1878 Posted June 23, 2009 Share Posted June 23, 2009 56 editorial and production jobs jobs were created Does it really take that many people to watch SSN and copy whatever story they are running half an hour later? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neil Posted June 23, 2009 Share Posted June 23, 2009 Couldn't happen to a nicer or more competent channel... I was all for Sky having a bit of competition but they've made a right pig's ear of it from start to finish. Correct. Badly done with utter pillocks at the helm from the start, and they got steadily worse ! It's the in-thing at the moment don't you know? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest NobbyOhNobby Posted June 23, 2009 Share Posted June 23, 2009 http://www.digitalspy.co.uk/broadcasting/a161685/setanta-sports-1-to-continue-in-ireland.html f*** sake! Now ill have to go through the tedious f***ing cancellation process. What's even more tedious is that you have to go through the tedium of actually ringing to cancel and then get told that you have to send an email to cancel as well. Just saying it isn't enough, they want to SEE it as well.........MORONS! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you cancel the DD they threaten with debt collectors and smear shit on your credit rating. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jill Posted June 23, 2009 Share Posted June 23, 2009 I might watch at 5.55pm, see if there's a "well, thats it, bye!" or just if it goes off. We've just put it on now to watch the build up to failure. I'm hoping for an angry, sweary tirade just before it finishes. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest BooBoo Posted June 23, 2009 Share Posted June 23, 2009 Setanata deserves this for the atrocious "Football Matters" show. Arguably the worst football chat show i've ever seen. No matter what supporters were on the fans panel, they all had southern based accents. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Decky Posted June 23, 2009 Share Posted June 23, 2009 Just wondering, ive got Setanta Sports 1, which is the UK version on my Freeview. Setanta said they will continue in Northern Ireland, but we receive Setanta Ireland aswell here, which is Setanta Sports 1 in the Republic. They might mean Setanta Ireland continues all over the island, so I might not have to cancel at all as SS1 UK will cease broadcasting soon. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Decky Posted June 23, 2009 Share Posted June 23, 2009 Is anyone getting a message on their SS1 channel saying they are working on bringing it back as soon as possible? I thought it was going completely?
