Sky lost absolute buckets for years and years and it was only because Murdoch had the vision and minerals to keep throwing huge amounts of money at it and the greed of football selling its soul that eventually worked.

If Setanta UK had a similar backer rather than fly by night venture capitalists, they would have still been around.

Politely disagree mate. Don't say you're a news service when you're not. They either pretend non-Sky stuff doesn't exist or try and spoil highlights shows by flashing up results without warning.

"SKY SPORTS news" not Sports News Ian.

And I know it's not what your on about, but Sky News covers all the major sporting stuff that sky don't have the rights to, even when SSN doesn't.

That's a news channel.

Oh aye. I'd always read it as Sky...Sports News not Sky Sports...News

Suppose it's how you look at it. They certainly aren't an effective sports news service.

"SKY SPORTS News promoting SKY SPORTS programming" - Shocking story inside!

"Boxing promoter Fwank War*en uses his newspaper column to promote Fwank War*en fighters" - 'he should be strung up' says Police source

"Wearing a track suit and chewing gum with your mouth open on TV leads to baldness and demetia...."
