My impression is that they pay a fee for A-League coverage that includes all matches, and all that is happening here is they are choosing not to show them.
 
That's what I thought, although pretty sure that information came from here
 
Perhaps if anyone from Sky was prepared to communicate PROPERLY then we'd find out these things.
 
Alas, their behaviour seems similar to sticking their fingers in their ears and shouting LALALALALALALALALALALALAAAAAAAAAA
 
Unfortunately Steve-O, I think "head", "Hammer" & "hit" all come into play with your comment. HN is probably quite correct with his comment and their reaction would equal yours.

Come on more people need to sign.
 
When should I try sending it? 200? More?
 
I think I will send it every week until I hear something.

200?  Half of NZ households have a sky subscription, it's going to need a bit more than that.  I strongly suggest that individuals keep writing emails to sky, continue to raise the issue, and most importantly watch or record the games

Yes. I hope that all 169 signatures on here had their decoders on for the game tonight or you're wasting your time.

Time to bump this up after this weekend's failures by Sky.
 
I should also mention I have not received any reply whatsoever to my very long and detailed e-mail that I sent them last week.

I put this suggestion on the other sjk thread - but take the petition to todays game, if we got 1000 signatures - that would be iimpresive.

Ok, so should I send it now?
 
I was thinking of an e-mail which included a link to the petition as it's main focus, along with links to the other stories which have appeared on the subject and the existence of the Facebook group etc.
 
Anyone got an actual e-mail address? Other than the contacts form that is.

Yeah but it's a petition started by one person with limited reach...
 
News stories get based on votes by samples of less than 200!

Maybe get people at Four Kings to sign  it as well on Sunday. 200 is not enough. Also check the petition to make sure the name are legit. Sometimes you get people signing it as Tiger Woods or Kaka etc... as a joke and you lose a lot of credibility.

Also be suspicious if there are any Micky Mouse's or Elvis Pressley's.

Problem is that it's an online petition!
 
As far as I can tell the names are all legit - there are a small number of 'anonymous' who obviously haven't put their names down but I don't think anyone has been piss-taking.
 
Can you get the Phoenix squad to sign it, as well as yourself and Terry S?

What to do is draft up something quickly and get people to sign it at the bencher. Then insert the names yourself.. Just make sure people are aware of what they are signing..

Not a problem is there a written petition they can all sign. Don't think they will go online to do it.

If you pass me their e-mail addresses I will e-mail them all
 
I joke.
 
There is no written petition at this time, although ScottyBhoy's idea above could be a goer.
 
I don't normally go to the Backbencher I must admit but if anyone was willing to help out and sort something out for before the next game and then pass the names onto me so I could add them to the online one, then that might work?
 
Maybe I could post something to you that could be signed, and sent back to me and I will add their names to the online version? Although you could say the problem with that is that I could just go and add their names myself right now!

The anonymous are ones that have chosen not to have their name visible to the public. Apparently they can be handed over if need be. says that on the website.
