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

I'd say 0% chance of that happening considering Sky Sports 4 shows a lot of Golf it would be a pretty stupid name.

[QUOTE=Media Boy;35721743]Seen no news for your area but your may pick up Made in Leeds on Freeview - If you have one.

QUOTE]

UHF Channel 56 from Keighley is reserved for Local TV, so it will get a service if the franchise is taken up when advertised. If it's not, there is the possibilty of it being lumped in with Leeds.

Just in? http://variety.com/2014/tv/news/sony...ls-1201251021/

June 26th, not exactly breaking news!
Edit: I'm aware that it may now be completed, but there's no real difference between the announcement to acquire and completion 99% of the time in cases like these.

When the new illogical numbers were announced I did wonder if they were planning to give them names instead of numbers. Remember Sky Movies used to have numbers.

It would be even more illogical to call a channel that predominantly shows golf Sky Sports Fights.

If rumour is true why did Sky Sports not rebrand Sky Sports 4 on August 12th when Sky Sports News was being rebrand.

Hi MB,

sorry quick question about tomorrows free view of SKY Sports, what time does the channels get encrypted again on Sunday, as there is a great boxing card from America at 2am Sunday.
Thanks in advance,
mark

Virgin say 6am on Sunday.

But I have seen Virgin on their box overnight from 12.30am to 4am so it may start early and end early.
