Re: Finally given up on Sky (commentary) : Sat Feb 17, 2018 9:10 am
“The” is starting to filter from Eddie to everyone else now. Warrington are not called that anymore according to Sky they are called “The Warrington club”... “The Widnes club”... “The Catalans”... “The Saints”... “The Wigan club”... The whole commentary team were at it last night.The names of the players will be next; “here’s The Ben Currie, he passes to The Stefan Ratchford, he runs around The Widnes club’s players and scores a The Try!”
I wouldn’t mind but our actual nickname “The Wire” is NEVER used! The only club in SL with a name started with “The...” which is on the club badge and they don’t call is that. But call everything and everyone else “The...”
The only good but of insightful and intelligent talk is with Carney and Wells (sorry, “The Carney” and “The Wells”) and last night we didn’t get even a snippet of either pre or post-game!
The Sky don’t give a poop about Super League!
I wouldn’t be surprised to see, when this current deal is up, all SL games on Premier Sports and Sky having three NRL games on a weekend with no SL other than All The Tries for 30minutes once a week.
