they often have free to air showing of games. They don't advertise it often. You don't need to subscribe to see it, but it is worth watching.

How would I love to be sarcastic now, but yes that's the case. I know it doesn't sound right, especially for that monet grabbing lot at Sultana but it is.

think they are doing it to try and get some good PR after all the bad they have had over the last couple of day's.

Last night was hilarious, I got Setanta on a three month free trial basis so watched at home, as the commentator was building up to a commercial break after the match he says " and the England fans are delighted and still inside the stadium singing at the tops of their voices " so up comes the fader on the stadium microphones and the England fans are singing "WE HATE SETANTA, WE HATE SETANTA" :lol: :lol: :lol:

I was at the match in Barcelona on Saturday and I don't know if it was audible but the crowd were singing that for much of the game.

I have no problem with Setanta at all, I think they offer a very good service at a very reasonable price. A yearly subscription to Setanta is not much more expensive than a television license, yet I know I watch Setanta far more than The beeb. If I were asked out of the two which is value for money then I'd say Setanta everytime. People are venting their frustration at the wrong organisation.

If you don't keep up to speed with SV's you know nothing...as I nearly found out last night when, by pure accident I was flipping thru' the Freeview Channels when all of a sudden...ENGLAND HIGHLIGHTS!
:shock: :shock: :shock:

Of course had I checked on SV's then I would have already known about the fee viewing of the game.
