    I have Virgin XL with Sports - get it bundled with my broadband and land line.

    Every summer, I cancel the sports and put the movies on for the missus and the weans cos I'm an altruistic **** like that.

    Anyone want a fight about it?

    I pay for a full Sky package on a single card and I put it in a server and network it over the internet. I use it personally for 6 different satellite boxes in my own houses and have about 10 members of family using it.

    Sky is for ****s and *****s and Celtic fans that don't attend matches.

    There, I've said it.

    It needed saying.

    It's out there now and there's nothing anyone can do about it.

    Unless some power Mad Mod (that actually sounds quite good "Mad Mod") deletes this post.

    Not only do I have a server with a Sky card in it, but I've a moving dish attached to the side of my house in Belfast and I've got it connected to the internet. So if I'm out and about on the Isle of Man I can set my dish to move towards Sky Italia on 13e and then stream live football (including non Sky UK games) video to my phone, or I can record the game onto a hard drive then watching it one of my satellite boxes when I get home (they are all networked together with a 10mb up line from Belfast).

    Yes, I've got far too much free time on my hands :bandit:

    Dev has Sky entertainment and Sports for £20 a month, effectively the Sports for free.

    An outstanding deal or bullshit?

    You decide.

    Got Virgin with the full package. Bit worried now to see how much more they'll want with the football and other stuff going to BT.

    We've got a sky box and satelitte dish but I cancelled the subscription when we moved from the last place. Is there any way I can watch the cricket on Sky Sports for free?
