"Free" match highlights

Postby Wooders » Thu Jul 25, 2013 3:17 pm

Something about mcfc in their latest facebook post specifically using the term "free match highlights" rather than just "match highlights" has me concerned about the future of the website/cityapp - are they gonna go subscription? Surely not? Maybe just marketing dept. wank gone wrong?!

Maybe they're just a bunch of funny fuclers with a sense of uh humour.

I think you are over thinking things.

Hmmm - hopefully you are correct
Past experience tells me however that things that always been free suddenly being described as "free" usually precipitates a cost

I won't be paying for it, with MOTD and Goals On Sunday on Sky+ why would anyone need to pay City for content you can view earlier and in better quality.

None of those three sources are available outside the UK, chief. I think you can see where I am going with this.
