Hi

new to this board, and in fact new to the US, having just moved from London to Chicago with work. I have just had DirecTV installed in my apartment (as they had a cheap deal) and want to start sorting out where/how to watch some Premiership Soccer on US TV.

I found http://www.soccertv.com/ useful, but also found that I don't have the channels I need :( It looks like Fox Soccer and Setanta are my only real options for regular games, but it seems like they are expensive if I dig into the DirecTV site - is that the case? I saw $11.99 for Fox and another $11.99 for Setanta each month?

Any help, direction etc appreciated!

Thanks

Jon

Yes, $12 a month for the pack that FSC is part of (less if you sign up for movie packs too) but GolTV is also part of that pack.

$12 for Setanta too.

$24 a month for 3 soccer channels is great value for me, but then again I'm married and have no life so what else would I do with $24? It's not like I get to go to the bar or anything.
