comeonthebiscuitmen its fu*king shit

I want to watch Reading games in the pub

and i cant - ever since setanta started showing prem games at the same time as championship games are being broadcast on sky its been oxf*rd imposible to get a pub to put championship games on.

I live in merseyside so the chances are that everton or liverpool or one of he big teams will be playing in the espn match

whaddaya know - Newcastle Utd V Reading is at the same time as an everton match!

its got nothing to do with competition it just makes people pay twice for sky sports - its fukking ridddiculous!!!!!!

Your beef should be with Sky for trying to match Championship games up against Prem games. It would be a lot better if they decided to play televised Championship games on a Friday night or on Saturday evening after the 5:15pm game.

Subscribed last night. Sky (or ESPN) have given me a £5 credit off the first month. I'll then decide in a couple of months time if it's all worth it. Great thing is, is that you can unsubscribe as you would Sky Movies or Sky Documentary package - no Setanta call centre hassle !

ESPN Classic is still free to air - am gutted that ESPN America has gone but may subscribe esp if you can unsubscribe quite quickly if you want to.

I don't think ESPN America has gone - its moved to 430 and is included as part of the ESPN subscription

Sorry that's what I meant, I had it Sunday but as its now part of the ESPN package which I haven't subscribed to as yet it's been unavailable since Monday.

The new subscription channel will offer live Barclays Premier League football, international sports and a wide-range of premium U.S. sports previously provided on ESPN America, which will be integrated in the UK into the new channel.
