Dear Sirs

The programme has become a joke. EVERY programme has spent most of Its time discussing Manchester United. - their manager; their failures; their transfer targets. This is to the exclusion of the really interesting and successful clubs.

I can only assume you get funded by the amount of time spent discussing this one club.

They are now one of the mid table clubs. Why do you spend all your time discussing them & making them the headline feature.

Fans from all clubs are sick of it & you are losing them to other channels.

Change the record

Good Morning,

Thank you for your email.

I am sorry that you are unhappy with our coverage given to Manchester United.

As a football fan, you will know that the club are going through some challenging times just now and did not have a great start to the new season.

Sky Sports News - in particular - will always highlight the issues faced and we would do the same for any of the teams that make up the Premier League.

However, we always welcome the feedback from our viewers and again, Your comments have been logged.

Enjoy the season ahead on Sky Sports and many thanks again for your
email.

Thanks for your prompt reply. I agree the matter needs some coverage but this week it's been wall to wall and frankly totally repetitive. Really poor presentation as there's not much to say about them other than they have been poor for the last ten years compared with the real top PL clubs. But there seems to be an agenda at Sky that you have to say the words "Manchester United" every 5 minutes.

Their days have gone. Can't you move on? Ooops- it's on again (5 minutes went by without mentioning them but most of that was for adverts)

There have been amazing things going on at Spurs; Arsenal; Forest - not to mention Liverpool & Man City but they have to share the spare half hour when you don't mention the "other" team.

Afraid you cannot just excuse the coverage given to MU just because they're not doing well.

It's really a disgrace and you have 19 other PL fans who are noticeably SICK of Sky & as soon as they can get coverage of games from less biased organisations they will leave in droves.

Listen to Peter Drury commentaries & compare him with the dross from Martin Tyler who mentions MU as soon as he can

You really need to take this seriously

You haven't answered any of my points

Are you going to raise the issyr with the people who matter? Will anything be done or are you just "going through the PR motions".

Glad I have all this in writing. I'm sure many media outlets will be interested to see how you fob off your customers.

I'd really appreciate a thoughtful reply

My aim was not just to "share my views" with you but for Sky to consider them and do something about them. Do you ever take action when you receive such complaints or do the MUFC connections rule the channel!

Moyes and Antonio waxing lyrical at the weekend was perhaps the start of a new beginning. If not we should get tough and start hitting the naysayers with a ban from the ground unless they can reveal what exactly is their problem with us.

Fuck me that was a horrible blend of painful and infuriating. It's like you were conversing with a bot.

You can bet they’ll be taking more notice of fans of other clubs if they begin to cancel subscriptions or sky all together,my contract is up in December I’ll be on the blower to them 1st november to cancel..oh and well done for sticking at it with the emails,unfortunately all to no avail..
 
Just watched the ad on ITV for the prem league was a bit gob smacked that it started with us but I don't recall seeing the rags in there or have I got selective vision. On the other hand on BBC northwest we barely got a mention unlike rags and Everton who both had features,admitted the rags one was a bit humiliating though.

We have to remember that a shit rags team is terrible news for Sky, BBC etc, they will be fucking desperate for them to start signing top players so they can challenge for honours again. They will be shitting it that rag fans might start getting fucked off with the club and start to leave in droves, that's why we get bombarded with transfer story after transfer story about them, Ten Haag this Ten Haag that, Ronaldo this Ronaldo that.
They have to keep them sweet no matter how infuriating it is for everyone else

You’d have thought by now the media would have cottoned on to the fact that the shittier the rags are, the more money Premier league rights are being sold for and the viewing figures are increasing
 
Had another go at Sly Sports News last night.

Once again the first 15inutes was about Ten Haag, United transfers, and United in general, with the 2 Clowns spinning United transfer news.

And.

Might be me with my blue tinted specs on but seem to notice adverts on tv( mostly betting related) have the crowds wearing mostly blue these days.
