    Buncey's too much of a loose cannon for sky. If he wound up there he wouldn't be the Buncey we know and love (for me that's the Buncey who walked past me at Calzaghe v Lacy and when asked him who he was picking he responding "Calzaghe on points" as cool as a cucumber.)

    Buncey will be alright, he's at the stage were he's starting to become an institution. Hell the boxing hour could probably survive an online show with a small subscription fee.

    Setanta subscription £12.99 per month or free on Virgin Media XL

    Sky Sports subscription [all Sky Sports channels] £26.00 per month.

    I'll be very sorry to see Setanta go.

    They offered cracking value for money when compared to Sky Sports.

    It wouldn't even take a tenner each. We could it for nothing as long as we can cover their debts.

    My plan? tell the SPL to **** off, no one likes scottish football anyway. (They could sue us but I say we just ignore their letters indefinately)

    Tell the premier league they'll have to pay us to show some of the lesser matches (seriously who gives a **** about a mid table scrabble (don't say the fans of the clubs involved, if they were true fans they be in the thousands of empty seats in the ground.)

    UFC has to compete with the other MMA promotions for the money and coverage.

    Adverts will be charged at market rate. The drunks currently in charge can **** off, sentanta have like 3 call centres in different locations (wtf for all they do is mess you around)

    Boxing will stay, the boxing hour will be pushed as it deserves to be, it is a flagship show. However Buncey will not have a money man who can bribed with a bottle of cheap whisky and who will crumble under public pressure.

    The thing is even at that price they didn't have enough customers to break even. Apparently they have 1.3m subscribers but need atleast 1.9m.

    I know a website where you can watch all boxing for either 99p for the event or £3.99 a month, they cover all sorts of sports and there all high definition streams, not the dog **** going off every 5 minutes
