Re: sky sports red button
I had a courtesy call off Sky 7-10 days ago , to see how my service was going , I got talking to the guy and he stated Sky were looking to launch loads more HD and said something about hearing rumours of another Sky Sports HD channel . It was CS so maybe pinch of salt applies .

I agree pal , there are threads on DS though about clashes with sports on a regular basis , and the need for a new sports HD channel. I'm not saying it will defo happen , however there's a possibility.

Yes they should do but then they set up new channels and ask outrageous carriage fees in return for the new channels.

Pass not sure on that, I think the OFCOM deal is only for Sky Sports 1 and 2 HD , hence no 3 and 4 HD.

Due to Ofcoms weakness Sky are still riding roughshot over Virgin with regards to new channels, they should be forced to sell their channels at a price set by a independent body and if Ofcom cannot do that then appoint someone who can.

Aside from one of them being the only team I can think of not to concede a goal at Old Trafford this year.*

But they hardly put 2 passes together and l think the Man Utd keeper fell asleep as he never had a save to make.

I'm sure Brechin City would have challenged them more.
