What principle?

The principle that is the TV equivalent of buying the Sun newspaper.

I am not a Murdoch fan. I think that he is part of a pervasive set of influences on British culture that continue to dumb everything down to the level of the lowest common denominator.

Yeah, I bet.

Good one! Really fresh thinking there. Great.

Far more fresh then you moaning at every single opportunity.

Someone do Snelly a favour a redirect him to a darker corner of the internet where he can relieve some 'tension'...

As for not buying Sky on principle, then moaning about free to air wall to wall coverage - and then seriously referring to 'irony' I can only think this is a massive troll attempt

Well you already seem quite fond of the lowest form of wit. Are you sure Murdoch hasn't got to you?

You can chose to watch whatever you like. Sadly the way of the world. Surprised your knocking BBC if your so against Sky. Good old right wing biased TV!

I guess the same people will be moaning next year when Sky's coverage is constantly interrupted by advert breaks.

This, I can't cope with how much adverts are on when they show the masters. The open will be the same one sky start showing it. Then all the people who are moaning about the BBC now will be moaning about the adverts.

Not me. I won't buy Sky on principle.

I don't quite get that Snelly? I'm 100% in agreement with you on Sky, I refuse to give Murdoch money. But in that case, why knock the BBC so much? Other than dodgy internet streams, it's all we've got when we refuse Sky. So I can understand being a critical friend and pointing out flaws, but not the anger and vehemence that so many of us felt was present in your earlier posts?

Give that man a cigar. Very well put.

I have Sky, however BBC for me still wins hands down when it comes to uninterrupted golf and the delights of "old" Peter. However I respect other people have different opinions and views.
 
I cant complain about the BBC feed

Having to stream coverage and the site for the BBC feed is far more stable & smoother picture than those I have to use for Sky, Golf channel etc

No ad breaks is almost like a novelty and Peter Alliss is quite happy to have a pop at the R&A over ticket prices etc which is much more refreshing to hear than the 'toe the line' guff spouted at Augusta
