Logically, match fixing doesn’t work on the way today’s game played out.

Was the ref paid to play for a draw? City scored on 81 minutes. Why did the ref allow this late goal given the low chance of a Spurs equaliser? When Spurs did equalise it was a perfectly legitimate goal so the ‘corrupt’ ref got lucky and didn’t need to bend the rules to allow it. After that, the ref let the game go on for a couple of minutes after the allotted 5 minutes added time. Why would he do this if it risked a City winner?

Maybe the ref is just a wally and needs to be better.

The referee had a chance to directly influence the outcome of a match.

He made a call, then waited to see where the ball went - went to a player clean through, and proceeded to blow his whistle.

He (quite possibly) cost City the win. We can't have City winning the league 6 times out of 7 can we - with a certain worthless * title in the middle of them.

People were talking about Amazon, Disney and co. competing with Sky. Well, Amazon have lost all their games, with Sky strengthening their position.

To be fair, good on them, they post absolute lies from all their "sources" and just get away with it.

What exactly is the 3pm blackout?

What exactly is the 3pm blackout?

From decades ago. When telly was in its infancy, the then Div 1 clubs voted to never have 3pm sat games broadcast live, fearing it would affect attendances elsewhere.

So if Everton are playing away to a London club, how can you watch it?
Edit - legally.

Apparently amazon wasn't offered any games, sky practically run football now.

I would doubt that. Amazon would be able to get an injunction out. These things are usually open for bidding as long as they meet the bidding/service levels criteria.
