Paid my £10 for streaming

Post by Bluecap »

A couple of observations.
The bloke who works with Dulcet in commentary, Matt something always takes the opposition side of things.
The bloke in the studio who presents it bloody awful best part was his summing up when his mike packed up.
Cant say much about game was watching Arsenal most of the time.
What a waste of a tenner.

Very poor game, you didn’t miss anything.

I actually think it's not bad value for a tenner, and light years better than when it first started.

The presenters aren't professionals, what are you expecting for £10 - Sky sports?

I think Matt is just a reality check for Daves views.

Ollie is alright, bit surprised he will often basically open the HT\FT analysis with 'well that was boring'. :D

The game was cack. You can't blame the streaming bods for that. If you want smooth, articulate & witty commentators, expect to pay a lot more. I have seen a fair number of very good games & you tend not to notice the presentation staff, which I like. I find some very professional TV commentators can be grating. Because of my heart failure, it would be torture for me to travel across London on a wet cold March evening. Then to sit in a freezing stadium for 2 hours watching that cack- I'd rather be racked. So LONG LIVE the streaming service and Matt Hiscock.

Matt is the only decent thing about the whole production.

Dave gets worse by the week.

"Spent a tenner and then watched another game instead. What poor value for money!"

“What are you expecting for a tenner - sky sports?”

I mean, while obviously there’s issues of scale, that’s a weird post considering you can watch two and sometimes three games on sky sports for a tenner.

Last Saturday the Wigan Co-commentator referred to us as Charlton Athletic for over an hour of the game.
Dave and Matt are fine by me and overall it’s a good service for £10

I think they are pretty good aside from the tall skinny bloke who appears as a guest and Jabo bless him.
