Only complaint i have with Sky is you cannot get a Sky plus box with their freeview.
They should change this.

If you inform that you are actually running a charitable organisation they may do something. |

If a bar/pub/club needs sky sports live events to keep going then their is something wrong with their business model. |

Sorry Mate was being smart, some seem to forget Sky is a business and our first responsibility is to the shareholders etc. I expect you are getting hammered as our prices are based on rateable values iirc and a snooker club will have quite a bit of floor space. Isn't there another pricing model they can apply for the likes of you (serious question this time  ) |

Isn't there another pricing model they can apply for the likes of you (serious question this time ) the problem for us is that we only choose to show the football in an enclosed bar area as obviously snooker players dont want tvs when they are playing. our bar area is approx 500 sq feet whereas the whole building is probably in the region of 5000. sky insist on quoting us based on the whole area even though we have no intention of showing it outsise the bar area. thats our quandary. |

Digi Alb FTW!
ITB, You might want to look at going down this route?
Cost wise its cheap to set up, a you get loads of footy.
Only problem is that its slightly dodgy regarding other pubs and that getting pissy as they are paying sky prices etc but if you keep it quiet and dont rub it in there face you should be ok.
