Well played. We have been with them for years, special customer blah blah and they still want to charge for multi room so don't have it. It would be good to have but not essential.

You should qualify at least for the upgraded sky go? Do you have consoles you can run it through?

No I don't. I'd like it but not enough to really fight them over it. It's a shame that is what is needed but that is how Sky work. Maybe next renewal time we will get lucky and they will throw it in?

Hopefully! I really don't get SKY, anyone I ask always pays a different amount for differing services. They're a bit of a joke!
 
You need to give them a ring. You really wont have to twist an arm to get that reduced.
I know, I'm just partly too lazy, and partly that they'll call my bluff and I'll have to go without Sky for a while until they offer me a deal to come back. I've simply had Sky for over 10 years, and the bill just gets steeper and steeper.

I only have a Sky+ Box, sports package, basic package, broadband, phone (I've never even had a home phone) and land line. I did upgrade to HD a few years back, but no multi room or Sky Q (whatever they all mean, I just hear these terms flouted about). BT is a joke as well, as I think that is £30 or £40 a month and I only have it for the footy. There is absolutely no other sport I am interested in on BT.

I've thought about getting dodgy box, but always worried about the internet connection causing issues. I also love being able to live pause and rewind on Sky. And, finally, even if I get the hardware for dodgy box, apparently I need to find some dodgy guy on facebook to set it up. Just seems dirty, although watching 3pm kick offs is a nice thought.
 
Pick any team down to 8th. West Ham are on a par with Utd in terms of goals for and against. Arsenal’s defence is better but goals for is shy. They do have 3 games in hand, maybe expect them to win 2. If Wolves ever sort their poor goal scoring record… and then there’s Spurs. Will Spurs come good to chase down 4th? Doubt it but they’re in the mix.

Think I’d pick Arsenal for 4th.


the rearranged games for Arsenal will be critical, Chelsea, Spurs and Wolves games!

that said our new 5-3-1 formation seems to be working..................
 
For my sins, I think I pay £150 a month for Sky and BT. I don't even get movies :(

Is this a special telly clapper rate? :)

I pay £69 a month and get documentaries, sky sports and BT sports - not the Q box or multi room, and also land line and internet.

You need to play virgin and sky off against each other every 12-18 months, but £150 is sky high.
 
City v Gillingham playoff now on Sky. Oh the good ole days before oil money when we were everyone’s fave second team. ??
That was a memorable day out at WEMBERLEE.

And City fan's second team was us, because we often stopped the red side winning trophies, wasn't it?

We regularly beat you 4-0 home and away, but that didn't seem to stop you. :LOL::LOL::LOL::LOL::LOL::LOL:
 
What a performance from Liverpool. Thoroughly enjoyed it. Wasnt pretty at times but they went and matched Inter and eventually their quality shone through.

I remember when Italian football was the crown in european football jewel. Not no more. Over the last few seaaons we have seen many English teams V's italian teams. They're nothing but cheats.

Majority of Italian Football "fans" are thugs. I've seen at 1st hand Napoli fans in England. Their behaviour recently against my team was nothing short of abhorent.

I hope they all go out.

They really won't call your bluff, and even if they did you have to give a months notice so the day before its due to be cut off you can call and say you have changed your mind.

i have this dance with them every year. in the notice period i get nurmerous letters, emails and phone calls with various offers. Currently paying around £100pm for full SkyQ UHD including sports (not BT), movies etc , 2 extra multiroom boxes, phone line and fibre broadband.

When the mighty Fulham beat Juventus in the last 16 of the Europa Cup 4-1 at home it got a bit lively with their fans around Hammersmith. Police actually did a very good job that night.
