[ryansilkmen]

gud riddance setanta

[alslevie1986]

The channel that gave us the one and only sexy Charlotte Jackson.

[conners777]

setanta's coverage of the Blue square premier was brilliant its a pity sky didnt carry it on after setanta went tits up, come on sky theres more to life than just the premiership, There's some great football out there that fans want to see.

[dante81ish]

Sky sports has great channels but they really are boardering on a monopoly and making it extremely hard for other channels showing the english premier leugue, for example ESPN is going from 46 matches for 2009 season and dropping to 23 in the 2010. Setanta sport is the only channel that made sky see brown.

[pattymacable]

i agree these two presenters were so boring like the whole chhannel.

the only good thing was charlotte jackson she was so fit. and murray dron the guy she presented with was the only decent male presenter.

thank god the channel stopped. sky were far superior

[jsam93]

Setanta Sports were vastly superior to what Sky is or ever could be.

RIP Setanta Sports News

Nov. 29, 2007-Jun. 23, 2009

[playfulpaul1985]

[killbison]

[proudtobeacelt]

[applecrumble111]

7:34 I went to derby v forest 3-1 :D

[MrVillaHooligan]

Did that UFC athlete actually say that in 10 years UFC will be bigger than 'soccer'?! ....

What an absolute idiot!

That's the trouble with the Yanks, they have these shit sports such as 'American Football' and 'World Series Baseball'. ... World Series , what a joke . The Americans are the only fuckers who actually compete in it so how can they call it 'The World Series'?!?!?! Completely laughable!

[djdean0]

Setanta going down an still making a pop at Sky Sports News at 56 seconds!! lol

[natykegs]

i bet that was well embarrasin for them presenters.

[c3lticbhoy1967]

what where they thinking paying the spl 120m for the rights ! theyre never worth thatand im a celtic fan

[natykegs]

was it not over 5 years they wer paying the £120 million, i dont think it was £120million a year.

[playfulpaul1985]

could have got a better leagu for that price

[solo26sky]

These 2 presenters were awful, no chemistry what so ever. Always made me cringe when ever they were on.

The only reason I had Setanta was cos of the UFC.

Awful TV network.

[thedetriotmachinegun]

thank god their gone even when their were quiting their were still being batty and wied

[jonathanling7]

good thing its still alive in Canada

[thedetriotmachinegun]

their fuckin suck

[billybillyboab]

I thought that they just slinked off the air without a word, I didn't even watch it. Skysports launched and bankrolled the Premiership and their coverage of the league is immense. Setanta's coverage of boxing and football was nothing short of shambolic. They took the lead from Sky Sports anyway so why did thy even attempt to take on Sky? Sky are a multi billon pounds corportion and owned by the tyrincal Murdoch but there coverage of football is unrivaled in any country.

[TomsShowreel]

thats bollocks, talk to anyone in TV, and some of the thing setanta did on their football coverage was pioneering and had never been done before, Sky are now doing many of these things now.

[billybillyboab]

I am not here to argue for Rupert Murdoch and his cronies but Sky built the Premiership. If you are talking about pioneering technology, what about Sky's coverage of the Champions League, the goal alert system and the choice of 8 live games through the red button on Weds? They were the first to bring in the choice of diffrent camera angles, they have the best commentators and their HD is awesome though we shouldn't have to be extra for it as Sky customers.

[ycfc1]

for example the access all areas coverage of the Conference

[stingersplash]

good riddance to an awful set of channels. shoddily run, bad presenting. Sky really shows them up. Plus sky sports is comparitavely cheaper than Setanta and for a lot more content.

[redline6800]

Come on man, the guy is clearly an idiot for dissing Dzeko, who was just won the German Footballer of the Year award, which sees him joining the likes of, Voller, Beckenbauer, Klinsmann, Bierhoff, Sammer, Kahn, Ballack and Ribery. Does Celtic or any Scottish club currently have a player of this caliber? NO.

If you didn't know him, fine you are probably not as informed about football as you would have thought, but please don't make a fool of yourself and Scottish football fans again.

[celtdan1]

I'm an idiot for dessing Dzeko? He comes from a country that probably to most still is unknown! Yes, he won the german footballer of the year? And? Scott Brown won the same title in Scotland but didn't really get any extra recognition for it, and he did have a brilliant season. And I am very informed about football, I just had never heard of Dzeko before. I knew that Wolfsburg had won the Bundesliga.

[longrodvonhugendon]

itv digital all over again its the same fucking company you would of thought they were wise to it by now and it sucked balls too!

[Hooah77]

Craig Gordon*

[xxxxDre4mxxxx]

Although setanta looked good. FUCK ppv. I'm dying to get into heavyweight boxing as a fan but I can't because its bloody £15- £20 a month! just a MONTH! jesus I can't even just pay per fight. Fuck ppv and fuck all that shit. Bring it back to ITV.

[CopyrightOfficeWWE]

Watch it on the internet for free.

[celtdan1]

Actually, Setanta was giving a much better deal for their boxing. Sky Sports do a proper PPV Boxing package where you would of course have to pay for each single fight which isn't worth it in the end.

[charliewgooner]

setanta was the best channel :(

[CopyrightOfficeWWE]

Notice at 00:56 a little dig at Sky Sports

[britishteapower]

slightly ironic that the song chosen is "infinity"

It certainly got better once they got rid of the 2 scrolling bars along the bottom but in general the screen was far too busy.

[kbosquette]

what is the music that is played in this video?

[hoppimike]

I am actually not too in sports, but yeah it's a shame to see another company go down ._.

[joostisabelle]

13,728 hours = millions of minutes??

women are so dumb!!!

[MongTheMerciless]

For people about to lose their jobs they're remarkably calm. I'd have been tempted to slip in a few swear words or something.

[SteRDLK]

lmao shocking

[adam306]

hope charlotte jackson goes to sky sports news

[ebayaddict19]

i prefered this to sky sports news

[CHARON1314]

Setanta also covered the SPL. A 9 minute resume of their coverage of sports and they don't mention the SPL once. Says it all, really. Crap coverage, they won't be missed. Especially Scott Booth.

[Hooah77]

Well the SPL sucks.

[St4rdog]

And Bosnia is a nothing country.

[Hooah77]

Owns dear old Scotland in footbal (talking about the NT).

[celtdan1]

Yeah, it sucks. Not. Two of the world's biggest teams in THE WORLD play in that league. Celtic and Rangers. Can I ask where you're from?

[Hooah77]

Two of the bigges teams in the world? Be realistic man. Rangers and Celtic can't compete with Real, Barca, Milan, Inter, Juve, the big four in England and so on. Cousin was an important part of the Rangers-team, then Hull buys him and he scores like 5 goals in the whole Premier League season. Also, there is no excitement in the league, always Celtic and Rangers. Only good games are the old firm. I'm from Bosnia and our league sucks 10 times more. But that's not the point.

[celtdan1]

LOL! You're from Bosnia, yeah so you can talk. Actually, Celtic has a bigger fan base than most of the clubs you've mentioned. We may not have the players, the money or the league, but we have the history. And as much as I don't like Rangers, they are just as big as Celtic.

[Hooah77]

So what if you have the fans? No one watches football because of he fans if the players suck. And Bosnia's national team is better than the Scottish one. The league isn't ofc. Edin Dzeko is worth more than all Scottish players put together.

[celtdan1]

That's the best one I've heard! WHO THE FUCK IS EDIN DZEKO!? The Bosnian national team? Do they even qualify for the qualifying stages of tournaments? You're better than us? We beat France TWICE in one fell swoop on our home turf and in Paris. We were about to qualify for the Euro 2008 tournament but were screwed over by some Spanish referee instead. And infact we have very good players over here, I'd like to see how many Bosnian players have been big signings down in the EPL. Oh wait, none!

[Hooah77]

Hahaha, who is Edin Dzeko? U fucking retard, u follow football? He was the runner-up topscorer in the Bundesliga and was chosen as the player of the year in Germany. Milan have made a bid for him worth 30 million euros. Who are your good players? James McFadden? Hahahah. Check the standings u idiot, and see who is closer to qualifying this time. Only decent player u got is Fletcher. Alos Gordon before, but he is shit now.

[celtdan1]

Yeah I do follow football funnily enough, but see most people I know probably haven't heard of him either. I'm a retard lmao that's a good one. Milan? Yeah, that team that hasn't really done anything since the big scandal in 2006 and the team that were beaten 2-1 by a much better Celtic team in the Champions League.

[Hooah77]

Oh my God, you are such a retard. You British people don't know shit about international football. Are you seriously saying Celtic is better than Milan? Hahaha.

[celtdan1]

I never said we were better. If I said that then yes, I'd probably be a retard. In fact I do know a lot about international football, I follow it often, although mostly the Spanish and Italian leagues.

[Hooah77]

Well if so u would have heard about Dzeko. Cause everyone were talking about him and Grafite when they won the league with Wolfsburg.

[celtdan1]

Yeah Wolfsburg, they'll probably get relegated next season. Bayern just had a bad season, that's all.

[Hooah77]

Man you are really talking bullshit.

[celtdan1]

I'm really talking bullshit? Yeah ok, because as you are bosnian you know a lot about football. Hah.

[Hooah77]

Stop embaressing yourself man.

[celtdan1]

I didn't like Scott Booth but it was good to hear Ian Crocker commentating again since he actually knew a bit about the SPL from the old Sky Sports days. I felt the coverage was shit when Jock Brown and Mark Hateley were commentating because they were both massively biased towards Rangers and it's funny because Setanta's main coverage used to be The SPL before they got Premier League rights from England in 07, yet they stopped giving a shit about it.

[arsenal123454]

it was quickly becoming the #1 sports channel in europe, but since january 2009 it fell apart. very sad to see it go, i hope it comes back.
