The National Team should always be on terrestrial TV or free to air.

This is why streaming is justified.

Smeg, I have Sky, but not the slightest interest in watching the game. I am tuned into BT Sport watching the England cricket team getting humiliated.

Murdoch has sold sky, right?

Didn’t hear you cvnts complain for the last god know how long that most Scotland games have been exclusively on Sky? Worse than that, we have to subsidise your poxy money league before we can watch our own league. You lot never had it so good - the Union dividend, eh?

Mate!
I did exactly the same with my lad!
He’s 7. Watched the WC semi vs Italy and went to Burnley away this season and he loves it.
He asked who Spurs were playing today and I told him we could watch England together because it was on TV and early enough for him.

He was a bit gutted, as was I.

That’s not good. Basically what happens when someone l buys rights behind a ppv wall, and then charges you the earth for it. Basically free to air being priced out, you can blame the inception of the PL for that.,the snowball that kept rolling

I love my country but hate international football. Game just seems so slow and the quality lacking. Guess that's the problem with the best league in the world on our doorstep. Saying that the only time I liked it was as a kid so shame your boy couldn't watch it.

Totally agree and I facking hate Sky, the robbing bar stewards.

International football should always be put before the disgusting money and bias driven PL.

Fe ck sky. They shouldn’t be allowed to own international football. It’s nothing but pure greed.

Especially friendlies ffs.

The cost of football to supporters needs to be heavily regulated and the government needs to step in to make sure of that.

From there the clubs/national teams can do what they like to secure extra funds but first and foremost the fans shouldn't be fleeced for all they're worth.
