Good news, their football coverage was abysmal.

Also with ESPN seemingly circling football rights, and having to create a UK channel for it, you'd imagine they'd show their golf coverage here too.

Win win imo.

Cancelled my DD though as I don't trust Setanta to keep taking the cash otherwise

Just noticed Oh crap! I liked having the Golf channel. How am I going to drool over the K1 and FAST irons from now?

So does that mean I have to call up and cancel my DD?

setanta wasn't an add on for me it was part of XL package.
spoke to them tonight as the web link doesn't work.

they said that setanta went off at 6:15, as yet they have no idea what is going to happen but we will be kept informed - no surprise there.
until then they given me the full unregulated 10MB Broadband upgrade, at least for a while (the one we're all getting anyway is regulated). so at least it's worth a call.

They are still running in Ireland though I think, its only the UK arm that has gone into liquidation - so maybe they'll continue to show anything they've already paid for, and no-one else will get their hands on it

I'm currently redundant myself, wasn't aware though that peoples jobs were the topic here, it was their sports coverage, and for that, whoever picks up the slack, be it SKY or ESPN, it can only be better.
