Also interesting to see the comments about pubs and hotels etc. Lets hope BT Sport helps improve their businesses in these tough economic times. I, personally, would prefer to go to a quiet, local pub with genuine fans, a real atmosphere and appetite for the game with decent and/or local lager/cider/ale to watch some rugby or football rather than a loud, large national pub chain with the mainstream guff lagers/ciders and a very poor and indifferent atmosphere.
If that paragraph does not show I am getting old, nothing else ever will:(:D

Have just seen he is finally banned. Can't say I'm surprised or disappointed to be honest, I know others will be though. Morbid curiosity wonders what the final tipping point for the mod's was, but ultimately I just don't care.
Ultimately I will not bring this up again and I look forward to the forum returning a quieter, more sensible place, with sensible posts from sensible people (other than myself obvioulsy;))

I feel Man Utd are going to have a very difficult transition, Moyes has cleaned house and it is going to take time for the whole situation to stablise.
BT who cares:p:

Dont know if that was the bit that had him banned however or if it was just the fact he was a complete and utter anker.

As for BT sports as i predicted for myself i had an excellent night watching the Giants eat the Pies in a thrilling match on Sky sports and with no need for me to need BT sports to watch it at all. :D

:LOL: What a douche! I would have loved to have been a fly in the room to see his face when he found out he was banned. If he genuinely thought he was never wrong, he is probably still confused as to how he became banned:) Sorry mod's, that is now the last time I will mention it.
Back on topic, those who can watch BT Sports, I recommend you watch (nope, I recommend more that you get down "The Abbey" and watch it there, if you can) the mighty Cambridge United on Sunday, as they kick off another season of disappointment and dashed hopes and probably mid-table mediocrity:(:D

Obviously next Saturday is free, and Palace are playing on Sunday so I won't be able to watch any of the televised games, but after that I'm seriously considering adding Sky Sports to my package - 138 Premier League games is really good, and to be honest, I don't think the BBC are doing a good job with their f1 highlights programmes on the weekends that they don't have full race coverage. Has anyone managed a decent deal off the back of losing ESPN?

You sure its 138, i thought it was 116?

As good as it is, its still £32.75 in HD (well not the F1, Tennis, News, WWE, minor golf, some rugby, etc), and a price increase supposedly incoming.
