    I see ch5 have secured rights to Serie A for the coming season, does anyone know if Setanta/Eurosport/Bravo or anyone else have rights as well?

    I'm afraid if Channel 5 have the rights my beloved Francesco will be off our TV screens but Serie was streamed live from betfair last year so it could still be this year.

    Did Setanta only have the rights for 1 season?

    I'm open to correction here lads but I think I read somewhere last week that Setanta will still have Serie A as well. Apparently Channel 5 are going to miss out in quite a few big matches with their package. I will try to find the source I was reading.

    Don't see why Setanta couldn't get Irish rights.

    No they weren't getting their feed from Bravo. Setanta also showed games that Bravo didn't. They had different commentators and everything.

    Bravo's coverage ended half way into last season. Setanta showed live matches all season.
