Default Setanta Sports DEAD

Quote:
It has been announced by the Board of Setanta Sport Holdings Limited that it has not proved possible to secure the additional financing required to ensure the future viability of certain Setanta businesses in Great Britain. As a consequence, the Board has taken the decision to seek the appointment of Receivers to the parent company, Setanta Sport Holdings Limited, and certain subsidiaries in Ireland, and Administrators to certain English subsidiaries.

Setanta International is not covered by these appointments.
Setanta’s services in the US will continue to trade normally.

Also, it has been widely reported in various media channels, Setanta Sports has had its agreement to broadcast 46 Barclays Premier League matches in the UK terminated.

This development does not affect our channels and other services in the US.

Setanta Sports in the US is a separate operation that has separate agreement to show the Barclay’s Premier League. Our channels and other services in the US continue to broadcast and our subscribers can still enjoy our programming including the Lions Tour of South Africa and the UEFA U21 European Championship.

New customers are welcome to subscribe to watch some of the world’s best soccer and rugby either by contacting our cable and satellite partners or online at www.setanta.com.

We thank you for your continued interest in Setanta Sports and look forward to bringing you a wealth of sport over the coming months and years.
From what i have heard ESPN got the rights for the premier league games and will be showing them on a new channel on sky this season. Feck sake more channels and money to pay

Only Setanta UK went kaput. US and Ireland are still functioning fine.
UFC is on Five (highlights) and ESPN.

Yes, I had SETANTA on my SAT TV Service for several weeks but, it was only a free trial. It was taken from me last week DISH Network wants to force me to pay even more $$ to them. I'm holding out for now....
