    Might be worth a broadband subscription for the month, since we'll be on twice. Match at Reading on the 25th is televised as well.

    It looks like the subscription is only $14.99. Has anyone here ever purchased it before?

    I've got the yearly subscription (get Champs League and GAA matches live with the annual) and I really like it. Granted, I'm lucky enough to be able to use it at work - mostly to listen to matches.

    Technically, Setanta Broadband has it's flaws. The picture clarity could be much better (and larger). The service is reliable though and works on just about all browsers and platforms.

    The archive is really nice - can catch up on Championship and Premier League goals. Course you can see Rs and Championship goals on World. If you miss a Championship match (or many others) you can catch them on the Setanta archive. Plus, the second broadband channel actually shows a bit more than you get with a TV subscription.

    Yeah. You only have to have some access to Setanta. :mad:


    :p Dang; I guess it's time to start calling the local soccer-friendly pubs.

    Speaking of TV matches - here's confirmation of another one - in December. Should be a fun match too...

    Sat Dec 6
    QPR v Wolves (5.20pm)
    Sky Sports 1
    5.15pm UK
    Championship

    Slight problem though, it's a Heineken Cup Rugby weekend. So we may get bumped in the States from Setanta's main channel.
