    Pretty much everyone I know who has dealt with their customer service said they were beyond total shite. I get Setanta free so I ain't got no beef with them and I'd be gutted if they went down.

    It's people like Setanta who have presided over the relegation of boxing to being a minority sport ...... fighters used to be on free TV which made them massive stars, now they are PPV which only those already interested will pay to watch. Talk about not trying to increaese your fan base.

    Good riddance to the thieving bastards

    They'd better at least last till Sunday. They already pulled their subscription system, you can't sign up either by internet or by phone.

    sooner everythings back on sky the better as far as i am concerned - one subscription only required

    12.99 a month for that shite

    and yes as said their customer service (if you could get them on the phone) was the worst I have ever come across


    bet Haye knew this about a week ago

    The problem is though, Sky aren't investing in overseas boxing, so kiss goodbye to seeing the top fighters fight. Also I've heard ITV may pull the plug on Hennessy and buy him out of the remaining 10 fights so they don't have to show them.

    I wana see Cotto - Clottey . Ufc 99 then next week the Chagev Haye fight . If they go undr after that then it doenst matter cuz theyve got nothing else and the boxing can come back to Sky sports. Bravo can get the live Ufc cards.

    Hopefully this means Bunce will be off the telly. That man was given too much exposure.

    Setanta have been a fresh of air to British boxing they have shown great big fights and without them we are all losing out. This weekend is going to be great to watch Cotto. I hope ESPN take over and give Sky some competition. I use to know the up and comming fighters, watching Eric Morales and Shane on under cards of big events was great. Now I do not know who Victor Ortiz etc are.
    Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.

    Wow this sucks. Here in the States I was able to watch a little Setanta and Sky for European Boxing and Boxing in general. That sucks that Setanta is going away. This is why we need a Boxing Channel. Here in the States Football and Baseball have channels for themselves, hell even Hockey and Basketball has one and Boxing towers over all sports. Boxing deserves a channel!
