    Anything out there which beats sky Italia in footy coverage?

    I have come to love this particular package. They splash up to 4 live 3PM EPL games and all leagues across Europe, in english commentary too. You dont need to shift your dish to check results on other teams.

    Was wondering why sky italia so expensive, now i know.

    showtime is good as well to those who can receive it, but 99% of footy fans in UK dont have it due to the massive dish required.

    Thats right m8 showtime,s picture quality is second to non..
    i only get the verticals though,but still get 3 3pm,s every week..and the games i ,m missing can be received elsewhere
    anyway...
    I think pizza package is so expensive cos of all the epl,,and uncle rupert knows pubs are showing it,but turns a blind eye cos he,s getting your money...

              I like JSC for the footy, but then again they show Celtic so I would

                sounds like you're a fellow follower of the hoops! I'm trying to figure out best way to folow them on the sat this season...
                what's JSC? and how much of the bhoys do they show - is it just the odd SPL match? will they do the uefa games that are coming up??

                            showtime broadcaster lack good business skills. They should bring their channels to any of the 3 big EU satellites, 28.2e, 19.2e, or 13e.

                            They will increase their subscriptions multiple times as they show every other EPL game live, no other broadcaster does that. Unless if they are not allowed to beam their signal to Europe.

                              Anybody know if you can just buy a Sky Italia card or must you also get a receiver which is 'married'to the card.I am on the Hotbird satellite,& pick up Al Jazeera using a card & cam,yet was wondering if I can buy a Cam & card to do likewise with Sky Italia?There are lots of special offers in Italy to get the card for 3 months at a special price etc.Any ideas
