but setanta looks more and more powerful each year

if i had to chose it would narrowly go to sky sports, purely because boxing every friday, football more frequent, rugby etc

Hard choice. I dont like how sky try and rinse every single last bit of money from their customers when they have a monopoly over a sport. So i'll have to go Setanta(especially if they manage to get more footy).

probaly sky just cos SKY sports news is better than Setanta IMO. If Setanta can get RL and more PL games setanta defo.

In terms of coverage, Sky by some distance.

If we're talking about quality of coverage, rather than what's on what channel, then Sky owns the rest of the competition.

Setanta is quite far behind at the moment, but that's understandable when you look at how long they've been broadcasting compared to Sky. In a few years time they might give Sky a closer run for their money.

I voted setanta, cos I presumed you meant for boxing. As an overall Sports channel, if you have the money, the Sky Sports I'd say.

I'm glad the BBC have the F1 next year though.

Yeah, all those adverts during the race on ITV got pretty annoying.

I don't know, Setanta is definitely improving, they show a lot of Blue Square games, Dutch, French and German, FA Cup now aswell, they ain't too bad, the news channel is terrible though, I can't complain as it's free with the Virgin media package I've got, plus I've got Sky Sports, so best of both worlds.

Sky sports for me beacuse it comes free with my sky package deal. unlike setanta £20 to join and then 10 quid a month come on.

Sky is far far better. Setanta get the good boxing and occasionally good prem games. The coverage is ****.

Easily Setanta. With all the build up shows they put on, plus the UFC. Sky Box Office is a killer.

I'm still pissed off with them about the Barrera fight that cuts off at round 9. 5am in the ****ing morning i stayed uptil only for them cunts to make a balls up of it.

Plus why is the picture so ****ing ****e on Setanta's boxing?.

We have a 1080p HDTV and most of the fights look like absolute ****e on there.
