Setanta

I do indeed. Both channels cover different courses though. Other than Ascot; At The Races has contracts with lots of 'smaller' tracks. Racing UK have pretty much every Grade 1 track in the UK (Newmarket, Cheltenham, Aintree, Newbury, Epsom etc...)

Now available as part of the News and Events pack

We get this now as part of our package, absolutely brilliant. Just a month toolate to see the Pens win the Stanley cup!

Not worth the effort. 23 games hidden in amongst all the crap american sports on there, think i'd rather stick to 5 live if any of the games turn out to be remotely interesting.

How many times do people need to be told, the prem games aren't going to be on ESPN America, just like they're not going to be on ESPN classic. ESPN are developing a standalone channel to carry their premier league games and it'll will be available at an extra subscription amount

In fact, I think it's going to have the same channel number on Sky that Setanta used to. Already on freeeview the (old) Setanta channel has been rebranded as ESPN.

Coincidentally, OFCOM have just released the results of their investigation and they are saying that Sky's content should be made more available to other platforms :
