This £9.99 day pass thing, does this work on things like iPhone/iPad/PS3?

Just about to try it out for the Leicester v Watford game but don't have access to a PC tonight. Before anyone says just purchase sky sports, I was allowed season ticket or sky sports, obviously only one winner there! Thanks in advance!

Yes.

Of course it's expensive, if it was cheap then thousands of customers would cancel straight away in favour of 'pay as you go'. It would be SUICIDAL business.
How many people have Sky to watch only certain teams or just the big games? Shitloads.

I actually think this is a great idea by Sky, and if people don't like it they can stick to dodgy internet streams/going to the pub. But it's good to have another option (especially as we're on Sky quite a lot these days)

Thanks for replies guys! Managed to get it working on iPad but would really like to get it on the ps3 as I can then watch it on the big screen, might have a butchers now its half time. Yes I realise its quite steep at £9.99 for 24 hours but you do get full access to all 6? Channels for that period and I don't mind paying a one off fee every now and then if its a worthwhile match. Not gonna pay £35 a month to watch Wigan v Stoke etc!

Ha yes I did think of that, but I'm full up on Chinese food, drunk from the wine and quite frankly can't be bothered. Perhaps next time...

Like I said, season ticket or sky sports was the instruction. Happy to pay a one off £10 if there is a decent game on!

I watch hours just about every day of not just football but tennis, golf and cricket so my subscription is great value

Our Sky works out at 20 notes a week fibre optic BB movies and sports I thinks that's a good deal for all the entertainment you get.
