Well its the same for me too i sub to sky sports for the cricket mainly,and took HD on a months trial to see how good it really was and lo and behold sky put a pro 40 match on sky sports 3 and HD 3 whilst i could watch the match the HD was not available to me.doh!
So its not just football fans that think they are being played around,re-skys tricks you only have to look at skys ad for its new HD sports news channel, when the presenter says its going from freeview ie BT he positively gloats,now if thats not sky sticking two fingers up to BT vison viewers i do not know what is,yes i am sure sky may have some more "little" games in store yet,pity no one seems powerful enough to stop them sadly.
By the way football fans i understand your frustration that early season championship matches have been on HD3 sports,but please remember once the season starts properly most of the matches will be on HD1 and HD2,there are other subs as well that may sub for the golf, tennis,or cricket at certain times that would also love to see the match in HD so its not all about football
