There is NO contract associated with the offer.. There are slight variations for Ireland/Northern Ireland and Freeview on the offer, but as a whole its all the same deal.
Thanks for that Achilles . I seem to rememver the Maussa performance being a decent one but a lot of people thought it was poor , it'll be good to get a chance to see that fight again .
IMO fighting on setanta is going to hurt ricky hatton`s profile in the uk . if he wants legacy he should have signed his fights to bbc or itv , even channel 4 or 5. if he wants money only , and obviously that is the path her has gone down , then its highest bidder and **** who watches.
I heard the BBC offered money aswel as sky, but he chose to go with Setanta... I think he should have took a pay cut and gone wioth the bbc...
Something to note is that the Hatton v Maussa fight is freeview so presumely all the other things in lead up to the fight are too . So those of you without Setanta can see all the things in the lead up , just not the fight itself . Edit:Not all of these are free . I'll post up a complete timetable of free/subscribed stuff and when repeats are on in a few minutes .
:good out of the 6 million households who have sky i doubt even 5 % have even heard of setanta let alone subscribe.
did setanta show dublin v meath today ? or is that still on rte. i listened on rte radio over here , although it was not the main game .
I think your wrong there mate anyone from scotland will have heard of setanta as thats were all the live scottish football games are shown and just about every pub has setanta advertised and from next season or the 1 after some english prem games will be shown on it too
Right , after looking through the EPG we have : Freeview: Monday: Ricky Hits Vegas: 19:00 , 21:30 , 23:00 . I'm not sure if this is a short build up programme that is new every day or if it's a short documentary . It's only 20 mins long . Ricky Hatton v Carlos Maussa: 19:50 Tuesday: Ricky Hits Vegas: 12:30 , 19:30 , 21:30 , 23:00 Hatton v Maussa: 12:50 Corrales v Castillo I: 19:50 Wednesday: Ricky Hits Vegas: 12:30 , 19:30 , 23:00 Corrales v Castillo I: 12:50 Warriors , a build up programme about Hatton and Castillo: 19:50 Hatton v Maussa 21:35 Thursday: Ricky Hits Vegas: 12:30 , 19:30 , 23:00 Warriors:12:50 Hatton v Maussa: 13:50 Friday: Ricky Hits Vegas: 12:00 , 19:30 , 23:00 Warriors: 19:00 Saturday: Ricky Hits Vegas:16:30 Warriors:17:00 and for those of us subscribed to Setanta we also get: Wednesday: Corrales v Castillo II: 20:20 Cotto v Judah: 23:20 Thursday: Corrales v Castillo II: 13:20 Ricky Hatton Hits Las Vegas- a documentary presumely different from that 20 minute programme(which I'm guessing is a build up programme) . This lasts an hour and a half : 23:30 Friday: Hatton v Collazo 18:00 Saturday: Live- Ricky Hits Vegas , 30 min build up programme: 19:30 Proper Build up:23:00 Undercard Starts:00:00 Main Event: Anytime between 3:30-4:30 I'd say .
BigEars do you mean the people who aren't signed up to Setanta still get to see the small documentaries?
