The hole SAFC are in is one caused by the sheer greed of the top 6. We need to hit back at the whole rotten setup.

One way to do it, pretty simply, is to cancel your Sky and BT subscriptions, get your friends, and family to do the same and spread the word on social media. We just need a hashtag to get the ball rolling...

Its not like. But I hate sky and I agree with what you are saying about the greed and the wankfest over the top 6.

Im in.
 
People thought Leicester winning the league was great for football.

I said it was terrible for football and would just make things worse as the big clubs would just throw more money at it.

Sky pumping money into English football isn’t the problem. The lack of regulation and fair distribution from the FA is the problem.

Imagine if when the last sky deal was agreed the FA said that the money would be given to the clubs as it had been but that ticket prices must be capped at £10 for a normal seat, £20 for a premium one, and £5 for a concession. Hospitality could be sold at the usual prices but no more than 10% of the attendance could come from hospitality.

You’d likely have full stadia throughout the league.

Instead all the money went on inflating already ridiculous player prices/wages/agent fees, the ticket prices remained as ludicrous as ever and the stadia remained as empty as ever.

It’s a real shame but all the extra sky money has done since the premier league was formed imho it take the game away from the affordability of the working classes.

Nah, have a protest mate. Chain yourself to a satellite up in space please.
 
It's not just Sunderland in this mess, there's enough clubs been on the receiving end and enough fans of those clubs to hurt sky - or at least cause them more pain than some badly spelt bed sheets.

Nah, was a good thing.

The increased money isn’t changing anything on the pitch - it’s just the same players and agents getting 500k a week instead of 300k a week.

It won’t stop the same thing as Leicester happening again, but the planets need to align: all the top clubs have an off year and another club assembles a group of players who show extreme improvement and organisation that same season.

That’s why they won it and it can and will happen again - not often though.
