Setanta is remarkably bad quality.. in the leagues of ITV if you ask me!

Maybe we should start a petition for Setanta HD

No, nothing is as bad as ITV. I really don't want to watch England matches anymore (even though under Capello we are better than ever) just because ITV is so bad at everything.

At least F1 is back on the BBC!

garlad · 01-19-2009, 11:23 PM

yeah count me in for that petition!! Its horrid at times.. really really bad

I cant get ITV on freesat over here either so cant access their HD service when it is available..

Surely Setanta will launch HD next season??

I go to the England matches instead! Its not too popular amongst my friends over here, but I do what I want to do! And they really didnt like when i joined englandfans so I was sure of getting tickets

It all depends on how well they have done this season I suppose..
They will always be second to Sky who are elite in coverage of all sports.

ITV really need to get in gear and bring ITV HD to Sky..

Olympiakos Vs. Chelsea on ITV last year has to be the worst coverage of a match I have ever seen.. in 13 odd years of watching footy on various channels.

why??? Money? Sky stopping them?? At every game they show live their vans and trucks have SETANTA HD plastered all over 'em!! Maybe its a sign of things to come??

Maximus · 01-19-2009, 11:29 PM

I don't know who is getting it then. It definitely ain't me!

Nor me! I just get the impression from seeing their match day brigade that they have the technology and something is holding them back..

Anyway, i'm off. Post any rumours you might hear tmrw!

Blu_Ray_UK2007 · 01-19-2009, 11:37 PM

Googling Setanta HD throws up some interesting reading.

Not looking like its going to happen any time soon.

I guess you Chelski supporters would sympathise with City!

A disaster for Citeh!

I now have even more respect for Kaka.

yobrenoops · 01-20-2009, 10:26 AM

It was never, ever going to happen. They probably need the money but if you read what Garry Cook says he talks about it being political. That can only mean one thing.

Berlesconi, The fans and ultras would have gone into meltdown.

They should get Diego from Werder Bremen, Podolski, and maybe Vicente from Valencia.

A Northampton Town supporter like me however has to put with "exciting hot prospects" from Ipswich.... on loan....

garlad · 01-20-2009, 11:56 AM

So Robinho has gone AWOL!

Probably upset that his mate didnt sign for City..

Vip3rni · 01-20-2009, 12:10 PM

yep seems robinho has spat the dummy out at training in Tenerife. Says on sky sports he is heading to Brazil? somehow dont think thats anywhere near manchester .

Blu_Ray_UK2007 · 01-20-2009, 12:50 PM

Apparently he left for family reasons.

Other rumors of the day.. Bayern tell 3 English clubs Ribery will cost 140 million!

City now want Arshavin
United want 16 year old Yven Moyo
Palacios is on his way to spurs for 14 million

Also according to The Sun Chelsea may do buisness this January.. in identifying a replacement for Joe Cole.. Pennant and Bentley have been mentioned.

Maximus · 01-20-2009, 01:58 PM

We'll give you Bentley for £20m!

F'in useless player, complete waste of money.

Replacement for Joe cole?? Villa were linked with him a few times!! Hmm..

JJ · 01-20-2009, 02:42 PM

lol! The 'real sport' thing is instigatory! I love soccer, I follow my Peruvian league and a little of the European one, but I go nuts for the World Cup.

Yet I love NFL more...during football season, soccer is known as "kickball"

If only Pennant could be called a replacement for Joe Cole, then maybe I would like us to keep him. Goes missing way too often and, in spite of his undoubted talent, never seems to have the confidence to have a go at the fullback as often as he should. Definitely needs a change of pasture.

Soccer players are manly enough to NOT wear body armor.

You mean Rugby players right?

I love soccer as much as the next guy, but the violence inherent in American football is more than 10-fold of European football. Rugby players are the only ones who can argue

Having followed Bayern Munich when I was younger, i still keep track of them. Ribery would be a dynamic player to add to the Premier League, but $140M? C'mon
