Setanta are cutting their NRL games down to 1 a week instead of the 2 or3 they can show. They advertise a minimum of 2 games a week for subscribers.
They are doing this for the next 2 months. Apparently they explained to a Wigan fan that they were covering extra Magners Rugby Union games.
I have sent a strongly worded email threatening to cancel my subscription if the NRL games are not reinstated. I would like as many as possible to email them and complain, if enough do it could possibly sway things.

Would be interesting to see the relative viewing figures for the union and NRL games.






If London is Athens, Yorkshire is Sparta, a tougher community and proud of it.

I've cancelled my subscription with em, not worth it anymore for what you get.

Sick to the back teeth of Kick and Clap, how can anyone watch it is beyond me.

Think all league fans should do the same till they play ball and get some proper rugby back on.

Same goes for BBC 1 too






If i was to marry, i dont know if i ought to, if i would, if i should , i'd marry a Prop's daughter, she'd go down, i'd go down, we'd all go down together, we'd be alright in the middle of the night going down together!!

They obviously don't value their Rugby League content - they don't even list it among 'their sports' http://www.setanta.com/uk/Our-Sports/

I only renewed my subscription last week after a couple of years to find on week 2 I have one live game.

I have emailed them with my complaint/cancellation and also will be contacting offcom, as I renewed with the guarantee of 2/3 live games a weekend.






The fans, the members, the people there.. from the day I stepped foot onto that field at the AJ Bell Stadium,I knew I would love that club for the rest of my life. "Jackson Hastings"..



Worry a little bit every day and in a lifetime you will lose a couple of years. If something is wrong, fix it if you can. But train yourself not to worry. Worry never fixes anything.

Mary Hemmingway, US journalist,widow of Ernest Hemmingway (1908-1986)


The Stupid Neither Forgive Nor Forget
The Naive Forgive And Forget
The Wise Forgive But Don't Forget


"I am not young enough to know everything"
Oscar Wilde Irish Playwright (1854-1900)



One likes people much better when they're battered down by a prodigious siege of misfortune than when they triumph.

virginia woolf (1882-1941)
