What is a panny viera and a setanta? Sounds like a foreign language to me.

So if i buy one of these boxes (circa £30), i'll get a top-up card. Then subscribe and that card will be live?

Thinking about it, I have a freeview box for £18 from Asda which gives Setanta. It is a subscription channel though and dont know how you'd go about sorting it.

Saw that one this morning. Doubt i could get it delivered before saturday.

Will pop into Asda then to see what they have there.

What a bloody pain this calzaghe fight has been. Couldn't get tickets without a hotel deal strapped onto them or then fancy tickets.

Nearly got some on a promise from the press, fell through. Now none of us have this setanta and we've gotta buy all this stuff, which will only be used for this fight.

your telly should have a slot in it for the card to go into if its a viera (mine does) i bought the card as couldnt get a sky signal because of the trees in my neighbours garden so you dont actually need the set top box just a card and cam pack

Its only £5 a month for Santana sports at the moment with no annual contract :

Setanta Sports

So if you`re desperate to watch the fight £5 won`t break the bank now will it ?.
