Should be 'who's', not 'whose'!

As for tools parting with their money, not dissimilar to someone paying a fine for a toll crossing when perhaps they had made a genuine mistake and only had to appeal!!!

If 1st offence, don’t need to ‘appeal’, get let off. As someone’s already said. Keep up at the back.

So many sanctimonious posters on here. If people want to pay to watch their team play, it’s up to them.
It's not about watching their team. If you want to watch your team, go and support a local pub in the process. Or if you have to watch it at home, find one of the many moody TV links that everyone knows exists.

Don't give more money to Sky and encourage this daft price point/kick off time for years to come.

When fans are back in stadiums do you really think they are going to have midweek 5:30 kick offs?

Well the Europa League was doing it before Lockdown, so yes. If people think the current 'normal' is just that then the TV companies will do whatever they can get away with. Beggar's belief that mugs actually seem to think this is acceptable

It’s lovely being called various things isn’t it..by fellow supporters n all lol

I know but it's water off a ducks back as far as I'm concerned. I've paid and I'll be watching with my daughter and brother so effectively a 5 each.

I suspect there are many who are whinging (not all but many) who already subscribe to Sky and in doing so are also effectively endorsing what they do.

Aye...it’s like those that moan about the price of football but still want the club to spend astronomical sums on a player

It's quite depressing seeing people say they will pay for it. It'll just encourage the broadcasters to keep whacking up the price (and show games at a ridiculous kick off time).

Even Barber has said the price is silly.

Don't do it

I'm not defending Sky (or the price) but this isn't Sky profiteering. The profits are going to the clubs.

The last thing Sky want is a PPV service they make no money from attracting customers away from subscribers. Clearly that's why they have set the price so high.

Pressure came from the clubs and the government to make all games available, not Sky or BT.

I'm sure Paul Barber and all the other clubs CEO and chairman disagree with the price. Why Sky set it so high should be quite obvious.

When I heard it was going to be PPV, I decided I'd pay not a penny more than £14.90 to watch.

I can't believe my bad luck.

I bet you read the Daily Mail, vote Concervative, think the Country is being over run with migrants and everyone on benifits are scrounges

Seeing as you ask, the answers are: no; usually but not always; yes; the majority of them.

You could just buy more wholesome food and put it directly in the donation bin next time you visit a supermarket.
