    Why weren't we on football first?

    Does anyone know why we weren't on ?Also,goals on sunday doesn't look like they are gonna have us on there either.

    I thought about setanta not letting anyone use the footage for eg 24hrs,but MOTD showed the game and SSN are showing the goals.

    I suppose it's because Setanta have the rights to the coverage. Maybe they won't release the highlights to Sky or Sky won't pay for them.
    .
    Suppose you have a physicist and a sociologist standing at the side of a field, observing a set of events unfolding on the field. The physicist does [describes] it using the terminology of mass and velocity and frequency of radiation and the rest. And the sociologist does it by describing it as a rugby match.

      Yea,thats exactly what i was thinking but they are showing the goals everywhere now.Doesn't make sense why goals on sunday won't be showing them and having a general chin wag about the game considering one of their guests is Paul Jewel.

        It's to do with the rights packages, the 24hrs business is correct as relates to sky, but it doesn't apply to bbc because their rights package gives them highlights of all matches within only a few hrs

            Just been on Goals on Sunday. Not very much though. Literally just the goals and a bit of a chat about our chances for the season.
            You can agree with me, or you can be wrong.

              I decided not to pay £120 for what Sky used to charge £60 for..

              Reminds me of when ITV outbid Sky a few years ago - what a disaster that was.. Hopefully it'll be temporary - Sky's coverage is way better than anyone else's and reasonably priced.

                  I think you'll find their fans think they're pro us. I don't really get that myself anyway, Andy Gray, who is supposed to hate us, has on occasion abandoned all impartiality and professionalism when watching us.... "Get in ya beauty" and all that. And at 3-0 the game was well and truly over, barring a miracle... Maybe when we win as often as them we will get as much praise? We''ll find out this season hopefully.
