Cricket fans would prefer...

not to have to pay ?36 per month to watch live coverage of our summer game.

Cricket fans would prefer that the test *summer* didn't begin in early May and end with three weeks of August left so as not to clash with the FUCKING PREMIERSHIP.

Cricket fans would prefer that, like them, their children might have the opportunity to enjoy long glorious summers watching England play cricket - instead of completely losing touch and not knowing half the team if they walked up and slapped you round the face.

Cricket fans would prefer that test matches didn't begin on Wednesday (again at the behest of Sky schedulers) thus running the blindingly obvious risk that at least one day at the weekend would be cricketless if the game finished early.

Cricket fans would prefer that the ECB hadn't promised not to sell to Sky, only to then go back on their word.

The quality of coverage is ok but generally, cricket fans would prefer that Sky, quite frankly, f**ked off.
