In the spirit of VPN madness, it's good to know the authorities are finally going to do something about illegal streaming, an issue of probably no interest to the men and women of RoM. www.theguardian.com/football/2017/mar/29/premier-league-illegal-streaming-tv-audiences

Every time they think of an initiative to stamp out illegal streaming it fails. They always underestimate the guile, willpower and sheer expertise of the providers. Apparently there is still an overwhelming resistance to providing a season ticket style package in the UK, but as far as I'm concerned it's the only way forward. The music industry has finally accepted it with Spotify and their like, so it's about time the Premier League did as well.

Best way to combat this is pay per view for an individual game. Which they won't given the Sky deal.

I wasn't sure waht you meant about this until I saw someone post it on facebook. 'Brexit' is going to get real ugly, real fast.

I'm starting to doubt if I made the right choice by voting out

You did. It's everyone who is still moaning vs. gloating about it who're the problem.

Which was equally as ridiculous.

A few sheep and maybe a bit of oil. There's fuck all on Gibraltar.
