Who's getting BT sport in for the new season?
I'm looking for an Internet provider so was gonna go with them or I may just go back to Sky and pay the extra there.

What I mean is, I don't like how they are going about things...portfolio wise...they are just going for everything.

I doubt it will last.

I don't care but the chance of extra footie on the TV is always a bonus for me.

I don't like how they've just gone and poached aload of presenters from the BBC, etc.

Also, look at how much Sport the BBC have lost.

Money talks,always has and always will unfortunately.
The BBC could have shown live football other than cup matches but they chose not to spend the money.
Sky came in and were willing to do so and in fairness changed the English first division into the Premiership we all love today.
It is the main reason I don't mind paying the bill to watch it,I remember the days growing up when ya had to wait to see your team live in an F.A. Cup match.

I expect Arsenal to win, but Villa won't be easy...they've already made some quality signings.
