No I think including the HD channels for £150 for ten months was asking a bit much.... ;)

It's a decent deal, but I couldn't go back to watching sport, especially the footie in SD, the difference in quality is just too good.

Newcastle on first game of the season. Good times. Though the undoubtedly huge thrashing will probably depress me quite quickly.

You think you've got problems!?

To be honest, it is only the Sport in HD I ever want, entertainment channels can be standard, not bothered. But i like to see that the green stuff players are on is grass :)

Hmmm. So rumours that the Sky Sports increase won't be for everyone, and a ten month offer for the sd channels.

I reckon the hd fee is going up.

So dosen't that mean that you are only saving approx £42.50 per year Doug? If, as you quoted £112.50 saved less £70 for the HD?

Re: ESPN, BT, Euro, Premier and Sky Sports news

This is how Sky's prices will be going up on September 1st

The Original Bundle - No change
The Variety Bundle - £2.00
The Family Bundle - £1.00
Sky Sports (1 or 2) - No change
Sky Sports Pack (1 & 2) - £2.50
Sky Movies (1 or 2) - No change
Sky Movies Pack (1 & 2) - £0.50
HD Pack - No change
Multiscreen - No change

Rumors suggest not everyone will be affected by the Sky Sports price rise with virgin media but we'll just have to wait and see

No Sky Sports SD is £27.25 per month and am paying £15 per month so that is a saving of £12.25 per month for ten months.

The HD charge is not relevant to the saving... that make sense?

This offer makes Sky Sports 1 or 2 on its own for £17 a month look a bit naff!

Agreed but was only pointing out the Season Ticket makes it impossibly naff rather than naff...
