So it's a 70 odd percent increase on the current ridiculous fees.

Anyone happy to pay an extra 70% for their Sky Sports subscription?

Stan Collymore @StanCollymore
And hands up if you think £5bn will go someway to subsidising the paying fan or more grassroots?

A disgusting amount of money.

Geoff Shreeves @GeoffShreeves
@StanCollymore Did you turn down a wage rise as a player? Say "No, give it to grass roots?" Thought so.

Stan Collymore @StanCollymore
I turned down more £ to stay at NFFC when I joined LFC @GeoffShreeves , and have sponsored 8 local teams in 20 years. **** you very much.

Geoff Shreeves @GeoffShreeves
@StanCollymore Ah **** off you cunt.

[DannyMan2006]

I wish Geoff had said that last bit, lol.

I generally like Collymore these days tbh, but would've been funny

[Paddy]

Shreeves and Collymore are a pair of tools.

Funny if everyone left Sky now and they get shafted with the £4bn and no subscribers.

I thought some of the other bidders would have muscled in and I also thought BT were going to blow Sky out of the water this time, something to do with the Broadband turf war?

[ChesterDave]

I can't understand why people expose themselves as small minded bigots with their racial abuse of Collymore when they can so easily call him a ****ing nob without shaming themself.
