Ok, just had a major row with Sky Business Sports. Forked out £4,000 last year to them for the Sports Pack and Prem Plus. They want more this year so I told them to poke it up their digital backsides.

I've just found a system. Ordered and paid for it and it's being delivered in the morning. £600 all in including the equipment (new satellite dish and box) and first years viewing card. Annual viewing card thereafter £200. This sounds like the deal of the century as it includes all that a Sky Sports pack would and also Prem Plus, plus some xtra games Sky doesn't show. All this is totally legal with some grey area around the Saturday 3pm live match.

I'm fucking worried sick though that the commentary will be in Arabic or Chinese and the matches themselves will be played by cartoon characters in a bizarre animation :eek:

I'll report back tomorrow after the live West Ham game on my new Sat System. This could save clubs and pubs thousands every year.

There is nothing on TV worth that much money.

Business packages...if you own a sparts bar and need 15 different games on 15 different tv's, you gonna have to pay.

Not a business package but my mate gets "special card" from major London area of electrical business which sounds like the same package as that but not a business package...
Matches played on Saturday afternoon that ain't on Prem Plus or Sky Sports are usually the commentaries that you get on the Sky Football First highlights thing on a Saturday evening...
It will only seem like cartoon characters if Fulham or Bolton are on mate...:D

Ok. It's all been delivered an hour ago, the technician is installing the new dish and we should be beaming from the satellite soon. I'm crapping myself.

This is totally legit Joe. I don't do bad things :-)

The first two live Premiership matches yesterday were with foreign commentary, sounded a bit Norweigan to me. The Arsenal/Man City game was with English commentary. The whole thing works a treat, is outfuckingstanding good value for money and also has the X porn channel descrambled as well! There's the AC Milan channel, Chelsea and Man Utd TV along with various Eurosport channels and a weird Serbian sports station. Film channels x 10 and a few dubious looking foreign soap opera channels thrown in.

Football and porn, as much as you can eat... for just £200 a year and pub/club licensed. Yum yum.
