General English Premier League

[Hardyman's Yugo]

A dud goal in 1966, ok they were robbed by the hand of god in Mexico but their performance in big games is terrible.

I was watching at 1 - 0 and as the half went on it was clear the Italians were building, the English wanted the game to end then.

That was the in joke when video recorders became popular in the 1980’s, you could see if Geoff Hursts goal was over the line. Hwas in the telly last night, he said it was in so that’s good enough for me

Your comment about the Italians building is correct, that’s why we needed a Grealish on the pitch. He’s extremely difficult to knock off the ball, instead we booted it upfield, let the Italians have it back so they could build yet another attack. So obvious to me yet the manager couldn’t see it ffs.

It’s so long since we won our only trophy that Hurst is one of only 4 of the 11 still alive

I couldn't believe what I was seeing...I have 1/16th English heritage...so I guess I still felt a little for them. But if a manager couldn't see that FFS!!!!

Being a Sunderland fan I hate Newcastle. I also don’t like the new owners, despite the PR they are basically the people that had a Saudi dissident chopped up and put in a suitcase.

Best of luck to Wood, but I hope they get relegated

Was the VAR decision against awarding Everton a penalty for hand ball the type of TMO decision handed out to Warriors on a regular basis.

A clearer handball it would be hard to imagine

not quite the same....

With Spark Sports all the shows, replays, highlights and extended highlights would be on demand now and easy to search and watch. Sky sport is shit.

Totally agree

Having to wait until Sky play a highlight of a game of interest is shite

I would rather use pigeons...just a wank of an outfit.

Ok, just spent half hour on the phone with sky trying to see if there is something that will work for me. My sky subscription covers mysky and skygo. My tv can only get the skynow app not the skygo app. I don't want to cast from my phone because then when I'm not home my boys can't watch the prem league highlights which they do all the time. Looking at skynow app and it looks very good and has everything I need. Quite similar to sparksport content. May even be better. Cost annually is around $400 which is basically what I'm paying for sky sport now. So I'm thinking I might cancel sports and get sky sports now which has the same but more and is streamed

Edit:. And it appears that the sky people and the sky sport now people are separate to each other as I have to contact them separately to organize skysportnow and cancel skysports

The Sky Sport Now streamer app is pretty terrible also, be weary...... I used the 7 day trial (ask for a trial?), limited on demand games. Mostly just highlight packages.

I was using Kayo (Aussie sport streaming) last season - what an app, so so good. Sky should just licence whatever they use.
Sky still appears to be run by limited old fucks who have no idea what streaming is/should be.

Another indepth response which adds nothing to the discussion

Yes, just signed up to the 7 day trial to check it out. Looks like it has what I need for premier league so far. Depends how long the highlights and on demand stuff stays available for on the app to be able to watch. Seems weird that there is now 2 different apps for sky as well as the set top box.

My experience over the years with Spark as a company has been so bad that I honestly would never use them again for anything. Does that add anything?

Ex Man United legend Ryan Giggs is in court on charges of beating up his girlfriend. The trial is expected to last up to 3 weeks, it’s only Wednesday of week 1 and he’s already coming across as a bit of a wrong ‘un (allegedly)

Wasn't Giggs as a kid a major League fan, and still is.
