Default two more fined £4k by Sky(TW main page)

So we have more parasites out on patrol,calling at pubs to see if the pint logo is showing on the football.

So now the landlords have a criminal record it would seem, I find the entire
set up by Sky as robbery, some pubs around here only open
now Thursday to Sunday, due to lack of trade, I site an example in Minera and Bwlchgwyn all in Rural areas within Wrexham County, both are tiny locals
I have asked what have Sky quoted you as the smallest payment to show premier league, £400 a week was the answer, none show Sky, and I dont blame them. I do have it on good authority from a friend at the local County Council, these spies get excellent commission,one word sums them up "SUNREADERS" Thanks Yorks for your comment below, dont want to show sunreaders,with
a good IQ.

i cant see how sky can fine anyone they have to take it to court (perhaps in wales things are different ?) why is commercial law and private individuals law(are different) on who yu want to provide a service . If a commercial public house or club wants a different sports provider its there business. Sky is just frightened they may have to cut there priices to br competitive. (its called fair competition)

Now that Setanta have got in on the act, some weekends Sky only show 1 prem game. Hardly think that justifies a minimum charge of £400 p/w for your average back street pub.

In Wales some County Borough Councils have come a cropper for not getting the Regs right, in the old days a warning was enough, now its
trying to look good with a prosecution, but we pay for the mistakes
in our Council Tax.

Anyhow
In North Wales the Police are now using an old Ifor Williams trailler with a speed camera inside, as the law says from last Sunday, the Police dont have to identify themselves. Big article in the local Daily Paper about
this, it gets worse. Ill try and e mail to the site the article.
