I had a call from Sky 2 hours a go asking if I would like to re-contract. I don't think he will be ringing again, I kept him on the phone for over an Hour. He clearly wanted to go home. Why did I do this? He asked if I like sports and whats my Team? I said PNE, he laughed and said they have over 90 Premier league games to show. Anyway he hung up/Gave up after I had a rant about the bullshit the commentators come out with and said that everytime the Sky Camera turn up at Preston Game, PNE play Shit. I said take a hint. The line went dead. 9/10 for trying. But he failed to tell me about the 70 times I can see the Jolly Boys outing on Gold over the life time of the contract. Would of sealed the deal. 😂

He probably just thought you were a nob.

I’ve always found them perfectly reasonable to negotiate with. Bit of bartering and you usually walk away with a 50% discount minimum (if you push) if not more.

Sky have done so much for football in this country, I’m sure they appreciate your support.

They won’t be getting a penny from me.

With Disney and Netflix thrown in, they I saved £13, Minus that £38, So I am paying £25 for the Full HD with Sports. I am happy with that, But like they say I'm Thick and a Nob, yet I'm the one with a great Sky deal because the Guy took the piss because I support North End. I am sure they happy to pay a higher price than a thicko. I think it's worked out very well. 😀
 
Eh? The first goal he just got out jumped at the back post because he was trying to win a free kick. Nothing to do with one on one defending.

He has a habit of doing that, maybe cos of a lack of height but if he actually jumped he’d stand a chance of winning the ball.

Nit sure why you don’t regard that situation as one-on-one defending ?

You are right, he chose not to jump.

It proves my point mate to be honest. If a Defender is trying to win a free kick in that kind of position (8 yards out) because he thinks that a better bet than actually challenging for the ball in the air - that’s not good defending.

That’s a one-on-one Situation just as much as facing a winger on the wing who has the ball at his feet - and it’s probably a more critical situation to be good in.
