Hello all, I follow Irish Gaelic games that are shown on Steanta Sports 2. These games are extremely popular, but the problem is that NTL do not carry Setanta Sports 2, so I (and others) cannot follow the sport. I had accepted this as an inconvience, I am pretty happy with my NTL service. That was until I found that Setanta Sports 2 is available in Telewest areas, I contacted NTL about why they were not showing this channel, and the response came back that SKY own the rights to this channel?? If i understand right, NTL actually own TELEWEST, I can see no reasonable reason why they shouldnt be able to carry Setanta Sports 2. I hope someone from NTL will pick up on this, because I believe the very large Irish community in the UK could be served by showing this channel. Ant chance.............?????????
