[@swidr5626]

Football was always literally a working class sport but now it’s becoming something that billionaires are wiping their butts with. The only thing we can hope for at this point is that current system (at least in heavily overcharging people for watching games) will collapse and completely stop being sustainable. PL is trying to stop that from happening but in the stupidest way possible because locking poor people up won’t bring you the money they don’t have in. If they would charge reasonable amount and provide a decent service (and by that i literally just mean - give access to all the matches, nothing more) while maintaining the costs instead of letting them skyrocket like crazy, everything would be alright. But now it is literally a huge snowball getting too huge for its own good ready to disintegrate at any time

[@AdamSabir1]

[@CaptainZangoose]

If you can even get tickets to the stadium, in the first place

[@BadgerOff32]

@@CaptainZangoose Right? I'm a Brighton fan. Getting a ticket to one of their games is a right pain in the arse! You can't just turn up at the gate, on the day, like you used to be able to when I first started supporting them. There is no 'waking up on a Saturday and deciding to go to the match on a whim' anymore, it's got to planned out WEEKS in advance now! You have to register with their website first. Then you're not allowed to buy tickets to any of the bigger matches (like Man City, Arsenal etc) unless you've bought a ton of tickets to other matches over the last 2 or 3 years and built up the right to attend those 'high priority' matches. Then you have to buy the tickets for a specific seat, in a specific part of the stadium, weeks in advance, for way too much money, and more often than not, the best you're able buy a ticket for is a fairly meaningless League Cup game, on a Tuesday night, in a half empty stadium, watching basically a second string youth/reserve team playing against League 2 Doncaster or something. It's why I go to non-league games these days. It's far cheaper, and I can just 'turn up' on a whim.

Piracy is mostly a result of poor accessibility, whether it be pricing or the service you already pay for not showing the game you want to see. But throwing people in jail for 5 years is way easier than figuring out how to let people watch their programming i guess

[@talibong9518]

I'd say in this case it's a problem with exclusivity. When you're the only one broadcasting the game you can charge what you want. If broadcasting rights were open to all networks then there'd be some competition.

bro that's probably the worst interpretation of the quote you can make. "It's a service problem" means that the way how games are distributed to the consumer needs to improve, not the quality of the games. Valve solved the problem of videogame-piracy in the early 2000s by offering Steam as a service, which allowed its users an easy access to a wide selection of games. That's not the case in todays football broadcasting where you have smaller selections of games spread across different services.

They should make streaming services where you can pay to watch all of the games from your team at a reduced price and even offer cheap ppv for a really big game that doesn't involve one of your teams. Like imagine you're an Atletico Madrid fan and already pay £10-15/m exclusively for Atleti games, but wanna watch El Clasico. Drop like £3-5 for that one game. Most people wouldn't have an issue paying for a single game that they're anticipating. The service provider gets way more money than that game is typically valued at and people wouldn't feel cheated.

[@Solar-Blade]

People would be less likely to watch Premier League games on dodgy streams if they weren't: A) Split between 3 separate legal streaming services that people are expected to subscribe to and juggle if they don't want to pay for all 3 each month (which is most people.) B) Still using that blackout rule on Saturdays where the games aren't televised between 14:25 and 17:25. All this does is alienate non-local club supporters from watching their team.

[@iangriffiths6047]

why are us english people (the majority of a clubs fan base) being told that we can’t watch our team to support smaller clubs we most of the time don’t care about. if the football isn’t on during Saturday 3pm, i just do something else i never go and watch other football and i don’t think many people do either

[@MKYCmusic]

Issue also is even if you pay for the 3 services, which comes to around £120 a month, still not all games are covered, yet in the likes of Canada, Africa, Australia they pay the equivalent of £10 a month for EVERY SINGLE GAME.

The stupid thing is that when those two guys in London got banged up for rebroadcasting all the matches, the police found that the majority of the people subscribing to their illegal service also had Sky etc subscriptions anyway and were only watching games on that illegal service that were not being shown on normal TV. In other words, most of them would not have been subscribed to an illegal service if all of the games were being broadcasted legally. Moreover, the premise that 3pm KO's not being shown on TV to keep people going to matches is proven wrong when you see that the more games are being shown on TV, the more people are going to matches. Showing more games on TV is a win-win for football clubs, not only do they get TV revenue, but the broadcast acts as advertising for people to go to future matches. At this stage, there is no excuse for not broadcasting all matches in the UK. Quite frankly, they could all be shown for free without subscription on regular terrestrial TV on the back of advertising alone.

Ah, the other side of the argument, how refreshing. I think we all agree illegal streaming is wrong but if i can't actually buy the product from you, and I can get it elsewhere, it isn't a question of right and wrong, it is supply and demand. If the options are either watch our teams illegally or not at all most of us are happy to do the wrong thing. It is a core value of football to follow every move your club makes, and sky know this or else they wouldnt fill 2 months every summer with bullshit transfer rumour shows, so to ask fans to voluntarily not view 3pm kick offs is like asking a crack addict to refrain from taking a hit for a few days or you'll have him arrested, oh and don't forget they are also his crack dealer in this scenario and are happy to be profiting off his addiction.

Too quality video mate, thanks for raising awareness about this - most creators wouldn't have the balls to directly put down our authorities like that 👍

I used a VPN within a VPN b4 entering the knee website

The old saying remains true, If buying isnt owning that piracy isnt stealing

[@AvaMiller-o1x]

This collab is pure gold!

[@tangos.tv12]

I'm watching this on a smart fridge with an Angolan VPN😭

[@thewheezingdead]

I watched more Premier League and EFL when I lived in Japan than I do now living in the UK. Now this was 15 years back but it only cost me £3.50 a month there.

[@captaindelta43]

Piracy is A Necessary EVIL 😅😂. The companies should realise charging a house mortgage for 1 month of Premier league banter or worse Mc Donald not Uber eats Ligue 1 ....is bit of a overkill . So there it help . I know it's very bad and your data is just put there but so does Google and other site do with your data legally 😅😂

[@abdullahaanawaleh]

I unironically illegally stream Bristol City vs QPR lmao. It is getting harder to find QPR streams these days though

25 seconds behind with barely a glitch not so bad is it

[@LiftandCoa]

When i watch F1 ON THE PAID SKY APP im back 1 1/2 minutes (which is "surprisingly" the lenghts of the average advertising they send DIRECTLY before the warm up lap starts....) to live footage and watching it and chatting with people about it is an absolute pain. A friend just this weekend: "HAMILTON CRASHED, RED FLAG, LAP 3" At the same time me: *casually watches the end of lap 1 25 seconds behind is LITERALLY an upgrade compared to the 45 bucks a month "service" sky offers.

10:08 is such a genius move. Well played Niran

[@franklingoodwin]

VPN and Firestick settings. And no you won't get put in the jail for watching live football streams. You only get jailed for distribution. Anyone that tells your otherwise is flying or misinformed (and probably trying to sell you something like a VPN)

[@Dr.LingLangYT]

flying? my friend told me otherwise and he also has superpowers?

[@rebootcomputa]

The state of British broadcasting when it comes to the premier league is so bad you cant even watch games legally on the weekend, whoever thought of putting 4 games at the same time should be in prison.

[@rakor8914]

too loud why are u screaming lad - no good ears ring can´t listen 0:44 i´m out

[@jocklazer5526]

Turn your volume down

[@elvismawhinney2494]

Make a video about the KZbinrs that do “watch along” videos were they commentate on the game. Where are they watching the games from? When they aren’t on tv or even radio. They’re making a lot of money from that content. Blatantly getting away with it too

[@Ovie0513]

I hear the argument about 3pm kickoffs, but at the same time there's plenty of people who live in smaller towns that support a big EPL team, and go to their local team on a Saturday at 3pm. A fair few of them might stay home and watch Man United/Arsenal instead if the 3pm blackout was scrapped. There's advantages and disadvantages to it, Im not gonna pretend theres no flaw with the 3pm blackout but it has its merits

[@alaskanmalamute101]

You can watch every single game on a firestick yet if u pay £100 a month you can't..its insane that this is still a thing in 2024 football is still living in the dark ages of cable TV

[@danielmcgrath680]

Dodgy stream, stolen laptop, neighbours wifi. 😁

The fear of people not turning up if they can watch it on TV is rubbish. Over here in Australia, we have our own code of football (Australian Rules). 9 games a week, all of them broadcast & they still drew an average attendance of about 40-45k. People will still turn up to games because it’s a better atmosphere in the stadium.

[@calpatus1149]

money is king, and when companies become increasingly greedy, they do anything they can to squeeze out any penny from their customers. and when the people dont like it, they cant do anything about it. the centre cant hold.

[@luissosa320]

Thabks for shouting out Vzla! Viva la pirateria! ❤❤❤

[@kieransmith3621]

It’s stupid that we have to pay something like £35 a month to watch our own league but a la liga game will come on itv for free every few matchdays

[@Moneyless.In.Brazil]

Was waiting for the ending to be, "and now time to talk about the sponsor of this video.... surfshark"

[@Ryan1993uk]

3pm blackout is just so outdated and so anti consumer... this is 2024.. to not be allowed to watch games in the country the team is from.. and for it to all be more accessible and cheaper everywhere else is absurd, this has to change

[@mauriziorusso7741]

In Italy the situation is even crazier, between Sky and Dazn prices are all over the place.

[@lily61242424]

I'm stunned how expensive to watch games on TV in UK. My sports channel subscription fee only £2.8/month here in Taiwan. And I can watch every prem league and UCL/UEL games.

Greetings from Venezuela, the 3pm black out sounds incredibly stupid for what I understand about it

[@jaackaboytheiii1107]

its becoming like insurance now, no regulation on pricing, illegal if you dont pay, customer service never gives you the best deals unless you ask around for an hour…

[@Idahbhoy]

Hate the 3pm blackout
