news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/business/8090633.stmCan't say, I'm surprised nor sad about this. Absolute horrible channel, service is shi*t, thier programming is terrible. Don't get me started on the Presenters (minus James Richardson  ) & Pundits. Plus Setanta Sports News, is so embarrasing, copies everything from Sky Sports News.

Yeh.... I have Setanta but really don't like it.... Sky's about 10X better... they could have competed but they have just failed

Truely the TNA of the channel world (no offence to tna fans), but smaller budget and the discarded crap that sky didnt want.
I liked the concept of a channel for people who didnt have sky, but when exclusive rights are in place, whats the point. If it was a free channel showing the content it did, fair play, but come on, a ppv channel showing cast off games?
Whats gonna happen with the remaining footy games? are sky going to own the lot, doubt bbc/itv will get them... or will they just not be broadcasted?
For the likes of my dad, he will be happy as i presume the golf will go back to sky
what about UFC, will bravo/sky have rights to the ppv's and UF series, recap shows?
while we're on, i noticed an advert for the tna uk tour, during wwe adverts on sky sports 3 last night (probs old news) but interesting

This is only going to cost us(everyone) more money. I'd hate to see UFC go SBO & Prem Plus returning.

Meh, I watch a lot of Scottish football, so I'm pretty pissed about it. They also showed tons of WBA, Hull City and Stoke games, so they prob would have showed a fair amount of Burnley this season. Not a BIG deal though  |

Good. It is a right fart on to cancel, and then they cut my viewing early so I missed the Utd/Spurs game

Good they were a ing nightmare to deal with. COuldn't happen to a mroe deserving company tryin to quit them was like trying to quit the mob. I had nothing but hastle with hese clowns. I really hope Sky get the SPL back, When I first got Setanta in the first week tere was 3 games that I wantd to watch a SPL one and to Priemiership ones I only was able to watch one of them because of there crappy service. I just hope they go tits up sooner than later so SKy can get in there and get the SPL before the new season starts. |

Shit. I must be one of few who actually love Setanta. Their UFC coverage is unreal compared to the crapwe used to get on Bravo. Hopefully Sky picks up UFC if Setanta go down the shitter.

Only bad thing to come out of this is for the blue sq clubs who will lose out on much needed money.
