Ratings and reviews

If you like wokeism , censorship and general political propaganda then this is the app for you. Rubbish platform, it was a good decent app back in the day.

For years this was my go to sports app. I can understand putting Murray Kinsella's superb analysis behind a pay wall. If it was €20 or €30 for the year I would more than likely have paid it, but straight in at €60 seems quite excessive. I would have put up with this, but now 90% of articles seem to be behind the pay wall, rendering the app useless. Unfortunately after many years, I have deleted the app.

No fixture times or results with the new design which was my favourite features. And aside from Murray Kinsella, who is now locked behind a paid subscription, the quality of the writing is subpar with lots of puff pieces to drive clicks. Very slow at times too to report. I uninstalled it before but gave it a second chance after they restored some of the features mentioned above but they're gone again and with the constant push to subscribe and poor reporting I can't see myself coming back again.
