Indeed, as the pricing shows, one channel for £18 or all ten for £27.50I bet they make it a ball ache to drop the channels you don't want.

or can i just get sky sports premier league for £18 per month?
Signs are already pointing that way after last season, which was the first season where subscriber and viewer totals dropped in a long time. I think (and hope) that they've reached the breaking point for what people are willing to pay, and therefore also what they themselves can pay for the rights.you would think that but what about the Main Event channel
I watch very little Premier League games on Sky, all the Tottenham games obviously but I really couldn't care less about watching a couple of mid table teams slogging it out.
Might be a good time to bin all sky sports for good as I can see every single Tottenham game elsewhere anyway and in reliable good quality.
Can see the Sky / BT Sports bubble bursting soon if I am honest, people have less money these days ( inflation rising higher than wages ) and it's going to get worse when the real Brexit effects kick in.
You could ditch your wife and pocket the sweet, sweet savings from that single channel package.Which is unlikely as I have to get an extra channel for the wife to watch Aston Villa.
What I save on bills I lose on labour.You could ditch your wife and pocket the sweet, sweet savings from that single channel package.

Would be nice if I can save money for ditiching Golf, Rugby, F1 etc. But I feel there is probably a catch somewhere...
I was hoping this wasn't the case but suspected it probably was...so we're looking at £40 minimum to watch the footy then really?They're not being very clear, but at the moment you can only get Sports if you take up a base package, so I'd assume it's going to remain the same.
Therefore, reality is that you can't watch PL football for £18 per month - you'll need to pay £22 as well for the base package.
It's not up to Sky, BT or even the Premier League though, that has to go through the lawmakers.Doubt the bubble will burst anytime soon, once it starts going down alarmingly they'll just open up the 3pm games and subscriptions will skyrocket again
EPL teams would vote on it. Last vote stems from 1960. With Sky's audience down 20% on last season unless the they drive more wedge from the world markets then it looks inevitable that the 3pm will be offered as a package for Sky and BT Sport to bid for.It's not up to Sky, BT or even the Premier League though, that has to go through the lawmakers.
Of course, a bit of lobbying and some cash under the table might do the trick...
How far did you go in the process? Did you actually cancel then get the offer to go back or did you get the offer before you cancelled?I just cancelled Sky and they offered me 60% of the full package. Happens every year.

Well, the Sky website isn't very helpful at all. Log into your account to change or select your new Sports package it says....so I log in and there's no such option, it just tells me I already have Sky Sports. Sharp practise at its finest. What ****s.
