FrankieADZ Posted 3 August 2015 Share Posted 3 August 2015 think they are both pretty decent tbf BT Sports will have more football(but thats cos they have the European stuff, probably la liga too now) if you want English you go with Sky Sports, go with Virgin instead tho if you want both imo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Manwell Pablo Posted 3 August 2015 Share Posted 3 August 2015 I've got Virgin, what's so great about their joint deal? I am tempted by Sky Sports this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frost Posted 3 August 2015 Share Posted 3 August 2015 Sky are getting worse and worse. Holloway joining as a pundit for the Football League. Shame BT persist with crap as well. Would be refreshing not having to constantly listen to former players because they speak utter nonsense half the time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan LCFC Posted 3 August 2015 Share Posted 3 August 2015 If it was up to me I'd seriously be considering BT now. Cannot believe Sky have managed to lose La Liga. Is it just me or are Sky seriously starting to lose their grip? Lost the Champions League, lost La Liga, seem to have lost credibility in terms of how good a source they are. I might be being picky but they just don't seem like they are what they were. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I might be being picky but they just don't seem like they are what they were. They haven't lost it aa such. 16 teams have agreed to collective bargaining. Barca and 3 others haven't so by making any deal with the other 16 they would then have to do separate deals with the other 4 teams for their home games. All very messy. I would guess barca and madrid are the draw in that league. Especially as they normally show both every weekend. I would guess if it stays as it is one broadcaster will strike a deal for the 16 and the other will take showing barca every other week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fuchsntf Posted 3 August 2015 Share Posted 3 August 2015 Sky, is still the best at the moment, but glad that others are around giving them competition, and something to think about. SNF, Cricket, F1, European Football, leagues ahead. Rugby has been lost to Sky, Punditry is a matter of personal taste, Sky in all sports reporting is London bias. All channels have unknowledgeable, middle-class idiots getting their facts wrong reporters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Royston. Posted 4 August 2015 Share Posted 4 August 2015 how does the sky sport day pass work and can you buy a day pass as often as you like or do you only get one? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bayfox Posted 4 August 2015 Share Posted 4 August 2015 how does the sky sport day pass work and can you buy a day pass as often as you like or do you only get one? If you do it for now TV, it's £6.99 for 24 hours, it's a solid 24 hours from when you activate (ie start watching) you are meant to now be able to get a months pass, but not seen it on my PS3 yet. You can buy as many as you want as far as I know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Royston. Posted 4 August 2015 Share Posted 4 August 2015 was checking it out yesterday. now tv do a day, week, month pass. it would be possible then to just have a day pass for the days that leicester will be on tv, well worth the £6.99 if you compare it to actually being at the game.

RonnieTodger Posted 4 August 2015 Share Posted 4 August 2015 Sky lose all these things like the Champions League but the price still goes up because they've got a few more Premier League games. **** the Champions League, I'm happy with a Palace v Southampton and Villa v Stoke double header!

Dan LCFC Posted 4 August 2015 Share Posted 4 August 2015 didnt they introduce sky sports 5 a while ago especially for the champs. league? European football channel, which happens to be full of things like classic Barca v Madrid games etc... it had some La Liga, some Champions League and the Eredivisie. They might as well get rid of it now. Who has the rights for Bundesliga and Serie A? I'd love to watch those 2 live BT have both of them. If I'm not mistaken, BT Sport now have some of the Premier League, the Champions League, La Liga, the Bundesliga, Serie A & Ligue 1, as well as some others. That's an absolute tonking of what Sky have now. If I lived on my own there's no way on earth I'd have Sky now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

La Liga is still in the balance, I managed to drop my sky bill down by 18 and have now got BT for 20 quid. I'll still watch sky for F1 and obviously the prem games, but for BT I'll get all the European games plus the Rugby which I will watch a decent amount of. Worse off financially by 2 quid haha. But the choices are decent! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's no choice involved as they show different games you can't choose to watch one or the other. It's certainly not driving the price down another aspect of a real competitive set up if anything it's driving the cost up even to the extent of getting less for more.

Staffs Fox Posted 5 August 2015 Share Posted 5 August 2015 I have Sky but I also have access to BT and unless you're a European Football Hipster there's no contest, Sky has 3 times more PL games and the Football League which I love watching. Also it has the Cricket, NFL and F1 which are the only 3 other sports I really like, BT is amassing an impressive set of European rights on paper but quite frankly I rarely watch the CL unless its a big knockout tie and I have better things to do than watch Werden Bremen vs Hamburg I don't listen to analysis from either coverage though as I can't stand it, Nev and Carra on a Monday is ok though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FrankieADZ Posted 5 August 2015 Share Posted 5 August 2015 Sky have just won the rights for La Liga for the next 3 seasons, glad they have, there La Liga cover is brilliant imo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain... Posted 5 August 2015 Share Posted 5 August 2015 Does BT have anything like Match choice extended highlights? That is the best thing about Sky for me 60 minutes of highlights from every Leicester game, that and cricket coverage, and the fact it is half price for me.
