Sky will pick the angle which will attract the most viewers. And like it or not, Leeds and Bielsa are quite popular at the moment with neutrals and fans from around the world. At the end of the day who the hell cares. We’ll go about our business quietly thank you very much. Agree with this. I watched the match back when I got home. Didn't think it was as bad as some said and I quite like Keith Andrews. I think he is usually pretty fair. I'm happy for them to put all the pressure on Leeds. They're expected to go up. Nobody expects it of us. We were predicted to finish bottom of the league in August. I'm quite happy for us to go under the radar. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SiJ Posted October 26, 2019 Share Posted October 26, 2019 Care isn't quite the right word...more of a whinge. Tbf, they do it in the Prem all the time, so why be any different in the Championship? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vulva Posted October 26, 2019 Share Posted October 26, 2019 Sky do a great job of covering football, don’t get all the fuss. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The standard of their coverage isn't really matched by anyone. Just find certain aspects a bit nauseating, but hey, it's entertainment at the end of the day.

HIGHERSTATE Posted October 26, 2019 Share Posted October 26, 2019 I got through the whole day not seeing any sky coverage. Totally enjoyed watching the match live with my eyes. And thought we pretty much dominated much of that second half and perhaps should have won. Leeds had a few forays forward and thats about it. They did nothing for large chunks of that match and so did their fans. Thought they were disappointing and looked like they came for a draw at times. Sky don't own football..Opinions eh!

Owls-Fan Posted October 26, 2019 Share Posted October 26, 2019 I criticised Higgenbottom after the first half with his Leeds love fest but he improved in the second, maybe realising that we were better than he expected. As we were the better team so the logic that Leeds were amazing must have made his brain combust Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest The Horse Posted October 27, 2019 Share Posted October 27, 2019 It's whoever has the pull for easy views. At the moment it's Bielsa and the Bucket. A few years ago, it was almost embarrassing how far they stuck their tongue up Carlos' ass due to his shiny suits and charm. There's no bias, just a need to sell the games with whatever's going to pull in the majority of viewers. The TV equivalent of a red top headline.

The love in for Clueless Carlos was a joke. The more shiite he spoke the more they licked his balls. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nero Posted October 27, 2019 Share Posted October 27, 2019 Depends on your expectations of Sky really. They are a commercial company and Leeds make them more money than anyone else in the championship. If you are expecting equality you are going to be disappointed.

Binky Griptite Posted October 27, 2019 Share Posted October 27, 2019 I also enjoyed the post game where they asked Jermaine Beckford if Nketiah has proven he's about more than just scoring goals. Beckford: "I think that will have been Nketiahs main aim for today..." What...? Over scoring a hat-trick to secure victory...? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
