    They are just losing football? Never read the whole thing I'm watching the boxing at the min.

    I think what he's trying to say is this IS the final nail in the coffin for Setanta, and there's no way back now.. I would assume most of their profit (if any?) came from their football.

    Unless they can fiddle the auction and get the football rights once more, perhaps leasing them to SKY as a third party, (as SKY are not allowed to win all six packages), I fear it is the end for Setanta's boxing.

    Change the word profit for expense. Job done

    I'm pulling the plug on Setanta for sure.

    £15 for what?

    Not much boxing, no football, I'm not into golf...

    As much as I like Steve Bunce's boxing hour, it ain't work £15 a month.

    Without any Premier League football next season there is no way they can -or will- continue.

    They only reopened subscriptions last week because they were expecting to get that cash injection that fell through.

    Digital TV - News - BT Vision pulls Setanta sales again - Digital Spy

    The worst thing is they only took my £13 yesterday... grr. I'd cancelled last month but this is my month's notice (waited so I would still get the Haye fight) I won't see that, or any sport, for that.

    If your subs are due I'd cancel your direct debits.

    this is bad news, i have the virgin XL package so get setanta free anyway, be honest i cant afford £20 a month for skysports(plus any decent fight is usually bloody PPV anyway).
