was disallowed, for a *very* long time - commentator didn't change his voice one tiny little bit from when either side was just passing it around in midfield! You'd have thought it was a L1 training game.

I gave up with it at half-time, then watched the dodgy stream that someone posted!

You're right though, it was very flat, but I got the same impression listening to Brenner yesterday - I didn't realise Chambers had scored initially. I think it must be the empty stadiums and lack of atmosphere.

Although Sky snapped up the Nations League contract around the time he left, so he could well have been involved. Doesn’t really matter much either way though, they’re carrying on much as they were when Murdoch were there. Fans will always be secondary to them.
