Someone tell me when you order Setanta via your sky satelite, do they hook you right away, i.e. same day or do you have to wait for a few days, I need to see Cotto-Clottey on the 42inch not the fookin laptop.

I signed up for the calzaghe vs Hopkins fight at about 2am on the night. It didn't connect in time for the Fraudley fight but did just before the main event
Took bout an hour I reckon.

You can get a wire for as cheap as £7 to hook up your laptop to the tv. Hope this helps if you can't get setanta in time :good

I am confused.I understood that Setanta required approx.100 million to stay afloat and meet it's obligations,but this Russian has offered only 20 million for 51%.Does this mean he has taken on the debt as well or is he raping a company which is worth more than he's paying.The report is most unleading and doesn't connect the dots.Any help?I find this story fascinating as a North American.:good

I can't see how buying a business which hemmorages 100 million a year for 20 million is greedy. For the first couple of years it'll continue to lose a lot so in reality they're paying 200 million.
Am I wrong?

100 million is Setanta's reported annual losses.
20 million is what is being offered to current shareholders in return for 51% of the shares, not what money would be put into the company. Clearly a large injection of cash would be required to ease the immediate problems.

It's incredible to think that our small scale, forum-specific campaign (with it's poorly-spaced lettering), orchestrated on a niche sports website was directly responsible for protecting the livelihood of over 1000 employees and ensuring that millions of boxing fans will continue to enjoy high quality boxing coverage for the forseeable future.
Yes, we are heroes.

Hey any current subscribers call them and ask for the 3.99 a month deal I did, the said no at first, but keep on about being a loyal cutomer etc maybe ask for a supervisot, then ask to speak personally to a supervisor and they'll do it for you.

Look at this quote from Calderon:
"After I win my fight at the Garden on Saturday night, I'm going for Floyd Mayweather Jr. next, since he only wants to fight guys smaller than him."

Kos im not up for a curry though im thinking more along the lines of KFC style chicken its just 1 time i found Naan bread in the cupboard when i was up staying up for a fight and i loved it at 2am in the morning so im going to do it again with no curry

3 chicken strips
3 chicken wings

Can't think of much that you can just microwave along those lines. You can get rustlers burgers to do in the microwave, they do chicken, ribs etc. but thats all I can think of.
Gravy from KFC makes the meal heavenly

Thanks to Setanta to getting the support to remain in business.
Only a very rich man would take them on and make a big boy profit, as there are two more years of losses before they break even.

don't be too happy just yet my pedigree chums.
this new blood at setanta has 51% control, and if they don't see boxing as bringing in enough viewers then they may not invest in it {the boxing} at all..
good news today...but i'm still watching this space.

Chicken in breadcrumbs with bechamal (sp?) sauce (which is on lasagnes as well) and cheddar cheese. Pure perfection when you get a h-ot-shot version. :good
I know it isn't pleasing to the eye but it tastes absolutely tremendous. :D
I need Andy Kerr to back me up on this parmo debate, surely he has had one. :lol:
I have sampled Teessides major contribution to world cuisine ....probably the least healthy food I've ever eaten but very tasty. In fact I'll send out for a round of Parmo's tonight while wwe watch Cotto and Clottey. I doubt Bunce or any of the team have ever had one. True Northern culture !!!
See you all at 2am
More excited about this fight than I have been for a while.

I didnt see anything about Olusegun last night that would trouble Cotto at all. Cotto would stop him in about 4 rounds.

It seems to be rumbling on until the deadline to pay for remaining on the football rights, which I believe is tommorrow. If Setanta don't make this payment then the PL will auction them off to other bidders.
Who knows what this impact will be on Setanta's business model? Whatever happens, they need to change their business model because they cannot keep operating with these heavy annual losses?
