Very poor from Sky in terms of coverage over all PL teams. Been watching since about 7pm after getting home from work and watching the score updates from EFL games. Zero mention of Ipswich, even though the Flemming transfer was still in the balance. Nothing about Cov at all but they weren't doing business today and Hull only getting mentioned after 10 when interviewing the owner.
When the guests asked about best window etc all about City spending loads and Chelsea selling, but none of it is a surprise the PL lets these guys spend unlimited money unchecked. Even when talking about big spending in the window zero mentions of Ipswich breaking Sunderlands record of money spent by promoted teams. Talking about surprise signings and no mention of a recent WC winner joining Ipswich from a UCL team.
I shouldn't be surprised really, its just disappointing the complete bias in reporting from Sky |  | | |  |

Their coverage is painful these days. Just randoms brought in to state the obvious as if it's some sort of analysis. |  | | |

I do think they are normally much more comprehensive with their coverage across the Premier League clubs. This time seems very much more focused on just a few instead. |  |

I've had it on in the backround all day, It's literally been about the city player all day, and then when it breaks they make it sound like it's a shock |  |

Agreed, a brief mention of Azeez to Brighton and an interview with the Hull Chairman but precious little outside the top six [Post edited 1 Sep 23:20]

I've been watching for most of the day and seem to recall mentioning Jamie Redknapp saying Enciso was a great signing by us. That's all we got really.
How they spent so much time talking about Alvarez to Arsenal - which we all knew wasn't taking place at the start of the day - and ignoring what was happening outside of a clutch of clubs, is a joke. I swear their coverage used to be better than this. | |

The BBC hasn't been much better, I've been checking all day to see what they have to say about Fleming coming here, nothing until the deal was done twenty minutes ago and now it will all be about Chelsea again for the rest of the night. |  |

Totally agree, it's poor. Focus is all on the top 6. Everton seem to get a lot of airtime.
The hoo ha over Monaco and Chelsea and the tug of.war between Sunderland and Crystal palace is what they really want. | | | |

I'm sick of it, City having a great window spending all this money they are doing great business. It's SO easy to do business when you have the freedom to throw huge fees and salaries at clubs and players. You don't have to be great at your job.
It is more difficult if you are Brentford, Bournemouth or a promoted club to convince players to join. It's so much harder to get Palacios/Enciso (Ipswich), Mendy/Tzolakis (Hull) and Yirenkyi (Coventry) to come and join a relegation battle but there is no recognition. As fans we all want our teams to get a little bit of the limelight, part of the destination seeing your club discussed more until they are not as they all just want to give air time to the big 6. Very dull. | | | |

And no mention at all of the 115 charges hanging over them and yet they're still happily spending without care. I wonder if it'll get sorted before one of Prince George's grandchildren is on the throne? | |

Sky are finally having a rational conversation about the state of transfer market, and the huge advantage of the big six. Such a shame it's so late in the day. | |

It’s all complete recycled garbage.
Let’s go to Man Utd training ground, let’s go to Chelsea’s, let’s go to Man City’s.
And repeat…. |  | | |

That's almost been the most interesting bit to f the coverage, the actual recognition its out of control in favour of the big 6 and the rule changes just give them greater advantage.
And there has been no verbal mention of Flemming signing, as yet and took 20 mins to make it onto the on screen ticker. | | | |

Just from watching their coverage, you would not seem to think that we are (I think?) the third biggest net spenders in the world for transfers, only behind Liverpool and Tottenham.
I think. | | | |

Not even close to third. 8 clubs spent more than us although on net spend we are third behind Spurs and Liverpool and on par with City and Arsenal. |  | | |
