Sky Sports News - Live interview post-match
The post-match questioning conduct of interviewer Rob Wotton conducting a interview with Republic of Ireland player Chloe Mustaki, was indeed a disgraceful act of bigotry against Ireland and it's history. It was apparent SSN were trying to formulate and bash a narrative against the Irish lady and her team. The post match Sky Sports News questioning was of poor standard and I would beg the question if this issue occured within the men's team, would he have enforced the same line of questioning.
Desired outcome: I would encourage Rob Wotton to receive education on the history of Irish songs, the meaning and the purpose behind them. It may shed some light for future mishaps or bursts of excitement. Up the Mná.
Sky Sports News
The interview conducted on the 12/10/22 with Republic of Ireland player Chloe Mustaki, the line of questions was completely out of order bombarding a player forcing her to apologize on live TV in regards to a moment of history that the interviewer clearly has no understanding off. It seemed like SSN were trying to create a narrative against the poor girl offering complete bigotry towards Ireland and its history. It was an embarrassment to Sky sports news/
Desired outcome: I want Rob Wotton to get "educated" himself before asking an international player to be educated live on TV, there has to be punishment and an apologu issued.
Sky Sports
Martin Tyler commentating on the Man City v Man Utd game.
Macnhester City fans were celebrating the 5th Goal with the 'poznan'. Martin Tyler said "it's not just the cheap seats getting involved.
This is a disgraceful example of discrimination against working class supporters.
Martin Tyler has the Luxury of not buying a ticket often sits in well located seats in the gantry or commentary box. It Is very insensitive to polarise supporters for not being able to afffrod 'expensive' seats.
Desired outcome: Private acknowledgement or Public Apology.
Golf commentator
I just purchased Kayo sports in Australia. Primarily to watch Euro golf competition. Unfortunately I’ve not been impressed by one of Sky’s golf commentators, Alison Whitaker.
She sometimes talks over Sky’s other excellent commentators. And talks too much and loudly, without adding quality. Maybe Ms Whitaker would be better suited elsewhere on Sky sports?
Alison Whittaker is still with us and destroying our experience of the Dubai DP Golf Championship. You have no excuse but to say it's the age of equality it it5 at the cost of your avid golf fans. She is so obviously a square peg in a round hole. She belongs in the women's game. I have said many times her terminology is way out. There is a vast difference the way men and women talk about the game. I have given examples in other comments such as, a few moments ago, 'he did not expect it to go so far on the down' what does that mean. I have listened to golf for 50yrs and I have never heard that or many other ludicrous comments she makes. I don't care what it costs you in terms of the feminist movement but please move her on. She would be so at home in the women's game and many golf fans agree with me as you are aware and I'm including female fans naturally. Do the right thing.
Please God NO ! Alison Whittaker just said she'll see us in Dubai next week. Please please don't ruin that special event with her stupid commentry. You have her as the lead commentator which as I said earlier is downgrading the boys who are far superior. Stop this equality nonsense and give us pure golf fans what we want which isn't a lot. There is no way Ms Whittaker would have got that job if she were a man. Right or Wrong ? The feminist movement doesn't care about our enjoyment being crushed just as long as a woman is pushed into a job where she, obviously Alison Whittaker, doesn't belong. Why are you doing this to us. Forget about equality and place the best people in the correct jobs. In this instance Ms Whittaker is a square peg in a round hole who is not on the same wavelength as the boys as I said in a previous comment. Come on The Dubai Classic is way too important for a poor commentator to be included when the only reason she is there is because she is female. Bite the bullet and move her on. Thank you.
I agree completely regarding Alison Whittaker's efforts at commentating on the men's golf. Before the Iberian peninsula tournaments Sky Sports had a ton of complaints, I contributed, and I thought she had moved on to the women's game where she belongs. Her comments are bland and she fails badly to get into the humour of the men's quips. Ms Whittaker sadly is just not on the same wavelength as her male counterparts. She is being given the lead commentator which in my opinion is a nasty thing to do to the boys. I also notice Jay Townsend is not at the Nedbank Challenge, could it be because he is in a class of his own and shows up Ms Whittaker as he did a few tournaments back. Please place Alison Whittaker as lead commentator of the women's game, and as I said before tell her it's a promotion.
The boys were having a bit of fun earlier commentating on the Nedbank Golf Challenge. There were a few guys following Tommy Fleetwood with long hair pieces and the quips from the guys were very humourous, 'they could form a band and be called Tommy & The Fleetwoods' and Alison Whittaker interjected with her comment 'they are the inherited ones'. What the hell was that about, she is just not on the same wavelength and it's getting tedious. Please place her as lead commentator on the women's game. I'm sure she will enjoy it. Give us avid golf followers a break from her boring non humourous comments.. just now she said 'its awkward on this diagonal fairway' man come on! Who but her would say these things. You have to do the right thing and take her off the men's game. I am having to write this while the Nedbank is on. I've lost my concentration.
Sky Sports coverage of Brentford v Arsenal match 18/09/22
While watching the coverage on the above match at a friend’s house earlier today we were absolutely disgusted that during the singing of ‘God Save The King ‘ not once did it show who the soloist was. Today was a momentous occasion for the singing of the national anthem & the amazing soloist who sang it so beautifully should most definitely have been given some air time. It was only afterwards the commentator said that the soloist was actually a member of the choir from Westminster Abbey, even more reason they should have been shown after their recent involvement in commemoration of the late Queen’s life. Sky should get their priorities right zoom in on the soloist rather than the line up of football players some of whom weren’t even singing the national anthem .
Desired outcome: I would like a response please
Rugby league semi final 16/09/2022
The whole comentry team must have a Leeds association by the way they
could not stop talking and applauding this Leeds team, they are supposed to be neutrals and just comment on the game not tell us about the struggles of the club history this season as a neutral watching this game I feel that Wigan should not of bothered turning up. I will probebly have to find my sporting interests elsewhere.
Desired outcome: Tell them to just comment on the game and watch a few Australian rugby league commentary games to get tips on how to do it
Sky sport new layout
2weeks ago I noticed I had to reload sky sport app and found the website got a new layout which is not user friendly, slow, buffer and usually you can go straight onto the latest highlights with their dates and after you watched a highlights the app will redirect you to where you have left off, but the new app takes you back to the start of the website and almost all the highlights buffer? Just need to know why the change and why is it more difficult to use the website, which is less informative and takes a long time to scroll
Desired outcome: Want the old layout back
Rugby League (Super League) Commentator Phil Clarke
Dear Sir / Madam
I am writing to complain about the commentator Phil Clarke on your Super league fixtures.
Commentators and pundits are supposed to be fair, impartial and unbiased.
However Phil Clarke can't ever be impartial or unbiased when Leeds Rhinos are involved he is constantly berating Leeds Rhinos and is always heavily against them in the way and manor with which he speaks.
Commentators should be unbiased and their judgement not clouded by their past affiliations with certain clubs.
Other Commentary teams are far better than yours when covering rugby matches.
Desired outcome: Phil Clarke to be removed from the commentary team.
Jphn WIlkin - Sky Sports - Rugby League
On Wednesday 24/08/2022 during the Leeds v Huddersfield game John WIlkin was applauding and agreeing with the actions of a player who cheated resulting in an opposing player being sin binned To enthuse about a player being sin binned because of a cheating player is total unacceptable and Wilkin should not be commentating in such a manner. This isn't the first time he has made inappropriate comments. It is unprofessional and unfair on the player concerned and gives the wrong impression about the game. Definitely not a role model for young players. The other commentators disagreed with WIlkin.
Desired outcome: Wilkin is stood down from commentating and issues an apology
Sky Sport Tennis
Hallo Sky Sport Tennis
Seminfinal repeats Cincinatti Masters on 21 August
today Tsisipas-Medvedev Semifinal was shown FOUR times. The word semifinal means there are TWO semifinals before the final, not one.You have managed to show 10 mins of the spectacular Coric-Norrie game, the second semifinal. Unbeliavable. Please think on your customers. Thanks.
Desired outcome: It cannot be acceptable that one semifinal is shown four times and the other one not even once. This is a joke.
Sky sports/football show
Why dont you rename sky sports and the football show MUTV ?
There seems to be a obsession with Man utd, I am convinced its editor/producer is a Man utd fan.
In a 2 hour show on Sunday 45 mins plus were dedicated to Man utd [a team that finished 6th], 20 mins of a sermon on why players should still take the knee. And about 2 mins on the champions and the hottest player in the world. [I'm not a Man city fan, Sunderland for my sins]
Sky have gone big on equality [like the England team], yet never mention Qatar, where there is real inequality [like the England team]
Seems like its ok to fight for equality as long as it does not effect them.
It stinks to the high heaven.
Desired outcome: Change, make it relevent.
Sky sports football commentator Martin tyler
This man has been your main sky sports football commentator , he has constantly been bias towards Liverpool football club which is well documented
His latest comments on BBC radio 4 about the relationship between football hooliganism and the Hillsboro disaster is outrageous and he should be made to account for his comments which insult the 97 bereaved families the families who had to deal with the injury and mental trauma of that day and the city of Liverpool who still to this day deals with the injustice his comments on put fuel on the fire to suggest holliganism was the cause of 97 deaths when in truth they were unlawfully killed
He needs to be dismissed he is well past his sell by date and fresh commentary brought to the table
A very angry Liverpool resident
Desired outcome: Dismissal of Martin tyler
Martin Tyler
Martin Tyler’s apology means absolutely nothing to any LFC supporter or the people of Liverpool! This man should never be allowed to commentate on PL football again! It’s about time he retired. His comment was despicable!
EVERYONE was exonerated of all blame but still, we must listen to this type of shameful dross on a daily basis! Though coming from someone employed by Sky tv is even worse. People died! Families are still suffering; survivors are still in therapy now 33 years on. He should be fired immediately, if he isn’t, it will be a very unfriendly welcoming next time he comes to Anfield to pedal his bias venom! There is no place in sports programmes for this antiquated vile attitude. Do the right thing Tyler and just GO!
Desired outcome: He needs to retire!
Complaint on F1 commentators
This complaint is not about the people themselves or their knowledge of the sport, but more on the commentators voice.
I have been a F1 race fan for over 30+ years and love and respect the sport. I am finding it hard to enjoy the sport with these two particular commentators, Karun Chandhok and Paul di Resta.
There is no issue with accents, but their voices are so nasal it is extremely disturbing and annoying.
I have tried to watch with no voice. No fun! I have tried recording and skipping as much of the commentating as possible with out missing too much of the race, which is hard to do.
Desired outcome: If they can commentate before or after the race instead of during for both qualifying and the race.
In regards to my complaint. I would like to sincerely apologize to the 2 commentators mentioned in my post as they do provide the details of the race .
I temporary lost respect for the sport and the people involved when I decided to complain.
cricket broadcast england v south africa 19 july 2022
I was watching the 50 over match between England and South Africa today 19 July 2022.
Can Sky Sports please let me know why Eoin Morgan was interviewing Moeen Ali and Abdur Rashid on religious grounds, asking them about the Hajj.
What has religion got to do with cricket. No religion should be advertised by sports channels.
So please stop empathising with certain religions on national air broadcast.
I am paying to watch cricket(sports) and not religious thoughts of players and their religious journeys.
I believe the director and Eoin Morgan should be severely reprimanded, and Sky in all forms of broadcast REFRAIN from such behaviour in future.
Never heard such nonsense on National broadcast as i have heard today during the match interval.
Please STOP now
A weekly advice that I will be charge $4,99/week
Hi! Every week, I am receiving this message from Sky Sports:
« Your access to Sky Sports at http://sportsalerts.club has been renewed until 07/24 for $4.99/week (tax exc). To cancel, text STOP SKYSP to 5415 for free. Help? [protected]@sptwo.com ».
I have texted STOP SKYSP to cancel but it does not work. I keep receiving their note.
Up to this date, I did not find any charge to my credit cards, but…
Could you let me know what it is all about? Is it coming from Sky Sports or it is someone who tries to hook my account?
Paul Maginly
He is spoiling the golf by talking too long without taking a breath.
Every one else is great . But we are afraid we have to turn the sound off when he is speaking .
Laura Davis , Nick Faldo etc are all so good at giving information in small doses.
His tone of voice is to shrill and just seems to think he knows everything .
Just ask him to talk less. He can be very irritating.
Desired outcome: Please ask him to talk less.
Sky coverage (cameras, technology etc) excellent, but totally spoiled by the commentators’ pre-occupation with McIlroy, Dougherty and McGinley in particular. This fetish has been going on for some time, almost to the point where one could suspect there are
some backhanders in play. It would be interesting to get Sky Execs’ view on this. McIlroy came 3rd yesterday, not even second. Sky totally ignored Cameron Young’s stellar performance. The Times headline this morning had the same problem; McIlroy lost, not that Cam Smith won.
I could'nt agree more, if its not Mcllroy its Tiger.
I also can't stand mcginlay . I switch off when he's commentating. I get the impression he wants to be Mr know all and wants everyone to know it. Bring back Sam torrence.
St Helens v Huddersfield 15/7/2022
Hello - I am a Huddersfield fan and after getting a proper kicking by Saints tonight I was really frustrated to see that fake Yorkshire [censored] Jon Wells giving me the finger after the game…. You could see how embarrassed he was giving the finger to us lloyal Yorkists and after his 2016 “penis on the notepad” incident I think he needs to be shown the error of his ways. Dorris my little Yorkshire puddin who I love dearly is proper unhappy - why does sky employ such fake Yorkshire [censored]
Desired outcome: Naked wrestling with Martin Offiah pre Grand Final
Sky golf commentator, day 2 of the open
The commentator referred to Zalatoris as being as thin as the flag pole! This is an absolutely disgraceful comment. I have a son who is built exactly the same and cannot put weight on which distresses him daily! He watches golf On tv and was absolutely outraged at the comment!
Would the commentator comment on Shane Lowry being as wide as the fairway? No I don’t think so. He needs to learn to think of others and not comment on peoples weight/size etc
It happened around 7.30pm on 15/7/2022
Desired outcome: He needs to make a public apology
Golf comments from alison Whittaker
