    Probably a repetitive Question but need some help

    Hi All, I'm new to all this but i'm moving house soon and i've noticed the house I'm moving to has a satellite dish on back of it, I think its one of the Aldi or Lidl 1's. It's pointing the same direction as all sky dishes in the area so I'm presuming it's pointing to 28E...hope i'm making sense so far.
    So I'm hoping to try setup a dreambox or some sort of satellite receiver(haven't purchased 1 yet and don't want to get anything to expensive yet until i figure out how all this works) so I can view the FTA stuff first, keep the missus happy with the soaps! That should be straight forward but I'd also like to be able to pick up as many of the premiership matches as possible on the foreign channels! What would be my best option here? A second dish? I noticed from L.J's live sports that an awful lot of matches are shown on Sky sports 1 Germany! Is it possible to get this?Or what is the best way to watch football games without subscribing to sly sports.Any help would be greatly appreciated and again appologies for the novice question!!

      ok cheers, so basically what i'm looking for will be quite expensive to setup initially. But it doesn't have to be german tv just looking for something to watch the premiership games on

        Like father ted says - i would recommend a second dish ( so the missus can watch soaps while you watch football on a different satellite in a different room ) and a motorized dish At that and the bigger the better possibly 1metre, dreambox clone dm800hd can be bought from china from around ?120 and up, although there are cheaper boxes around that will do the same job like the openbox series which is around ?50-?60 and you will also need to be connected to the Internet and you will also need to pay someone somewhere to be able to watch the football/sports channels ( google "ca$dsharing" can't talk about it on the forum).

          I use a motorised dish of ebay and an openbox s10 also of ebay.Total initial set up was just under 200 quid i set it up myself(loads of guide's around the net but i used the one on here and it works great).Dont think ive missed a liverpool match yet this season .Not sure if thats good or bad thinking on how we played in some of them game's.
          Anyway i went with the openbox because of how easy the setup was.Ive since got a dreambox500 to play with but the openbox is so user friendly and does what i want.Just the epg is the only thing i miss.
