    This has all been predicted for at least 2 years on this thread. Thank goodness for Sky there are not that many shorting options available in NZ.

    CEO has done nothing except for try to secure their monopolistic position by trying to merge with a phone company.

    Sky Basic Package - Complete Rip Off yet most profitable part of the business (see the problem?)
    Sky Sports - the jewel in the crown - until it is not
    Fan Pass - was too successful so they took it away
    Neon - is more expensive than Netflix and unstable.

    Is it too late for a fresh forward thinking CEO to take the reigns?

    It's going to be great when Sky go bust and everything will be free.

    OK, the Sky box will have gone and I'll have to get the old VHS recorder out of the garage, but that's no problem.

    And we'll get terrific coverage of all sporting events on free to air just like when ITV took over the soccer in the UK. It was great...
    Oh, just a minute, no it wasn't it was absolute shi*te. Mmmm?

    Don't hold but happy with my sky box and especially Premier League coverage on BeIn sports.

    Just curious as to why everyone is saying Fan Pass was taken away.

    I have never paid for TV before but I really wanted to watch the McGregor/Mayweather fight so I got a 1 mth FanPass and coughed up for PPV.

    Worked fine
    For clarity, nothing I say is advice....

    I think they mean the daily and weekly fan pass you could get but no longer. Plus gone is the cheaper monthly one.

    Sky now just 7 million away from dropping below 1 Billion Market Cap. $2.59. Shareholders have really lost confidence in the last 6 months
