Skirge Posted November 28, 2007 Share Posted November 28, 2007 I suppose once SSN go's off on freeview then its all us non sky customers will have. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
relámpago blanco Posted November 28, 2007 Share Posted November 28, 2007 I suppose once SSN go's off on freeview then its all us non sky customers will have. Aye if they make a good job of it they'll have much mroe viewers. One hell of alot more people have freeview or virgin than sky. Plus when they turn off the analogue system theyll have even more. Sky could have screwed up here but no doubt Setanta Sports News will be gash. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thespence Posted November 28, 2007 Share Posted November 28, 2007 They've got a lass from Madrid TV presenting Alison Bender? She has done the rounds, started off on the shopping channels, then Chelsea Tv, then Real Madrid Tv, then SSN & Setanta Sports..........thats if it is her like, it will be.

The Bonk Posted November 28, 2007 Share Posted November 28, 2007 It'd sure be nice of Setanta to add some more content to it's North American channel. Who doesn't love being advertised a channel that you've already purchased 20 times an hour? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ujpest doza Posted November 28, 2007 Share Posted November 28, 2007 I suppose once SSN go's off on freeview then its all us non sky customers will have. Didn't realise it was going off Freeview. I have Skysports but not SSN due to it being part of the Factual and Documentary bundle that i don't pay for and i struggle to get a picture on Freeview for it. Setanta Sports news sounds good to me.

WarrenBartonCentrePartin Posted November 28, 2007 Share Posted November 28, 2007 :frantic: NO MORE "I'M A FUCKING CELEBRITY"!!!!" we have Virgin here, so no SSN, and the signal for freeview in my bedroom is shite, so I can't get it there. This is a blessing! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
thewellander Posted November 28, 2007 Share Posted November 28, 2007 It'd sure be nice of Setanta to add some more content to it's North American channel. Who doesn't love being advertised a channel that you've already purchased 20 times an hour? No doubt. After paying $20 a month, I would like to have half time coverage of some sort on the weekend games, instead of that graphic for 15 minutes. I actually switched to the Broadband service. I find it much better than the North American channel, and it's a tad cheaper than it is here in Canada. Only problem is that you can't seem to go full screen.

toontownman Posted November 28, 2007 Share Posted November 28, 2007 Yeah it is a tad annoying but dont we get more games than they do back in the motherland? seemed to get more for your money on the broadband deal but i dont think my laptop could handle it!

Decky Posted November 28, 2007 Share Posted November 28, 2007 Apparently Setanta and ITV are in talks for Setanta Sports News to take over the ITV2+1 slot on freeview. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
madras Posted November 28, 2007 Share Posted November 28, 2007 can't be hard to challange SSN. just repeat the headlines over and over and have a couple of regional reporters on hand to tell you something is happening behind closed doors and he'll bring it to you as soon as he finds out what.

This is a blessing! It's the same with my freeview box and sometimes channels go missing. Just try everytime this happens just to tune all your programmes in again.

Guest RodrigoPalacio Posted November 28, 2007 Share Posted November 28, 2007 Best thing for Setanta to do would be to conecentrate more on other sports other than just having football constantly on the go. They could also involve more than just two people sitting reading news, how about having the odd program like the sunday supplement on sky where they actually get people to talk bout sport.

Agree with that. I'd much rather Setanta had some/a lot more reports/news on sports such as Basketball, Ice Hockey, Rugby, Skiing, winters sports etc etc rather than just looping the exact same hourly news of which 40mins is football, all day long.

I doubt it, what with the News Corp links. Best thing for Setanta to do would be to conecentrate more on other sports other than just having football constantly on the go.

Joey Posted November 29, 2007 Share Posted November 29, 2007 I watched it this morning, wasn't overly impressed, they seemed to just get everything wrong. I'll continue watching though, it may just be nerves for the first day on air properly and the whole format may improve after time. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
