U-zzz

Much as it grates to say it Sky are completely blameless for this particular situation. :D

The reason 3pms are blacked out in the UK is solely down to the FA / Premiere league - they refuse to let them be shown live to protect live attendances especially in the lower leagues..

Cheers for the replies.

Club is of the opinion that a fine would still be cheaper than SKYs charges.

Club is in the red and needs to cuts costs, excuses I know. I'll just let them get on with it.

The Installer said the company was called ‘Club Entertainment' based in Manchester. Used hire vans no livery. Save time googling there’s no info on them, very professional!

I think this is a case of ignorance is bliss.

Thanks for all the responses but my advice has fallen on deaf ears.


PS 50" LG Plasma. Actually looks quite good'

Club might bear in mind that a second offence would undoubtedly bring more swingeing sanctions and possibly push them further into the red!
