Mickey
Mouse operation Setanta Sports
lost its football coverage
to a genuine Mickey Mouse
operation last night.
Apparently.
ESPN,
who bought Setanta's Premier
League football rights, is
owned by Disney, as is squeaky
Mickey's ears.
Prattish
Setanta tried to take on brilliant
BSkyB but failed, or at least
it sort of failed in England
Scotland and Wales, elsewhere
in the world it seems to be
trading as normally, the rippy
off bastards.
Read
this
statement to their US
viewers for instance. Nothing
seems to be wrong anywhere
other than at home here.
"Now
could be a great time to sign
up with BSkyB who has some
great packages and more live
football than anybody else,"
said a guy from Currys.
In
other news: MPs elect
Leader of the House as a joke.
Democracy in most danger since
1689 says very very drunk
constitutional historian.
*News
International the owner of
The Boobs newspapers is majority
shareholder in BSkyB.

Setanta
Sports stopped broadcasting to England
Scotland and Wales last night after
failing to make contractual payments
to the SPL and Premier Leagues. However,
according to their website, they seem
to be continuing to broadcast these
programmes as normal in all of their
other territories.
Ergh!
What's this? Huh?
So,
if you subscribe to Setanta in Ireland
or in the USA you can still get the
coverage. In Australia too. What a
load of old bollocks. Who writes these
media contracts?
A
media historian told this moanpaper:
"The 1.2 million subscribers
that Setanta had when it went bust
was the exact same number that subscribed
to ITV Digital that pulled the plug
on their football coverage. I do hope
this 1.2 million people are not the
same ones, poor dears. Perhaps they
should stop their whining, go against
their principles and subscribe to
BSkyB after all."
In
other news: Westminster's stationary
office says it has run out of black
marker pens for the twenty fifth consecutive
day.

Setanta
Sort Of Goes Bust
|
Setanta
Sports went bust, but only
on mainland UK, today.
According
to it's website it continues
to broadcast normally in all
of its other territories where
it claims to continue to show
SPL and Premier League games.
Whilst
most of their British victim
viewers pay monthly, some
pay annual contracts and they
were told they wouldn't be
getting their money back.
What a rip off.
Setanta
is Irish: We say get all your
money out of Ireland now before
it's too late, including all
of their banks. This is a
rip off.
In
other news: MPs shout
at each other some more.
