Footballwipe Posted 18 March 2016 Posted 18 March 2016 Rumoured increase of £10 in the sports pack from June. Expect this will soak up some of those who will abandon the sports pack if true, keeping them with the basic package.
ousefox Posted 18 March 2016 Posted 18 March 2016 It'll be all the shitty games that people wouldn't watch anyway
Captain... Posted 18 March 2016 Posted 18 March 2016 A free to air sports channel, that means they can bid for sports that are only permitted on free to air channels, ie the Olympics, the world cup, half the CL rights.
davieG Posted 18 March 2016 Posted 18 March 2016 A free to air sports channel, that means they can bid for sports that are only permitted on free to air channels, ie the Olympics, the world cup, half the CL rights. Is it free if you've got to pay to be a sky customer?
Webbo Posted 18 March 2016 Posted 18 March 2016 A free to air sports channel, that means they can bid for sports that are only permitted on free to air channels, ie the Olympics, the world cup, half the CL rights. Does it matter though? I've just had 3 months free Sky sports and I have to say it's a very good service.
