However, I think Sky do need to review the HD charge on VM. I know it's a rival provider but it's the difference between the Sky price and the VM price to have the Sports Collection in HD. At the end of the day, most of the money we pay for Sky Sports goes to Sky so they're better off with non-Sky customers taking them with another provider than not at all.

However, a match ticket for the mighty Blades in League 1 is about £25 so I'd hate to think how much they are at Premiership teams. So I guess if you look at a month's subs for Sky Sports is the equivalent of 1 or 2 match tickets so I guess for the amount of games you get, it's not bad value in that sense!
Match tickets for most Premier League clubs has become astronomical as they can be anything from £40 upwards generally so yes in terms of value and the matches you get it is definitely much better value in that regard.
