Hmm, thanks Dan, what I meant is on terrestrial.

 

[ROVERT47]

Just checked everyone's best mate Google, it would appear not, gonna have to be droid box job.

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

BT Showcase is terrestrial. Freeview Channel 59.

 

[ROVERT47]

Cheers mate, I never new that.

 

[The Bear]

Is it just that BT channel? I get BT Sport 1 for free as I've switched to their broadband. Only SD but can't complain for nowt.

Think they'll be on BT Sport Europe too but Showcase is the Freeview offering.

 

[MARKakaJIM]

Don't you get all the BT Sports channels included when you use their broadband anymore then?

 

[The Bear]

No not any more. I think it's £10 p/m on top for all the sports channels.

 

[MARKakaJIM]

My mom and/or dad must pay for it then, I remember getting them for free when they first launched as we've always used BT for internet and we've had them ever since, though for £10/m it's wortwhile considering the volume of football they've got on now.

 

[The Bear]

You can also get it for £5 or £6 p/m through your Sky box.

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

You sure, I remember my Dad looking into just having the BT channels through a Sky box (they don't have BT Internet) and the price was ludicrous. Like £20 p/m or maybe even more.

 

[The Bear]

You can definitely get BT Sport for that price through your Sky box but I can't remember exactly how many channels you get.

 

[The Bear]

It's £6 for all the Sports but only if you are a BT broadband customer. £21 if not.

Danny Simpson has an excessivly over inflated opinion of himself:
http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2016/05/12/danny-simpson-tries-to-use-leicesters-title-success-to-have-puni/

A Leicester City player yesterday suggested that he is too famous to carry out community service imposed for attacking his then girlfriend.

But Danny Simpson’s plea to pay a fine as an alternative backfired and he will now miss part of his team’s title-winning celebrations and end-of-season party after a judge ordered that he be subject to a curfew with immediate effect.

 

[Kenny]

Wasn't the request to have his community service ended because he has worked in 2 or 3 different places and on each one they have been swamped by Pap's & Journo's, seems a bit off for the media to say he was just saying "I'm to famous for this shit". A fair request but also fair that the judge stating a fine would be meaningless. The curfew is a great swap as he does get to feel some level of punishment. As his teammates are being taken on holidays and piss ups he is sat at home playing FIFA.

Looks like JT is staying at Chelsea after all. One year deal offered.

Cellino wants to leave Leeds because he's feeling:

They're loaded with promising young defenders, makes sense to keep him around for mentorship and to put in a shift in a pinch.

John Terry mentorship? Good one Alan!

As long as it wasn't in general behaviour!

He may be the cunt's cunt, but he is almost without peer as an English central defender in the last decade.
