The sooner Sky/BT wise up and follow the NFL online subscription model, the sooner the majority of the problem will be eradicated. Music, Movies, and TV wised up, now its the turn of Sports.

I'm sure they'll be looking at the new ifollow set-up as a beta test.

It's not Sky - given the way they promote things like Deadline Day, don't you think they'd love to show every game if they could?

The FA ban 3:00p.m. kick offs being shown and limit the games that can be broadcast accordingly. Sky are just protecting their position because if people stream games they don't have, they'll use the same platform to stream games they do show as well.
 
The problem is not Sky. They aren't allowed to show 3pms because of archaic laws set down by the FA. They can and do it where they are allowed, ie not here.

Sky's problem is they show the top teams all of the time as that increases revenue for them. They are a business after all.

They aren't allowed to sell single club streaming rights but I bet they wish they were.

Why aren't they allowed out of interest?
 
they are so ignorant to the reason people watch streams, and it mainly because people want to watch their team not what sky tell them to watch. add to the fact its okay for the entirety of the rest of the world to watch every game just shows the contempt they have for the fans in this country

Eggsactly, I have a full Sky package but I have to watch illegal streams to see my team

All Country FAs in UEFA can apply a broadcast blackout on live football. The English FA ban all live football between 3pm and 5pm Saturday.

This is a ban on televising all football including foreign football such as La Liga.
 
Bunch of dinosaurs running the Premier League, you can't sensor the internet. People will always find a way. Sky viewership has decreased by 15% last year and it'll be their own fault when the bubble bursts in 2019 because they failed to keep up with the times.
do you know what the figures are for sky sports or even how many people pay for it ?
 
.. ISP's are never going to block VPN's ffs ..

It´s very easy to block.. The first step is to simply just allow traffic thru certain Ports, not the ones VPN use. After that you look for the VPN "handshakes" that will identify the VPN which means that you´ll need advanced software to fool the block.

VPNs have legitimate uses for businesses all over the country. They aren’t going to block them.
