I quite often check the Sky Sports app for news however I'm becoming increasingly frustrated as it becomes more and more 'click bait' orientated. I see the headline VVD certain to leave for example and I'm under the impression there's been some more developments only for me to, ultimately, be dissappointed to see it is in fact just the opinion of one of their experts for instance Jamie Carragher. Does anyone find themselves irritated by this?

I don't bother with it anymore, BBC is going the same way, " " all in yellow, then it's "X player MAY leave", or "X player is probably not leaving", or stuff like that anyway. I bitched about it last year with them trying to pass off women's football as the same as men's football, with main headlines like "City make record signing", only for it to be for women's football, next it will be overseas clubs with "City" in their name.

It's annoying that you can't trust headlines or even full articles anymore on account of lazy/ poor journalism. Nothing ever seems to be what it seems. One correct story seems to count for 15 incorrect BS articles. Same with so many things now, press conferences another one. No accountability and too many vested interests.

Most people don't have the time to research things with a fine tooth comb, but you'd expect the people paid to "inform" to actually be rewarded on providing accurate information, not how many people they can trick/ mislead/ attract with half truths or incomplete details. Problem is the competition creates a rat race, rather than improving the content, bring in the regulators is what I say because it's all so corrupt now and the people suffer.

Irritated by Jamie Carragher? Often. His analysis is actually quite good but his squeaky voice is annoying.

Jamie Carragher infuriates me on a daily basis!

I can't even watch him with the sound off.

Sky have hit a new low this summer.

Their fees are deceiving. Implying add-ons are part of the final fee. For example Lukaku for "£90m", not £75m. Pickford for "£30m", not £18m.

I have no idea what the actual transfer fees are but it seems Sky don't either and including ongoing fees just glorifies transfers which is surely only adding to this ridiculous market.

Welcome to the era of fake news, of which the bbc are one of the worst for it. Too busy pushing an agenda.

Sky sports are just looking for suckers to place bets.
