    Foxtel is a disgrace

    There was only one game of football this weekend. Yet Foxtel chooses to do the replay for the Swans at 6.30am this morning and midnight tonight. They choose to have some 80s marathon running all day. Whilst that might be nice for some, you would think that last night's game would be replayed at a reasonable time.

    Very poor programming.

    I've called and made a complaint ... suggest anyone else who has Foxtel does the same.

    Yes I emailed them this morning.

    Wasn't very impressed. You would think they could have done a reply at a reasonable time.

      Agreed Bron. They should interupt this rubbish marathon and play our game at least twice during waking hours. Joke!

        Very Bloody Stupid....I like the idea of the 80's marathon but you'd think you would have the only game replayed at a decent time. Why not 9AM and 6PM?

              What about damn channel 10. New tonight sport - all about collingwood - wouldn't know the swans won until the last second. Time for me to write another letter. Even the promo from ch10 last night was all about collingwood and their game - not that it was sydney's big game and where we were playing.
              Robert walls makes me spew on his buttering up of Collingwood.
              Glad I was at the game and didn't hear him - can turn the sound down on the tele.
              Love those Swans

                    Leon wants to be called 'Magic'. I'm not aware that footballers actually chose their nicknames, but hey. He's Magic, apparently.

                    If he's lucky, Magic will let him have his autograph.

                      our replay is on at 830pm tuesday, which is normally 'game of the week' (funny that!)... i think they have scheduled the other programs in light of having it on at 830 tuesday

                        I emailed the Club and Fox as well as a phone call. We need to make more fuss about these things, a few voices don't get noticed, but a lot do.
