Or maybe he uses his Sky Sports subscription for watching things other than just wrestling ;)

Standalone sub's are ok but they're certainly not for everyone , some will get more value for money out of a TV subscription.

Do Sky know some thing that the rest of us don't, Sports 5 showing a SPL game, Scotland still part of the UK as far as I am aware.

Also News HQ, sorry I expect news on a 'news' program and not an extended promo as to what's currently on Sky's other channels.

Think peeps are missing the point all future monthly ppv events after night of champions are going be on sky box office at nearly £20 or they can pay £6-£7 and watch them thru the network and in hd it's worth subscribing just to get the ppv events if watch nothing else :confused:

Unless I've missed something, it only says 'Coming Soon to Freeview and Satellite'. This doesn't mean they won't launch on Virgin, who seem to sew these deals up very close to the launch dates.

Bay TV hopes to launch in October. The issues have been the delays in getting the Freeview infrastructure in place so that Bay TV can broadcast via DTT to all of its catchment area.

Bay TV It means we have had to revise our plans and we are now working towards a launch some time in October, depending on the speed with which the Storeton relay can be commissioned. We will set a firm launch date at soon as possible. So, please spread the word, and watch out for further news and updates.

Interesting rumour has just been told to me, Skysports 4 will be named Skysports fight.

Not sure on this one tbh i'd say 10% chance of it happening.
