That depends entirely on what you want to watch!

just want it for the footie mate , there is a full sat kit for sale in argos but dont know ifit is up to much, thanks

The Argos kit will be useless for football - next question how much do you want to pay as the annual subscription charges start at a couple of hundred quid a year for very basic coverage, and rocket upwards of a thousand quid for the best European packages.

Half as much again if you want the HD services!

(Assuming you have to use a UK based reseller)

couple hundred if i could get scottish football ( it aint even worth a pound just now)

Lol you are hoping - Scottish footy tends to be shown on the more expensive end of the subscription packages!

tinny44m · 12-02-10, 08:45 PM

might just pay sky for the footy , seems a lot of work to watch rubbish.

The Scotch games are on the Polish channels a lot. Have a look here mate, it will give you an idea of what is on where *** L.J.s LIVE Sport on Satellite TV. Live Soccer on TV. Live Football on Saetllite TV.
