Bullies, belittles and labels sports fans as "cheap" for daring to ask about potential discounts on tickets.

Brags about getting the cheapest deal he can on broadband then STEALS £1000s of films and tv series by illegally streaming them online.

Hypocrisy Rules!

Just done the same, used to be on Plusnet, then switched to BT a couple of months ago, same deal for sport. Also watch on Sky box.
Amazon Prime for me works because of the free shipping. Buy all Christmas and kids birthday presents on line, shipping charges add up quick (especially when you buy your son a weight bench, and 160kilos of assorted weights).

i have kodi on the amazon fire stick.
plus a zgemma box.
i mainly use a bt box mind.
got rid of sky. terrible service

Getting rid in January. I have had SKY for years and have everything including internet. Price has crept up and up to the point it costs almost 100 quid a month! I'm not continuing to pay to line footballers pockets whilst the sports i actually bother with are scaled back or cut altogether.

I know someone who can get me a quality box that does all the channels for a fraction of the cost of SKY.. will also mean i get BT and Premier sports included so will have Champions league and NRL back on the menu

that's a zgemma/ open box.
had sky for 25 years and had enough

£50 a year for Sportsnation HD. Every sporting channel available, all pay per view events & EPL 3pm kick offs included. And if you can't be d with Kodi they have an android/iOS app.

I'm a bit behind the times. Does that mean that if you have an Android TV you can get Sportsnation without a firestick?

I think only Sony and Philips at present are fully android, so you could on those yeah. Otherwise it would be a firestick/android box connected to your tv.

It's entirely honourable and sensible for an increasing number of customers to turn their backs on lining the pockets of tax-dodging, phone-hacking, working class hating billionaires like Murdoch and switching instead to legal, open-source software for research purposes. There are lots of interesting add-ons out there which are well worth investigating



Far better to aid the struggling coffers of a sport with severe financial issues like RL by investing some of those savings made by paying a fair price for tickets to internationals, as opposed to staying at home because one cannot secure discounted tickets for a fiver each like some were in 2013.

Just looked at their list of channels. Pretty much the same channel lineup as an add-on called IPTV Stalker (though thankfully it's not been up and running for over a decade

), which also became subscription-based a year or two ago.

If you want guaranteed access to sports then you have to pay a small subscription. I've no idea how good these pay services are because I don't use any. OTOH, all the sport is there for free elsewhere but it's never guaranteed that you'll find it, or that the stream will be consistently good.

On the subject of Kodi, it's free to download and watch on your PC/Laptop. If you want to watch it on your TV, any droidbox will do, or install Kodi on a firestick if you've got one. A good broadband connection preferably using an ethernet cable (as opposed to wifi) also helps.

Good move.

Have you actually given notice (31 days) to Sky yet of your intention to cancel?

If you have, you'll probably already have an offer to stay of 50% discount for 12 months or even 60% discount. Once you go through with the disconnection of services and not give in to their offers and pressure sales, that discount will likely jump to 75% plus £50 or £100 credit.

Anyone paying full rack rate for such a lousy service needs to have a word with themselves

If you have the time or inclination to search through stream after stream on Kodi to find a decent free one then fair play. I tried this method but did not have the patience! For about 13p a day I'm not complaining



I've had SportsNationHD over a year now and it's been class, the IOS app takes it to another level for me. There's also a Sports on demand section where all the top games (including NRL) are stored and if you miss them airing live you can watch them whenever u want.

Will be phoning through a week on friday as new service will be installed some time late Jan. Yes i expect to get that kind of treatment, i know of a guy i work with been living off BT and SKY deals for a few years with the special offers for 6months at a time 'trials'..little like yourself i suspect?



I have been too lazy to barter to be fair. When i tot up the savings though i could have and will make in the future i probably do need to have a word

I don't know anything about free trials. I always pay but rarely do I pay full whack. Companies rely on people being lazy and therefore easy to rip off with extortionate prices.

I've saved over £1000 a year on TV subs, phone and broadband combined just by switching (or threatening to switch) every 12 months. I know I save over £400 a year in gas/electricity costs compared to standard charges. I've switched gas/elec three times in the last 18 months alone.

I have two broadband connections, Virgin (200Mbps) at half price and also an ASDL connection which I hardly use (It's either BT or Plusnet) which is often given free or just a few quid a month with the phone but it all comes in handy when I phone any of them up to cancel or re-negotiate another contract. I never ever throw in my lot for TV, phone and broadband bundles with just the one company as that weakens any negotiating position.

Makes sense. I need to change my ways!

oh, and i meant paying a significantly reduced fee like yourself,not for free as i stated.

So...

Stealing from someone you don't like is honourable (also illegal) and should be encouraged, even if you can afford the costs AND considering that it could have a huge effect on the future of the game you claim to love.

Families looking for discounted tickets to go to as many international games as possible during a tournament are cheapskates and not real fans of the game they pretend to love.

Troll Logic.







Oh and there was only 1 game at a fiver.... that was in Ireland. Nobody went.

who? or if? depends if he has learnt his lesson from last year.
i'm not holding my breath

I'm sure it will be bargain basement time - I'm thinking O'Brien from Bradford absolutely fits the bill in this regard. Free, cheap, can put some spin on him being 'one of hottest young hookers in the game'.... despite the fact 'average' is his absolute ceiling...

I would say keeping your squad fit in 2017 might help your situation.A situation you have yet to prove.Minimal recruitment made,whats to say you won't be in that middle 8's again.

most of us agree with you. looking bleak

www.yorkshireeveningpost.co.uk/s ... -1-8302879 Segeyaro's contract has been cancelled and we are no longer paying him but still have his registration and aren't letting him go until someone offers a reasonable fee. Would imagine Cronulla are/were hoping to wait until Leeds just said he could go for nothing now that we have a replacement and GH is standing his ground on getting some sort of fee.

If no one is prepared to pay a fee GH will simply let him rot - that would be difficult to enforce - restraint of trade and all that especially if there is now no contract in place.

just let it go. we have a replacement.

I'm with GH on this one - let him rot. Even with Christmas spirit I can't forgive his treachery.
