FA Cup

DAK if the FA Cup is shown over here?

As our parochial friends at the BBC keep reminding us, it's the best football competition in the world so surely it's shown.

Yes, you need Foxtel and then subscribe to Setanta Sports. Foxtel don't carry it as Sky Sports don't have the FA Cup contract.

Damn. We've got Foxtel but Setanta doesn't even come up on the EPG.

I thought they did but I can't find anything.

Not going to be a problem for me as my team got knocked out yesterday. Oh well, there's the relegation battle to follow on Fox Sports :-(

Setanta is an additional subscription - $15/mo just for the one channel I believe :ohmy:

Re: FA Cup

Yeah, I pay $14.95 i think for the month with setanta, but it's worth it if you're a football (or rugby) addict.

Any value in ditching Foxsports and just taking Setanta?

I have Fox but most of the sports I'm really not interested in. It could be just my immagination but Setanta looks like it makes more of the football it has than Fox does over here?

The team that has lost in the semis or quarters to the losing finalists the last four years - Middlesbrough. I just hope they can stay in the league though to be honest .......

We don't really want to be playing any more games at the moment! A cup run is always nice (and Boro have had a few) but staying in the Premier League is what it's all about for them.
