ITV only have the home games. Nothing on Setanta website yet about the game being on although they do have 7.30 UEFA Cup to be confirmed.

I ordered a UK freesat sky viewing card today so I can watch this and any future games that may be on channel 5. It cost 45 euro which was a bit steep but I kinf of paniced that it won't be on Setanta as they specify half 7 (think Newcastle are on around then) and TV3 would hardly build their schedule around a Spurs game.

It's gonna have to be the pub for me then.
Not that that's a major problem !!

Word of warning here. Make sure that the phone line isn't connected to the box when you are using this FTV card or the card may cease to work. Also if you leave the card out of the box for a while (say a few weeks or more) C4 & C5 may stop working. Usually they return when the card is left in for about 24 hours.

Thanks for the tips. If I only use the card periodically (say whenever there's a decent match on) should I be leaving it in the box from a day beforehand on? I have a Sky + box so was thinking of keeping the card in the old skybox and putting the second satellite feed that goes into the sky + into that box for the match.

Good idea to leave the FTV card in the 2nd box. If you lose C4 & C5 on it stick the card in usually C4 comes back after 12 hours or so and C5 after about 24 hours!
Most important is not to have the phone line connected to Skybox whilst the FTV card is in it. Otherwise the updates from Sky that come down the phone line may clear it completely!

Andrew83 is correct - Setanta Ireland have it - Channel 434 on Sky, according to Digiguide.
