News Discussion and Football Blogging
There is a new tv channel starting up in the next few weeks on Freeview. Sommet Sports.
According to their facebook page they will have coverage of the Bundesliga, Capital One Cup and the Europa League.
Finally we may get some coverage of some of the stuff that SKY is not even remotely interested in.
Their promo video is here http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H-ZbUrc81i4
This was supposed to start a month ago. Am at the stage of I'll believe it when I see it.

Silly question but can you see this channel if you have Sky and not Freeview?

Pretty jealous of those who can get bit. A shame sky can't pick it up.
Could you not use a separate cable from your aerial/dish wall socket to the TV (assuming it is a digital TV that receives Freeview)?
Would have to manually change over the cable each time but you'd only be doing for the Scottish FA Cup, so not very often.
Edit: Some F1 programme on atm.
*yawn*

Good investment. Will actually be saving quite a bit so can have Sky and Freeview and a humungous flat screen TV with interweb connection and lots of refreshments.
Sunday evenings (7 pm onwards) in the lounge or man cave will be choice.

^ this.
nufc_nz - you see that phrase "TEST TRANSMISSION" in the top centre of the screen?
That means that what you are watching is a "test transmission".
In other words the transmission is a test.
