Setanta : Wed Mar 25, 2009 10:01 pm  

Setanta are cutting their NRL games down to 1 a week instead of the 2 or3 they can show. They advertise a minimum of 2 games a week for subscribers. They are doing this for the next 2 months. Apparently they explained to a Wigan fan that they were covering extra Magners Rugby Union games. I have sent a strongly worded email threatening to cancel my subscription if the NRL games are not reinstated. I would like as many as possible to email them and complain, if enough do it could possibly sway things. http://www.setanta.com/uk/Contact-Us/

I don't understand this as it isn't as if they clash. Not many Magners games are kicking off at 08:30/09:30 on a Fri/Sat or Sun. Very Odd. I suspect more to do with the £10 mill they have just had to stump up to the FA for the soccer, apparantly got behind in payments & missed a deadline, than anything to do with the Celtic Onion.

Grateful for you flagging this up mate. I've been considering subscribing to Setanta just for the NRL coverage but 1 game a week aint worth it!

I'm hoping that the cut back to 1 game is temporary but it is worth getting for the fact that the Aussie version of Boots N All or SL Show is shown at 10pm on Thursdays.

The Footy Show is a great show and is presented by Paul Vautin & Matthew Johns

I've got some compilation DVD's from when it first started in 2000 I think it was and it's fantastic.

So?... A kick in the b*llocks is better that the Black Death.
