If you want to watch football, the real thing not a ladies kickabout, you have no alternative but to subscribe to Sky and/or BT Sport (now TNT).

Then go up to spending £1.12 per day.
Your choice.

Cheaper than a season ticket anywhere in the EPL. And they only give you 19 matches, there are hundreds on Sky Sport and BT.
Plus it's not £1.12 a day, more like 32p.

Thanks but I think I'd rather have a root canal without anaesthetic than subject myself to that torture.

All the men appear to have left the BBC. Typically you can switch it and hear a woman announce the news is next in an advert and over to a woman reading the news, flipping to a second woman in some war zone, then back to a woman academic explaining a health issue, and then back to the woman in the war, who interviews crying women and two fucked up little boys who utter a word in some foreign language and then back to the woman in the studio.
A rule of thumb with men and women on the BBC is the women are always in the big powerful impressive roles and the men are always seen as screwed up or dodgy, e.g. next news item is 6 men convicted of murder. Great balance - the bitches have.

You're right, I was thinking of BT Sport, Sky with Sports is around £45 a month.
So I lied. Sue me.

The problem is that the cowboys who run such services have a half-life of about three months before the authorities nab them. Then you have to find another one, perhaps buy a new IPTV box, take out a new agreement etc. Too much hassle at my time of life.

You think? They were at it for five years and an android box doesn’t need replacing unless it’s really old. Having said that it’s all a big scam,Sky,the pre league Allie signed to partyou from your cash.

Their satellite plug was pulled years ago so the only way to UK TV is via IPTV.
Where we are the big dish still works for now but I'm expecting to have to go streaming in the not too distant future. Vendors are already offering hosting services for the Skystream box.

If Sky Sports is pricey at home, be thankful you're not a pub - fees can hit £20k per annum.
Unsustainable.
Sergeant Eldest Son, on a free day, will go to a local and watch the cricket. He's often in an audience of just 4 or 5. And he's not a big drinker, either..
