Wanderers' TV fans left without pictures for most of the final 20 minutes of the Aston Villa clash on Sunday are still waiting for a refund decision writes Chris Sudlow
Quizzed by the Bolton Evening News whether Sky TV's live Pay-For-View viewers would be receiving refunds after the pictures and commentary were lost, a Sky TV spokesman said on Monday they were "looking into it."
And on Tuesday lunchtime, a further request for information received the same answer.
Meanwhile, adverts for Manchester United's home clash with Tuesday, also on Pay-For-View, are given frequent plugs, when presumably the full match will be screened - again for a fiver!
Pub landlords had paid up to £50 to screen the match and viewers at home paid up to £5 to see the game from the comfort of their own armchairs.
The game coverage came back on screens just before the end of the game.
A spokesman for Bolton Wanderers said the breakdown of the pay per view match coverage had nothing to do with them
"Sky have their own generators which they use to power their electrics and I believe their generators went down. I'm not sure what happened but they lost power."
A Sky TV spokesman said: "We had intermittent power problems. This was due to circumstances beyond our control. We are looking into it."
