:o They were doomed from the start, really. I just hope Sky pick up some of the stuff they show.


Indeed. They currently owe the SPL £3 million as part of an instalment to the league's clubs, and the SPL paid it themselves on Friday as Setanta seemingly can't afford it.

As long as someone I can access picks up the SPL rights I can't say I care to be perfectly honest. Their coverage is still league's behind Sky's.

Am I missing something with this channel? Sky subscribers only have ESPN America and ESPN Classic.

Why would an American channel bid for English football?

This was what I was thinking. Surely they wouldn't bother with the UK rights, and just get the American ones?

What's right with them? :|

We don't need Bramble when we have two perfectly good comedy defenders of our own in Nyron Nosworthy and Paul McShane. Cattermole is no better than Tainio, Whitehead or Leadbitter.
