Setanta/Jennings explanation

[JazMerkin]

Ok someone I was at uni with now works for Setanta, so I facebooked them a couple of days ago to ask WTF was going on & they've told me that what they've heard around the building is that apparently Sky have apparently tried to put in a late block on Setanta showing the fight claiming they have a contract to show Sports Network fights till a certain date, this is the rumour going round their building anyway. So basically its actually SkySports fuckin us over if this is true, dunno if they even plan to show the fight if they stop Setanta.

Setanta have advertised the Cotto and Pavlik fights so they must be showing it. I hope.

This is soooo bad to be treat like this!We should'nt be wondering what channel is could be on for fook sakeSky you fooking rip off greeding twats,"Fook off!"

[Kirkland Laing]

I thought it was Warren behind it but it's Sky being arseholes. Even when Jaz said he'd phoned Setanta and it was on I didn't believe it, Setanta are probably getting lots of phonecalls from Chorley right now and are desperate for money/subscribers due to them losing half their Premiership games when the next TV contract starts. So they'll tell the punters anything. Sky will probably show it the Friday after the fight and we'll have to watch it on a dodgy stream. Bugger.

Have they advertised both fights as "live" ?

[Fenster]

I'm pretty sure they never advertsied it as live. It was always listed as TBC. Bunce said it will be live on his show though a few times.

It was obvious something was fishy when they were showing adverts for Pavlik but not Cotto-Jennings.

Hopefully he'll give an explanation today.

[HattonTheHammer]

All there advertising is pavlik-rubio and not the cotto fight!!


Cant see them showing both fights as theyre pretty much scheduled to start simultaneously and setanta wont wanna screen both cards!

I guess im gonna have to make do with an internet stream for this one
