craigkillie Posted October 11, 2021 Share Posted October 11, 2021 S4C are paying for Welsh language coverage which is suspect is not anywhere near the sort of money that Sky are chucking around. Sky still show Wales games in English. I suspect the fact that Welsh is an official language of the UK and Gaelic isn't means that BBC Alba couldn't do the same. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you realise that a significant proportion of the population cannot afford to have luxuries such as Sky tv ( with sport what is per month....around £50 so £600 per year) If Sky were to say increase fees to £100 per month would your attitude be the same? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Old man yells at cloud with a hint of Scottish cringe mixed in. We get a shockingly poor service from BBC and Sky for our game in comparison to England, while having to pay the exact same fees Kinda ironic that you’re telling others to stop moaning when you’re moaning about not wanting any change 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
