## Sky Sports Reviews in United Kingdom

### ***-- "Preferences are ignored"
What is the purpose of asking users to select the sports they’re interested if you’re just going to ignore their preferences and populate the homepage with 90% football (literally 90%) despite me not having selected football?
Aside from this issue the app works well. I just really wish there was a way to escape the wall to wall football coverage.
-- $2 87, 2024-12-28

### *---- "Frustrating!"
I opened the app, was told to log in.  Did that using my Virgin Media credentials.  Tried to watch Premier League football.  Was told to open the app.  Opened the app. Again. Logged in again.  Endless loop.  Can’t watch the match.  Sometimes I get a screen asking me to create a complimentary account.  But I’ve already got one. I don’t want another one and I’m certainly not going to use a credit card to authenticate an account on a page that seems to be called funweb.com.  Are you kidding?  I’m completely wasting my money on Sky Sports.
-- Grunter90, 2024-12-22

### **--- "ADS!!!"
Great app but the 30 second ads before nearly every video is very annoying! If it wasn't for that I'd be giving this app 5 stars but instead I'm giving it 2!
-- Kristof2010, 2024-12-22

### *---- "Cheeky bstards"
Putting ads on their app about white men abusing women and a black man stepping in to stop it. Wow cheeky bstards, more like the other way around!!
-- Thetruth42424, 2024-12-18

### *---- "Too much negativity and drama."
I just want to see football score
-- Leonpheon, 2024-12-12

### ***-- "Thumbnails not loading"
When opening the app, various thumbnails on the page do not load and has a blank image. Please fix this. Also need notifications about my favourite team, never get any and there is also no notification sounds!
-- gpwljw, 2024-12-11

### **--- "Adverts!!"
45 seconds of adverts to watch a 17 second clip. 

Then the next clip I want to watch - another 45 seconds of adverts!! (And so on)

Maybe change the adverts to every 5 clips?? Or make the advert length proportionate to the clip length?

I don’t even bother to watch the clips anymore as the adverts are too invasive. Which is a shame.
-- SupermanStanUK, 2024-12-09

### *---- "Don’t use unless you want Sky to track your usage"
Every time I open an article I have a pop up wanting me to allow all cookies to get targeted adds. I click essential cookies only and read the article. I open the next article to read and get the same pop up. This happens every single time I open the app and for every single article I open. It is so invasive the app has become unusable.
-- dickie dosh, 2024-12-08

### *---- "Nope"
Still asking me for cookies every article
-- leetut, 2024-12-05

### *---- "Cookies"
Now requests to constantly consent to cookies. Why?
-- jonesy1206, 2024-12-02

### **--- "Great for know what games are happening when, team sheets and scores, terrible for clickbait videos"
An unbelievable amount of clickbait 30 second videos behind an ad wall longer than the video itself. It’s shameless. Getting info on games, teams and scores works as intended and the highlights of football matches are good.
-- no, i dont think i will, 2024-12-02

### *---- "Constant cookie requests"
Continuously asks you to accept cookies every time you open the app
-- mscuk, 2024-11-30

### *---- "No notification sound"
Where has the notification sound gone from this app?
-- Heetunma, 2024-11-29

### *---- "Did you know there are 20 teams in the EPL? Sky don’t."
A great app, if you follow one of the septic six. The constant articles & updates about Manchester Utd, Liverpool & arsenal, even when there’s nothing relevant to say, is beyond boring. You’d struggle to find any report on a match that doesn’t involve one of them. It’s been deleted until they realise there are in fact 20 teams in the Premier League, and it’s not just confined to their lords & masters.
-- Fatbagman, 2024-11-28

### *---- "Painful"
Non stop cookie tracking requests
-- Jibber45, 2024-11-27

### **--- "Football tables"
Since not putting the names of teams in the tables . How do you know who is who . Best to delete app and find a better one
-- Vogy31, 2024-11-26

### *---- "Asks every time"
If I accept cookies. So i open the app and every page asks. Stupid and bad
-- windsorbeerman, 2024-11-25

### **--- "Other European league tables"
Since I upgraded to this version I can’t seem to access any of the other European top league tables. Have I missed anything? If so where can I find them?
-- Captain_Real83, 2024-11-24

### **--- "Just full of ads"
Used to be a time when sky sports was about sports.
Now it champions everything that has nothing to do with sport.
It’s clogged full of adverts and pop ups.
Every time you click a story you have to go through the hassle of accepting or deny your data being criminally used.
Sky is losing customers because of its flooding of homosexuality in sport.
It’s presenters are trash now and racist towards white people, even through they live in a white country.
My advice would be don’t buy sky sports.
Its massively over priced and you can get it all on a doctored fire stick for the price of one months sky.
-- cheeky soso, 2024-11-24

### **--- "It has gradually become like 14 year old’s instagram"
No disrespect to 14 year olds but I used to enjoy flicking though it in the morning, read relevant stories, check the newspaper headlines and keep in the loop with fixtures and although they have improved the fixtures section where you can see further in the future, the news part of it has become like a content creator’s instagram page where it’s full of “funniest moments in…” and “watch how X reacts to Y saying Z!!😂😂” 
Go away with all of that nonsense please.
