ncfcstar 291 Posted September 5, 2008 Sky obviously didn''t want them enough, so don''t blame Setanta blame them or the BBC for not bidding a bit more. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
colneycanary 0 Posted September 5, 2008 I''d rather pay £10 for Sentanta than £40 odd for Sky! I hate Sky! Why is it so expensive because they show adverts??? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Albyella 0 Posted September 5, 2008 Internationals belong to the nation - it''s abhorrent that Setanta or even Sky should have the right to charge for these..... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
colneycanary 0 Posted September 5, 2008 Also a freeview box will only set you back around £30 with a card slot, and their is some great deals at the mo to get sentanta sports free for a year!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

gissing canary 2 Posted September 5, 2008 Come on who does good football coverage?itv just love man utd and only analyse the goals, sky - hate them and the murdoch press, setanta, hey they are learning and true, the news is dreadful, but in fairness to them in the last 6months it has improved a huge amount!

The BBC tend to get 2 or 3 "pudits" (number dependant on live game or highlights) who all say the same thing, except if O''Neill is there. In truth they only need one pundit because they just talk and talk and talk and talk for what seems for ever. ITV like you say only analyse the goals, they do get some good pundits from time to time though. The problem with ITV though is like when a few years back they had Venables and Bobby Robson the presenter would ask them a question, only to butt-in 5 seconds later to announce the adverts were coming. Why bother getting Robson on if you are not going to listen to what he says. SKY can analyse the entertainment out of anygame and between them and Setanta, they show so much football that I can hardly get interested enough to watch a game.

Mr. Bump 0 Posted September 5, 2008 I''ve purchased 3 months of Setanta but it''s not bad at all because it''s only £6.50 a month for the next 3 months. Then I''ll cancel. Sure streaming is great but I''d rather watch it on a clear picture with no potential buffering Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
O.T.B.C 0 Posted September 5, 2008 I have it free with me Virgin, (Not that kind I''m afraid). I would not pay for it though, the commentry is awful and god knows why they picked Craig Burley to do matches. The news channel is so bad it make me cringe, they show news form days ago and the colour is bad on TV, they get there words muddled up and spout crap, especially the Aussie bloke. Rant over.

O.T.B.C 0 Posted September 5, 2008 Saying that, I still watch some matches and it saves me paying Sky, talking about Sky, how petty were they that they over charged Virgin for Sky One, news and sport. I felt that Virgin done the right thing in getting rid of their services in protest. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

robsonhasscored 0 Posted September 6, 2008 Simply suppl and demand really, if people didn''t subscribe to the "other " tv networks then BBc and ITV would have the option on all sports. Until people stop subscribing to Sky etc then they are going to win the sports they want to win. I don''t and won''t have either. eventually these sports will become so exclusive that the majority of people won''t be prepared to keep these over paid prima donnas on the £150k/week and footbal will come back to the masses where it belongs. I know this is probably years away but it will some day happen. - then all clubs will be able to compete. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
