Sky TV coverage

I have to say the quality of broadcast is getting worse watching SL on Sky Sports. The Thursday night opener had pixelated graphics throughout and don’t get me started on Sky Sports +!!! 

Still only able to watch ‘live’ and not record, sound issues, picture goes off and I’d have had a better experience watching on an old dial up modem than the quality the Catalan game showed. 

I paused the Hull/Bulls game last night to give my son a lift out - came back around half hour later and pressed play - it immediately went to the ‘live’ game and spoiled the score. WTF? 

Penny pinching. You’d never see this for the EFL championship. 

Poor all round really.

Yes I agree, it’s terrible coverage, and 5/7 matches this week were on the red button. 
What is even more stupid was that on Sky Mix last night,  at the same time as the 2 live matches were on the red button, they were showing a repeat of Fridays warrington match followed by a repeat of a HKR documentary.

They did the same thing quite a few times last season, I emailed them telling them how stupid it was and got a reply, saying they would pass my comments on to the person in charge. In other words nothing would happen.

I don’t know if it’s true, but I read last year, that they would be introducing new technology soon, were you could record programmes on the red button. Hope so.
