Talking SKY SPORTS - which package to choose ?

ok im interested in adding a sky sports pack to my plan

I am a man utd fan, and probably will only watch them most of the time.

However i wil lwatch other games so im not wasting money.

The reason i ask, is which pack am i best going for ?

http://allyours.virginmedia.com/html/dtv/skysports.html

i was thinking Sky Sports 1 & 3
( as i think most top games are shown on sports 1 ? am i correct ? )

Also if i phone them up in the next 30 mins, will it be activated immediately on my account so i can watch it tonight ?

Ohh one last thing, is there any chance of me blagging the price, due to the sky situation ?

Re: SKY SPORTS - which package to choose ?

we have the collection, sometimes there is an odd game on xtra, sometimes there is a match on sky sports 2... I dunno. it's only a coupla quid more or something? - up to you, but I bet if you only get 1+3 then you'll see loads you want to watch on 2 + xtra!

Re: SKY SPORTS - which package to choose ?

The majority of Football matches are on Sky One.... but they do show the odd ones (normally Championship or League 1 / 2 ) on Sky sports 2

a list of upcoming games and channels is here
