My System: Mostly gathering dust cos there's no room for dishes here... :( The Sleepy Hollow pollracle has spoken! | So, are there now about a million ice scrapers out there now? I have to say, it really does whiff of the ITV Digital fiasco from all them years ago, buying the rights to things they couldn't actually pay for...  | ||

Presumably they will stay on air for as long as possible. ESPN might pick up a couple of them for whatever new plans they have for the football next season. | ||

My System: andrews dish - jaeger 1224 motor, vantage x221tsci, skystar 2, diablo v2.3, cyfra+ | so apart from overbidding on rights what else caused setanta downfall, is there really a market for two sports broadcasters in the uk ? or has bskyb got too much of a hold on the pay tv market, as there is no one to compete with them. i think setanta could have survived if they had left epl football alone as they had a good lot of sports on the channels they had recently added ipl cricket, had all the european football except serie a rights, spanish already tied up with sky. started to show some nba games, ufc was covered well and gaining an audience . now lets see what espn do as we know they have the resources and experience of broadcasting all over the world. | ||
