The new Setanta Sports News channel

Just seen it for the first time.

Not exactly what you'd call inventive or revolutionary in it's presentation. A clear copy of Sky's layout. Embarrassing I'd call it but it's free so can't complain.

It's the equivalent of SSN which is free (now only on Sky). It's probably free on Virgin too. It's just a news channel and I doubt it's showing games.

SSN showed the Barcelona-Espanol game last night.
Is that the first time a game has been shown on that channel?

Virgin customers (of which there are a fair many) cannot get SSN because Sky are such a bunch of wankers. Virgin, therefore, gives out Setanta at a reduced price to make up for this.

Setanta Sports News may be a total ripoff of Sky Sports News, but I don't care. I can't want Sky Sports News, so this actually gives me something to watch.

nah, Uefa Cup games used to be shown on SSN, and a couple of other games have been shown on it too
