Do excuse the dumb question.


I have never had either cable or Satellite TV, but am finally thinking about it as going to the pub to watch matches can prove quite expensive.


I have googled, but am none the wiser. How do I go about this? Do I simply contact Sky or, as with broadband (e.g.), are there many providers of Sky Sports? Also, I notice that there are several Sky Sports? I only want it for football. So what do I look for, and how much should I expect to pay? And will I have to have an ugly satellite dish outside my house? A lot of questions, I know, but this is all very new to me.


Thanks.

One is never rat arsed Mr. Medic! The very presumptiousness! Having said that...have planned the day in the pub tomorrow for the Blackburn match followed by the FACF LOL. Can't wait!


But seriously, MUTV? Never thought about that. Presumably, it wouldn't cover non-United matches (such as the up-coming FACF where revenge dictates that I absolutely drop everything in order to watch Stoke thrash City ;-)).

That pub spills over with BLUES LOL! It's virtually been taken over by Blues! I'd get lynched!


Actually, it's very tempting, but I've already made arrangements with a friend to watch both matches locally (she's a RED too!). But thank you: next time perhaps.


Re. this:


I can get you streams so you can watch for free on laptop/pc


Sounds good. But what is this? (Sorry, not very good when it comes to the latest technology). Also, is it legal?

    • "You have no idea why"   To be fair Sue, it's blindingly obvious to anyone who has a conversation with anyone who isn't a Corbyn supporter. And even some who liked Corbyn (like me initially) found him somewhat flaky even at his most popular But let's say you are right and I have NO idea why anybody might not vote for him. They still didn't vote for him. He lost two elections. The second one badly (and strongly predicted but the stubborn old goat wouldn't budge so we we were stuck with Johnson and another 3 million PMs in the 5 years that followed) So even with ZERO evidence, we have our eyes and ears and brains But we do have evidence   https://yougov.co.uk/politics/articles/27022-their-own-words-why-voters-abandoned-labour
    • As I said, it was my understanding. I worded it very carefully. I didn't/don't know for sure, so clearly not a fact. And hardly an "opinion", which is something completely different. You have no idea what reason anybody might have had for not voting for him (unless you can point to some opinion poll results which actually asked people?)
    • Also, just to add, the threat to kill someone's dog and try to kick it, is an additional extremely unpleasant layer. I have noticed a lot of the burst water balloons lying around in the park too- that is not great for the environment either.
