SPEEDY69 1,253 Posted March 9, 2017 Might it be the weather and rained off events costing money Does anyone know the stats on rain-offs? Many people seem to think they happen at the start and end of the season but I'm not sure that's always true. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Steve0 5,517 Posted March 9, 2017 OveFundinFan- Sky did not pull out last week this was done a couple of months ago and was first discussed with BSPA at end of last season. There is no technical reason that i can foresee in my experience that would need to postpone the first meeting until June If that's the case then how do I get my money back for Sky Sports for the last couple of months? If people had been informed sooner then they could have saved themselves £50+ :mad: 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CookieIpswich 249 Posted March 9, 2017 Rain Offs wouldn't be so much of an issue if the BSPA prioritised other aspects of the sport first THEN rebranding Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
OveFundinFan 4,139 Posted March 9, 2017 I signed up this morning to BT to supply tel/b-band/tv (in 2 rooms) for just over £40 per month. Thats broadband at 55mb/s Its a hefty upfront cost cause I wanted both rooms to have a recordable tv box, so that was £99 in itself, £50 activation fee for Infinity1 and then delivery of the package at £10, and a set of 3 connectors for the router to extend in the rooms. Should be up and running by end of March. Current broadband is 1.2mb/s so 55 is a massive gain. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tommy Sweetman 480 Posted March 9, 2017 Best deal here. Sportsmania.eu. Every sports channel you can think of for £1 a week no buffering in HD. On kodi, ipad, whatever. Of course its illegal streams. You can get all the sports channels for nowt with Sportsdevil(if your not to fussed with the quality)and you dont need a VPN. I cancelled Sky Sports package last week,but if you are with them for Talk/Broadband,its gonna cost you £22.99 p/m to watch BT Sport on your Sky box. Ive decided to wait for Infinity to reach my area,then ill swap my Sky Broadband over to BT for a better deal. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If people had been informed sooner then they could have saved themselves £50+ :mad: Ah yes Steve but why would promoters care about costing fans money when their focus would have been on getting sponsorship deals tied up before the cat was let out of the bag? Even if this wasn't the case it is hard to understand the logic in the sport not being more open and transparent.... after all wasn't that what the fans were promised?

Shale Searcher 1,264 Posted March 9, 2017 You either believe me or you don't. You obviously have a higher regard for your opinion than I do if you think I would feel any need to justify to you what I have said. Maybe you have tried to negotiate a deal with Sky and been unable to match what I achieved. In that case I can understand why you might feel inadequate.

Tim G 512 Posted March 9, 2017 If you use Sky and you want BT Sport there is a deal on groupon. It says £9 a month but when I linked it on the BT Sport site it came in at £11 a month on a 12 month contract with no set up fee. It also came with free HD for 3 months. Still happy with that as it is half price and BoxNation is also on BT Sport. I was informed of this offer by the cancellation department at Sky and I think it is still available for another week.

Like old cine film that buffers compared to crystal clear HD. No buffering with sportsmania, and they cover about every sports channel in the world, with catchup as well. No free illegal stream compares. Fuzzy buffering saturday 3pm's or crystal clear hd with no buffering for a quid a week with everything else on top. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
