From 11 July, Sky Sports will have an EPG rejig, with Sky Sports News HQ being moved from 401 to 406. It should never have been on 401 IMO

That'll put Sky Sports 1-5 taking 401-405, the way it should be. SSF1 will be 407.

Also, SS1 will be renamed Sky Sports The Open for the duration of the golf tournament.

It will probably be around September then by the time I realise I need to stop pressing 401 for Sky sports news.

Thanks.

Think I'll have to give Setanta sports the chop (although they do have Saturday evening fixtures)
