Glad I didn't pay extra for that card slot in my Freeview box!

They probabaly wont survive, but I hope they do. I quite like Setanta and Sky needs a competitor to keep them honest.
Plus Sarah Stirk has a nice pair on her.

paying for Sky ok fair enough, but paying for anything above or extra is a f,ing rip off IMO, all football and sports should be included in the fixed price you already pay the robbing b,stards, hence why i boycott all these pay per view Dick Turpin highway robbing c_unts i already pay enough every month without extras

Pontificating
You are getting robbed
I have the equivilent of Sky Sports (Fox Sports, same box same remote etc) I get every Premier league game live, every Champions League, League Cup, some Championship matches. I have seen every United game Live this season, well since I moved here in November anyway.
Funnily enough Setanta had the rights to the FA Cup, bar the final, the local were telling me that Setanta had the European Championships and were charging a premium for it, **** that, I just hope they dont pick up the WC rights !!
The down side of ESPN getting the matches would be the worst football pundit of all time, Tommy Smyth, a seriously annoying Irish guy with less knowledge about the game than Ash.

They dropped a bollock letting Sky getting another match package back for this season and somehow paying more for less. If it wasnt for Prem + UFC I wouldnt bother.
Rubbish commentators and lack of HD means I wont be bothered if the fold as long as UFC goes to Sky. Strange how Virgin have Ultimate Fighter show though.
