Just been thinking
i know premier sports are keen to broadcast boxing shows, and ive noticed on there facebook they always say they are open for sugestions etc
have any of the small shows ever tried to contact premier sports to see if they would broadcast there shows. Just thinking as ive noticed they have shown carl frampton whether they would do similar small shows. would increase exposure and showcase up and coming talent.

Ordered via the red button and my remote with my girl in the room with me. She was reading but popped up her head up to see 'Thank you for ordering Red Hot' appear on the screen.
Are you not getting Primetime and Premier Sports mixed up? I thought Pemier Sports was essentially Setanta Ireland under a different name. Very close connections. Primetime is the read hot one.
Ummm - as for your first bad, the answer is essentially no but if you are not watching live and just recording their EPG's - then be aware..... sometimes you just get a blue screen for no reason. It seems like a successful recording but it is not.
I'm waiting for them to re-run Martinez vs Williams 2 cause of that. Sky plus cocked up the live and one repeat. They seem to repeat everything else a million times, but not so much this bill.

AHHH - yeah you are getting them mixed up.
Primetime (which showed the Froch fight and showing the hopkins fight) is a PPV channel. You paid wait for it.... a registration fee on top of the PPV fee.
I've moved house recently and had to pay for 2 of these registration fees.
So next time you fancy a PPV there..... not sure what would you rather watch Red Hot action or Holyfield vs Botha.... then you won't need to pay the registration fee.
Premier Sports is 433 on the Sky channell - its basically Setanta... and my experience of it is it has the same amateurish style when it comes to advertising (worst if anything) and don't trust the Sky box to record it.
