I just want the sports?

Mr.H

So i have no tv service at all

I do have some sort of fast-ish broadband (unsure exactly i think its 24mb) with smart telecom

I usually stream my football but its getting to the point where streaming is more stressful than the football so i need tv

I want sky sports, setanta and bt

This is all i really want but obviously will get whatever i have to within reason


So my question is what are my options. As cheap as possible prefferably as i dont like the idea of paying €100 a month to just watch the sports channels

Are there alternatives to signing up with sky or UPC

I'm in the Limerick city area

Yea i seen that offer and put with the upc skysports for 6 months for €1 they are good deals. but the problem is its then over €100 a month after 6 months

Its possible to take Setanta without taking any other TV package, if you get a satellite dish installed and get yourself a second-hand Sky Digibox.

However its nigh on impossible to do the same with Sky Sports, via a traditional TV service at least. You need to take some sort of basic package from the provider (Sky's Original Bundle, UPC's Digital Value or eVision's Essential Pack).

I got the Sky Sports package recently for 64e a month,but I got a good deal off the sales person at those kiosks. They gave it to me for 2/3 months at half price. Im paying BT 20e a month for that,so all in all its costing 84e a month.They good news is I can knock off the sports when the premiership is over!!

you're paying paying BT €20 a month, you need to ring them and renegotiate that price downwards.
