Thoughts please.

Personally,I think it`s disgusting, especially in the times we are in right now.A kick in the teeth.for many,though I know a few will be happy paying £15,but I don`t think it`s right.

Sullivan will be singing in the bath tonight.

Somebody wrote this on another site and who can disagree.

They've realised how much they have missed the fans.

Not for the lack of atmosphere but for not being able to get their hands on their cash. Good work PL :lol: :lol:

Quite right, plus West Ham are not part of the PPV Octoberfest - Sky have our Tottenham and Man City games scheduled as part of their normal routine

...and I'm not paying 15 quid to watch any one else...ffs

Sorry Tim,but not everybody in the world is technically brilliant like you mate.I am lucky that I have benefited from the knowledge of the people on this site and started streaming myself.

If they find a way of stopping us all from streaming live football,will you have the same attitude then though?

I think its bloody disgusting and it`s only benefiting the very people(GSB) we want out of our club.

Not sure what the problem is tbh, You either pay it or you don’t.

I feel you Bruv - when you say "we do something about it"...it seems you either pay to watch (that tier of coverage) or you don't. Not sure how you "do" anything else...

You've hit the nail on the head Terry. Some will, some won't. All about choice. If there's a massive take up of the £15 prices will go up, no one buys it they'll come down. It's that simple.

But what I think is dumb is charging the same for every game. I wouldm't watch Burnley v Palace for example if someone paid me £15 tbh. ;)

This is a decent article on the subject.
