Pay per view

You can moan about pay per view, I will be donating like the guys from Newcastle, hope Sky get the hint.

Newcastle United fans donating to the Foodbank rather than paying Sky's £14.95 fee for the pay-per-view have now raised an incredible £2️⃣0️⃣,0️⃣0️⃣0️⃣!

Leeds and Burnley fans have already replicated the initiative, raising thousands themselves.

Apparently there were only 74 people who paid for Burnley vs West Brom

I live in Germany, so it was on Sky. So ok, not exactly free, but it didn't cost any extra on top of my subscription unlike in the uk.

ah right ok

Can't see this having legs for long over here...doesn't show Sky & BT in a good light when people are just donating the money elsewhere

Yeah at least over here for the PL games they're all in one place and don't need multiple subscriptions, though it's gone that way now with the CL games.

Agree entirely. PPV during the pandemic sucks big time and sets a worrying precedent.

So I take it those who disagree with the PPV charges will be voting with their feet (hands, actually) and refusing to pay the £14.99 for the Aston Villa game? 99p for audio on LUTV – bargain!
