I hate setanta anyway. They are slowly stealing all the footy from sky and BBC to make people pay a ridiculous amount most people have sky so leave sky to do their coverage and kindly f**k off

While Euro 2008 was in full swing, the main story almost every night from Sky Sports was Cristiano Ronaldo which ended up being a non-story. Yes, there was a reporter in Euro 2008 but the coverage was pathetic. Sky could have done a much better job if they tried, but they couldn't care less.

Maybe I'm living in dreamland, but when I watch a news program I expect it to be impartial. Sky and ESPN are very similar, I agree. But I tend to expect a fair and balanced broadcast – something I usually find on the BBC.

You say Sky completely ignore, or relegate coverage of, events they have no rights to, such as Euro 2008 and the Olympics. Not true. They had a dedicated reporter covering Euro 2008 along with a seperate reporter with Cristiano Ronaldo/Portugal. And they used many Sky News interviews on the Olympics which, I guess, made financial sense. Why send two teams of reporters to cover an event you have no pictures to? But it's false to say they ignore them completely.
