Fans fuming as Sky Sports Football technical glitch sees screens across the country go black during EFL… – The Sun

EFL fans were left fuming as Sky Sports suffered a glitch that saw TV screens go black.
The broadcaster had Leyton Orient vs Stevenage before Bolton vs Derby on its schedule for this afternoon's League One action.
But as they attempted to show a split screen with footage from both stadiums, all that could be seen were large black rectangles with no camera feeds.
Supporters took to Twitter to voice their anger at cut-out.
One furious user blasted: "Absolute farce @SkySports and you wonder why people don’t stay with you.
"Standard s***e service and coverage of the Football League."
Another raged: "What's happening with Sky Sports lately? Absolute s***e.
"Picture quality is terrible. Constant problems with sound and picture.
"Build-up to games are boring and looks like they couldn't care. 99 per cent of the time won't show a game below the Championship."
A third posted the TV failure and added: "Paid £18 a month for this?"

And a final user complained: "F***ing useless as always I see."
Sky hold the TV rights for the EFL and put all their focus on the lower divisions because Amazon Prime are showing all ten Premier League matches for this gameweek.
The channel recently tried to shake up their coverage with an access-all-areas day at Wycombe as they hosted Portsmouth.
That included cameras in the dressing rooms, insight into the captains' chat with the referee and even an interview in a bed.
However, as revealed by SunSport, the reality is Sky Sports' viewing figures are falling and they are considering offering less money for fewer games when it comes to negotiating their new contract for 2024 onwards.
