The numbers stack up for him because 9 times out of 10 the pub is rammed. Understand that the price Sky come up with is largely based on capacity, bigger the boozer, the more they charge.

Whilst you won't ever get the same feelings as being in a real stadium watching a live game it wasn't that difficult to see the intensity of the game on the TV. What a great gesture from you to give up Sky TV and donate that money to the NHS. Fair play. 20 minutes ago, Mtimmy11 said: If giving up my free time to work for the st John's ambulance or borrowing 80,000pound to try and get my daughter though medical school,well yes I think I am doing my bit Touché!

My local club did have Sky Sports but it was discontinued as the previous steward said it didnt generate enough custom to make it worth while. Still has BT sport tho. I might pop down later for a pint and ask how much BT sport costs them. Having both Sky and BT sport at home I rarely watch live TV football anywhere else.

Always used to be, the local I used to use many moons ago it was calculated on the whole capacity of the building - even though 2/3rds of it would never have been in use for the football (2 function rooms) and they only wanted it in the main bar. They never had it put in due to this. Maybe if Sky charged less they would actually earn a bit more, as more pubs may pay less for it? In turn more people would watch it, and in turn maybe more people would then get it at home as well? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Early last year Michael McIndoe posted on here after the wheels came off. He commented about the difference between Man City and us, saying that while we both ( at the time) played a high temp pressing game, Man City could not only afford to buy players with the best technical ability they could also afford the players with the best physical fitness and stamina. They also have a squad with players of that degree of ability, fitness and stamina. On that basis it's not just us not perhaps having players with the technical ability to carry it off, but not enough might have the physical fitness and stamina to do so.

MM wasn’t saying anything that most of us didn’t already appreciate. To play like Man City or Liverpool the crucial elements are players with the technical ability and the fitness/stamina to implement it and of course a Head Coach dictating that style. Im sure that all of Citys first team squad are pretty damn fit already but lack the technical abilities of the top PL players. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course the better players will be better at it but I also think any players can be taught to do it. The difference is fitness and Stamina. A championship player is just not able to play a pressing game 46+ times a season. I think Liverpool's pressing system will be their downfall come the later stages of the season. I think they will burn out. Liverpool hunt in packs, they hound and harass you, once they retrieve the ball they then hit you on the counter with their electric pace. Man City however play a slower tempo, they press the space, not the player, they retain possession. Liverpool will burn out before Man City imo as Man City players haven't spent the whole season hunting players down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Virtually any team can play at a high tempo. How starts with its Leadership who define the teams behaviour and its principles via their positive influence - Their coaching. Unless you believe its accidental. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Without definition its a pretty vague terminology. Kids football teams can play back to front with high tempo or Bournemouth or Cardiff or anybody. High tempo can be short passing, long, direct, vertical its simply quicker. Any team using intense integrated training will be able to adapt to play quicker.
