Re: Football First / Match Choice on NTL

Well in my opinion it is unfair, for example tomorrow night, im fortunate as i support a popular team! (M.U.F.C.) however i can't get to choose the other 7 games on sky sports if i supported one of those teams despite paying Sky the same amount of money.

But anyway, we're gonna get into this topic again, and we all don't want that!

Re: Football First / Match Choice on NTL

Basically then to explain for ya there are two types of people in this situation :

1) People who are pragmatic, and understand the situation....ntl: is not given the techonology by Sky and therefore are unable to give us interactive (despite the fact sky charge the same price for less content (e.g - tonights champions league....we had the one game, and sky digital viewers for the same price had a choice of 8)

and 2) Those who believe that it's ntl:'s fault, people like these generally look past anything ntl: do thats good just to blame ntl: of something thats out of their control.

Hope this helps

Oh, and the comment was really aimed at SKY who show the same match highlights continuously (on SS1) throughout the Match Choice interactive period, which I think is very monopolistic in attitude and basically unnecessary.

And I like the way you always add a colon to ntl:
