This season I've decided to not spend the $500 on sky sport now, I'm going to try a mixture of F1 tv ($15 per month), watching the Phoenix at either sky open or at a mates house or at a pinch the pub. For weekends (like this one) where I can't do any of it I'm going to buy a week pass ($29.99) or month pass ($49.99), depending on how many away games there are in the month, to sky sport now.

No pirating, but also a bit of hassle.

Sky putting up their prices from last season combined with the cost of living and job uncertainty is a killer combo.

Have to be honest. Really enjoyed my years where I went out to the pub for the Nix. Nice chill nights out, some of them!

And those days I’m fairly sure short term passes weren’t much of an option.
