FFS! F1 to be on Sky Sports next year

[Tathan]

BBC and Sky to share F1 broadcast rights | Media | guardian.co.uk

Sky will have all the races, practices and qualies, BBC will have half the races...

**** Rupert Murdoch, ****ing old wrinkly ****faced evil ****stirring Nazi scumbag.

[Kev_G]

he is a ****

[BazW]

It's boring anyway....I'll be sticking with BTCC

[Tathan]

Have you not been watching it this year?? it's been awesome. Although BTCC is awesome too.

Sky Sports is about £25 extra a month. There's 20 races a year, 10 of which will be sky exclusive. £25 x 12 is £300, £300 divided by 10 is £30. So I'd have to pay £30 to watch each GP on Sky (cos I wouldn't watch anything else on Sky Sports).

What. The. ****.

[vxlgsi]

I just wont watch it

[RodOGW]

Wherever I've been working in the world I've managed to watch the Grand Prix - now I'm going to miss 50% of them even if I'm in my own sitting room.... thanks BBC you load of tossers and thanks Sky you load of tw@ts...

[Melv]

That's wank.

FFS, good mind to bin my basic sky package off in light of the recent Murdoch bad press. The bloke is a tosser just like the jumped up dwarf, Ecclestone

[Tathan]

Agree.

Pair of corrupt billionaire octagenerians - could get less out of touch?

Sky is getting binned here because the benefit over freeview + streaming is something I can put up with if it means not giving Murdoch any more money.

[Allvaux]

I'm more concerned about why they're showing F1 on a sports channel.

[MSG]

Hack into the bloody thing, just like he did people's phones!

[BlackBox]

I refuse to pay for Sky ..... I'm considering binning the TV altogether .... I mean, so much has gone over to SKY why bother with a TV at all. I rarely put it on anyway ....


BTW, in case anyone has forgotten, don't blame the BBC, the Government own that channel and they benefit from the sale of these programs ...

[Tathan]

The Government helping Sky/Rypert Murdoch? Surely not!

[BlackBox]

Where there's money involved ......!!

[Mike-vec]

So no Red Button practices, never mind, just will watch the BBC output then, never going to get sky sports as I hate football, but that is a completely different rant.

[Paul]

I watch fook all else on the BBC other than F1.

Well pissed of with this news.

[ordy]

just watch it on p2p, live streaming for nothing

[Tathan]

^ and have radio 5 live on for Crofty and Ant Davidson's commentary, WINRAR

[wayne451]

That's a load of crap. I was going to get Sky but if they are putting that sh*t on then it means less broadcasting time for good things like football, or even adverts...

For those of you that are gutted, watch this on repeat. It's far better...

[MSG]

That was ace!

[BlackIce]

Just paint a wall and watch it dry, its more entertaining

[TINTIN]

i'd sooner wall paper the inside of my fridge then pay for Sky sports. I have teh basic package which works fine for me as we dont watch much any way. If i'm honest its only really here for the kids channels and Crime and Investigation channels.

[Paul]

I have Sky Sports at home, but will now mean getting it at the unit.

[Allvaux]

Just paint a wall and watch it dry, its more entertaining

And also far more 'sporty' and far less likely to have it's 'fans' sitting in pubs drinking shandy whilst they twat on about some boring, overpaid tit almost overtaking another boring, overpaid tit.

[Frisco]

Better than watching some fag fall over and hold his leg because another fag ran past within 2 feet of him
