£30.50 for sky sports is a bargain - i pay about $150 a month for my DirecTV here in Connecticut, although I pay extra for Fox Soccer and Fox Soccer Plus (formerly setanta), and i have Showtime, although I'll probably cancel that now Dexter has finished.

Best value has to be the BBC, surely? I know people complain about the license fee, but I think it does a pretty good job on the whole.
dont think it will even be that good.

and i do feel guilty about giving sky £60 odd a month and knowing that money for footie goes to the prem. :Oops:

i suppose we are that way in great britain where we pay and dont kick up a fuss.

has anyone asked sky for a reduction??

i know many of us did that to setanta!! :lol: and looked what happened there!! :lol: :Oops:

i think £48 aint that bad, its about £75 to watch the "legends" :lol: of barnsley at oakwell for us 4 in the SNW household.........

somebody on the bbc footie forum who was a stockport fan (poor s*d!) suggested that they should let fans pay what they think the teams performance merited.

interesting idea, but i do feel that there would be one or two bankrupt clubs out there!

i liked the Rotherham idea of a Season ticket holder can bring 2 'friends' along for £5 each

Ref Boxing day and the prices, considering it's a public holiday and that potentially families wish to be together. I think £48 is a little steep, If the club had been a little switched on perhaps a special offer on a family ticket (say 2 adults and 2 children) at a cost of say £33 may well have encouraged more people to turn up than those who stay away. It would not overly effect the overall revenue as the cost is still equivelent to 2 adults, but by in effect letting kids in free you could encourage families to turn up as against sitting in front of the tv wishing they hadn't eaten so much!
