Did you lot see it? Got some conference bollocks on German Sky so flipping between both games. The Villa goal by Grealish the player who was judged offside was the closest I've seen yet they fucked about with their calibration tools for ages until the y could say he was a few mm's offside, it was really pathetic. 

Yep, I think that's the new worst goal disallowed by VAR. Absolute joke.

Grealish is really good, to be fair. Wonder who'll be signing him in the summer

 

Villa have to sell a few due to FPP, so I reckon Grealish will be their largest source of income. Cue rumours of him going to the Mancs soon.

The ridiculous thing is that they're using a single pixel line for one and a big thick line for the other, meaning the edge of the thick line is appearing further forward than the thin line, resulting in a false judgement. It has to be measured by lines as fine and precise for both, or it's null and void. The inequality of measurement lines is utterly stupid and unfair.

Loving this wall to wall coverage on BT today helped that I have proper bt and not dodgy streaming I suppose but it's just the tonic for New years day 

I think this is BT's response to Amazon having all the games on and I personally think Amazon have changed the game as it's going to force the likes of Sky and BT to follow the same route as they know amazon can blow them both out the water if they wanted to bid for Skys coverage rights when they come up again. 

 

Sky are no longer the big boys in the conversation.

Good. Sky have had the monopoly for far too long, I prefer BT over Sky all day long but Amazon has raised the bar with their coverage.

Unlike Sky and BT Amazon have a capability to broadcast the games worldwide in every country using their streaming service which is a massive advantage to have.

Think those Amazon games were only available in the UK. Certainly not an option in Germany which is a pisser being as Prime is fucking Prime and we all pay for it. Obviously down to PL rights and the want for money. Get all the games on Sky Germany anyway, but still a pisser.

Absolutely a couple of big hitters have entered the market I'm sure the shape of football coverage will change over the next few years, they know that more and more people are accessing football via various streaming sites and this could be the answer .

DAZN will probably try to get the rights back from SKY season after next and try to get into the Uk market as far as PL goes.

Not a ball kicked in anger in Moyes' new term at West Ham and they're already in the relegation zone, thanks to Villa's lead and probable win. They're lucky Bournemouth are in as bad a shape as they are, so whatever genius tactics Ginger Pubes can come up with today, is likely to have a positive effect and everyone can hail the return of the Moyesiah.
