    Then you need to get out more.

    Seriously though, if it is that important, why were you not watching it live?
    Gone ... or have I?

    The whole thing has been a complete wash out anyway - I never thought golf could be classed as a watersport until this weekend. :)

    Does it really matter, mistakes happen, i can really see a complaint having any effect and you leaving them well again wont do much, they have millions of subscribers and more signing up,

    Sky showing the Ryder Cup is quite ironic as most of the action shots in golf just show pictures of the sky

    Why did Richard Keys give the Ryder Cup score after the Chelsea Arsenal game?

    I've never been so annoyed at Sky. They have both sport events and thye just gave the score out of the game that I'm taping on their other channel!

    tried to find a contact email to complain but cannot be found on sky.com - funny that!

    can't get out of my sky hd subscription but have typed letter to explain I will at least cancel my broadband. Am now lokoing for a suitable provider before I ask for my MAC address.

    Absolutely unforgivable from SKY - totally ruined my watching of today's sessions in the ryder cup that I was just about to watch the culmination of.

    lucky then you didn't hear them say about Rory McIlroy being disqualified....
    I'm now a retired teacher... hooray ...:j

    Those who can do, those who can't, come to me for lessons:cool:
