TV4 is not treating Allsvenskan ice hockey as something the cat has been dragged into.
They treat it like something the cat will drag out, eat and spit out.
Do you remember Sea Moore?
Euclid, a Greek mathematician active in Alexandria about 300 years before the birth of Christ, found it difficult to count all the times I sat and swore at the television broadcasts that had been handled by an Allsvenskan ice hockey stepmother over the years.
However, the era of C More was nothing compared to what we are now forced to endure when broadcasting, rights, devil and uncle migrated to TV4.
Where should we start?
I’ve been watching Mora and the lively newcomer Nebro for a while, and when I entered the TV broadcast (“TV broadcast”) there was not a game clock or scoreboard in sight.
After a while, the main camera (there aren’t many) filmed the media cube and so I was able to at least get an idea of the situation in the match.
I changed my location to Karlskoga-Tingsryd and was met by an ice machine in a dimly lit hall.
Broken, apparently.
cheerful.
The sound was disastrous
The poor people who missed the descent between Vasteras-Brenas must have been in for a shock.
Two minutes into the game, the scoreboard (yes, they had one in that game!!!) showed the score as 6-0 in favor of Västerås.
6-0!
The audio was disastrous on many broadcasts, with commentators often shouting at a free position before discovering, just like the viewer, that there was a player left behind, it was just that the player was not visible in the picture.
The commentators should not be blamed for this, their working conditions are poor, in addition to being poorly paid, they are forced to sit in the scrub outside in Gärdet and commentate on the matches on a small screen, and the booths are not larger or entirely different from those that were in the cinemas Porn.
If they’re lucky, they can heat up a cup of pasta during the break, and they can control the replay themselves with the help of the machine next to them.
It’s a televised assembly-line sport, no more dignified than Danish pig production.
Epically miserable – fraud
The fact that the clock that shows how much time is left in the digital overlays is not visible is a new method, it is a kind of “Plex” TV 40 years later, when TV4 Play shows an ice hockey game in Allsvenskan, there suddenly arises an urgent need to sit there with your own timer and your times Crazy myself for keeping up with the games.
Premium, in TV4 parlance.
The streams so far have been very poor, and this is a form of fraud we are dealing with, the equivalent of the bullshit that the streaming giants represent.
Perhaps Telia, TV4 and the production company Rego will meet one day, sit down, look at each other deep in the eyes and ask themselves the question;
Are we really going to do this? together? If so, is it so bad that we have to do it?
Hockeyallsvenskan neglect
The fact that it’s also the TV consumers who want to watch Allsvenskan ice hockey who largely finance the piggy SHL agreement Telia signed makes the whole thing even more interesting.
The quickest and most effective way to change and improve is of course to claim compensation, and if there is no reasonable offer from TV4, simply unsubscribe to bounce back.
Capitalism is an existing economic ideology, which in this case has to do with consumers who pay approximately 600 kroner a month for hockey neglect, also funding the SHL, its large wage envelopes and its cowardly and weak promotion and relegation system.
Thank you.
Wasn’t it difficult to bring the ticking game clock into the picture?
Now I sat down and tried to formulate myself for an hour, but I could come up with no better way than this;
It’s lousy, plain and simple.
