Hardly Setanta's fault since they were already up to their necks in debt at the time of the last bidding round. ESPN were'nt even even at the dinner table. They were the proverbial vultures waiting for the lion Sky to have it's fill while they kept their distance until it was safe enough for them to pick up the scraps. They're lucky they've got 23 games since they didn't even have a bid in originally.
They were also quick to jump into bed with Sky to carve up the SPL between them.
