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 are again misinformed. The Highway Code is also clear about clothing.   It is here. Section 59 Section 59 of the Highway Code explains the appropriate clothing cyclists should wear in order to make it easier for other road users to spot them and help to keep them protected in the case of a collision. Cyclist clothing: Helmet – Your cycle helmet should conform to the current regulations, be the correct size for your head and be securely fastened. Appropriate fitted clothing – Your clothing should be tight fitted to prevent it getting tangled in the chain or wheel of your bicycle. Light clothing – Light and fluorescent clothing will help you to stand out in daylight and poor light. Reflective accessories – Strips on the helmet, as well as armbands and ankle bands will help you be seen in the dark. and  Section 60 This section of the Highway Code is all about cyclists’ lights and reflectors. At night cyclists must have their white front and red rear lights lit. Their bicycles must also be fitted with a red rear reflector and amber pedal reflectors. White front reflectors and spoke reflectors can also increase your visibility to other road users. Flashing lights are permitted but cyclists riding in areas without street lighting should use a steady front lamp instead.

      I am aware. You didn’t read my post properly: I was pointing out that people can wear whatever clothes they feel comfortable in. And that a moped isn’t a bicycle.

      Earl A…… You are misinformed. There is a legal obligation for cyclists to have front and rear lights. Rule 60 of The Highway Code
