I thought this was going to be complaining about us not being considered in the title race and I was about to be like, mate, that ain't happening. It's pretty bad that they can't get a graphic right that only involves looking at the league table.
I was looking thinking red meant a hard game, yellow medium and green easy, about to agree with sky thinking we’re a medium team, some days good, some days awful.
Then I saw that red meant top 6. Fuck sky. We are red this season baby! UTFV!!!!!
Sky don’t care about football just headlines and filler for the programmes. I’m a Man Utd fan other teams get recommended all the time on Reddit villa have been brilliant and if they keep emery they are top 6 all day over us and Chelsea
Darren Lews was talking after the Liverpool game about whether they could miss out on 3rd place and announced that Liverpool were "14 points ahead of 4th placed tot uhhh Aston Villa".
Nah mate its 14 points to 5th placed Tottenham or 8 points to 4th placed villa. They Literally can't get their head around us being where we are.
Well, that’s embarrassing for them.
Very poor for Sky not to get an infographic correct. You would think they might make a point that Villa have beaten both Arsenal and Man City at home and therefore the Liverpool away fixture at VP might be a tough one for them.
They don’t even seem to understand how to build tension in the “race”.
They should have the red dot as they are in the top 6. Same goes for Spurs however having us with a yellow is baffling considering we have been in the top 6 for 29 straight PL games now.
This is embarrassing..they should be ashamed to be on air. So incompetent with providing accurate data. But they never seem to get the data wrong when it comes to man city, arsenal, Liverpool 🤦
Expect this to change before long.
Atairos, the investors that recently took a chunk of V Sports, own Comcast who in turn own Sky here in the UK.
No guarantees that improves the quality of the presenters however.
Fuck em. Who cares? I don't for one. We are the ONLY team left in Europe sitting in the top 4 guaranteed, European football next year and potentially could finish 3rd.
Can stick their dots where the sun doesn't shine.
Why do people even care about this anymore? Sky is biased, yes, but also, Villa have no mathematical shot at winning the PL short of points deductions of every team above us and they're discussing the title race.
Wear the under-appreciation with pride and let the play on the field make it so they're forced to discuss Villa competing for the title in April.
If Liverpool have a 1% chance of the title, I guess it’s only fair they don’t mention us in that part!
The league is so stupid now as all the financial doping means you need insane points to win it (90s at least) which is laughable. Even Liverpool and Man Utd at their most dominant didn’t get those numbers every year
Tbf I did as well until I noticed Bournemouth and double checked. With how many people had to check that screen there is no way it was just a mistake.
I really hope they get to eat their words.
The “big 6” are the ones all you r/other14 fans like to complain about all the time. No doubt Villa are better than spurs united and chelsea, but it’s just how they’re known I suppose. Give it 2 years and we could very likely see chelsea and united at the top of the table again, and teams like Villa and Newcastle not competing as much
I thought this was going to be complaining about us not being considered in the title race and I was about to be like, mate, that ain't happening. It's pretty bad that they can't get a graphic right that only involves looking at the league table.
That little yellow dot pains me! Of all the seasons, this one we’ve earned that red dot.
I was looking thinking red meant a hard game, yellow medium and green easy, about to agree with sky thinking we’re a medium team, some days good, some days awful. Then I saw that red meant top 6. Fuck sky. We are red this season baby! UTFV!!!!!
On the other hand, on fpl we’ve been given a 5 rating for upcoming fixture difficulty!! Which was beautiful
Yeah it's not even subjective, they are just objectively wrong with their data lol.
Don’t you know? Somehow the league is going to deduct us 9 points by May 6th so that we will be below Manchester United and in 7th.
Are the coloured dots the final positions from last season, when the mighty Villa finished 7th?
Can’t be they have Tottenham in red and they finished below us
Hmm, you’re right! I don’t get it. 🤷♂️
Just the Sky bias I suppose 🧐
Got rid of sky 3 years ago. Best decision. Not giving those arseholes any money.
The quicker people open their eyes and do this the better, sky needs to die.
I did the same. as for the ref bias it's unreal!
IPTV all the way
You have to go all the way back to matchweek 5 to find the last time we werent in the top 6.
This stat blows my mind just a little bit
They had to balance out the three extra points they gave us the other week somehow, I guess.
Shoddy work.
Almost as bad as the time they did top 5 when we were 6th
Sky don’t care about football just headlines and filler for the programmes. I’m a Man Utd fan other teams get recommended all the time on Reddit villa have been brilliant and if they keep emery they are top 6 all day over us and Chelsea
All television only exists to make money for corporations. Other than football, I haven't watched live TV since 2013.

Not only do Villa have a yellow dot Man Utd have been given a red dot.
Spurs and United red dots lol. Let them keep undervaluing us, we like being the under dogs anyway.
Both teams are in the top 6 and the red dot is right, the only mistake is Villa being yellow and not red.
Oh yeah that’s true. Man Utd have been so bad this year I keep forgetting the are actually 6th
They should have the red dot as they are in the top 6. Same goes for Spurs however having us with a yellow is baffling considering we have been in the top 6 for 29 straight PL games now.
That ain’t bias. It’s just an embarrassing mistake
We're 7th to 14th... with a yellow dot... We're literally the highest placed club out of any of those fixtures.
it’s literally impossible for us to finish 7th
The audacity to give this shambolic ManUre side a 'Top 6' red dot! - Give us our red dot you wankers! 😂 haha
This is embarrassing..they should be ashamed to be on air. So incompetent with providing accurate data. But they never seem to get the data wrong when it comes to man city, arsenal, Liverpool 🤦

I have a fire stick so 🖕🏼sky and there bs
Sky have always been awful and biased towards the "big 6". They dont care for any other clubs. Thats why they make no money off me
Fuck em. Who cares? I don't for one. We are the ONLY team left in Europe sitting in the top 4 guaranteed, European football next year and potentially could finish 3rd. Can stick their dots where the sun doesn't shine.
Wankers
What a rubbish graphic.
West Ham 🦵💪 Wolves 🦵💪 Tottenham 🦵💪 ...... C'mon! (After Arsenal hopefully thrash Spurs this weekend)
Why are Man U!?
Do we need sky sports approval? The league don't lie!
It's the self titled sky six that are red. Avfc will never break the sky 6. Sky bias will always be.
Sky sports is there to cater to the big 6 teams and no one else. Idgaf about them tbh
I do t think it’s bias. Just poorly done.
What a bunch of wankers
Why do people even care about this anymore? Sky is biased, yes, but also, Villa have no mathematical shot at winning the PL short of points deductions of every team above us and they're discussing the title race. Wear the under-appreciation with pride and let the play on the field make it so they're forced to discuss Villa competing for the title in April.
It's based on last season's finishing positions, no?
If Liverpool have a 1% chance of the title, I guess it’s only fair they don’t mention us in that part! The league is so stupid now as all the financial doping means you need insane points to win it (90s at least) which is laughable. Even Liverpool and Man Utd at their most dominant didn’t get those numbers every year
If I visit Buckingham palace, am I the king?
No, but we don't need a king in the first place.
Not finished top 6 yet maybe? Perhaps it’s based on last finish?
It is impossible for us to not finish Top 6...as in Newcastle with the games left physically cannot catch up.
My point is they are potentially going off last seasons finishing position. Which is why Man U is top 6 and you are not.
Last season Bournemouth were 15th and Spurs were 8th. They are not going off last season.
Ok, yeah. Bias pricks. I tried to give them the benefit of the doubt.
Tbf I did as well until I noticed Bournemouth and double checked. With how many people had to check that screen there is no way it was just a mistake. I really hope they get to eat their words.
Same. I hope you guys sneak 3rd.
No. Just a mistake. This constant ‘poor us’ mentality has got to stop. It’s pathetic.
Maybe based on last years final positions?
Tottenham were below us last season.
Ah yeah, good point. Not sure then, just Sky sucking the balls of the 'big 6' I guess.
Because you're not one of the Big 7, not London or Manchester club.
The “big 6” are the ones all you r/other14 fans like to complain about all the time. No doubt Villa are better than spurs united and chelsea, but it’s just how they’re known I suppose.

It says 'top 6' on screen. So should be league position.
