Why? They are just as good/bad as Sky Sports and have pundits good and bad.

It's the content that's important, Arthur, not the channel it's on (unless you don't get it, of course!)

If Amazon go for Premiership rights in the UK, that will knock Sky off its perch! Football might become cheaper, too, despite the price tag for those rights going up.

I'm sorry but I'd have to massively disagree whilst I have no issues with BT Sports general coverage , picture quality etc I'm afraid some of its pundits are woeful.

I'd like to have BT Sport on my box in 4K as Sky Sports 4K has now spoilt me.

You've said many times on here before Den how poor some of BT's pundits are or have you forgot that.;)

I'm speaking purely in my personal opinion others will disagree , in my opinion Sky's premier league coverage is far more polished and proffesionly presented it's got even better with the arrival of Gary Neville again.

Steve Mcmanaman , Paul Scholes , Michael Owen , Robbie Savage and Owen Hargreaves are a few I've watched since launch that in my opinion are particularly poor.

David Jones doesn't quite cut it. He was ok for Saturdays. I wouldn't have mind seeing Jeff Stelling on Super Sunday and MNF duty. Poor guy lost his CL doughnut lol

Yes Gary Neville l think most of us knew would be back once he found out the management game is not a bed of roses he maybe thought it was.

Of BT Sport l like Glenn Hoddle , James Richardson who l think should be used far more and one or two others and of Sky Sports Jamie Redknapp , Gary Neville and Guillem Balague and a couple of others as well.

Well from what l hear there will be no one CL rights holder next time when it comes up for auction soon as my money is on ITV getting some rights again along with either Sky Sports or BT Sports.
