    This is a sister channel of Premier Sports is it going to be part of the Eir/BT package here?

    Live Eirtricity is from next season. BT/Eir Sports will still get first choice of matches, with this new channel getting the over spill.

    I'm confused. This UK channel will show separate games that won't even be on TV in Ireland? I assumed they would just rebroadcast whatever Eir are showing like Premier Sports used to do.

    No, my understanding is, this new channel will just get the additional matches. Is more an advert for the pay channel. Ie, this is what you could be getting and more.

    I presume there's no point in even wondering if it's available on virgin?

    Doubt it, don't think it's even going on the irish sky EPG.

    Ask in the satellite/broadcasting forums though, them lads should know if it's likely to go on it
