Never seen any figures regarding ESPN subscribers but Setanta went bust presumably because they didn't have a big enough income - either from advertisers or customers.
I know that ESPN is much bigger but how long will they carry on if not generating adequate income?

ITs part of the Disney corporation Barrie, I think the problems will be when the new TV deals are up for grabs, Sky might just catch a cold

It is obviously a conspiracy against La Creme - surely the TV should go for the biggest crowd pullers which certainly is not that team from Liverpool - the red or blue one.

Well seeing their first 10 matches this season have been on the box on one channel or another and by the end they will have been featured upwards of 40 times, can't see you argument really, irrespective of where they finish in the league they will have feature 10 or more times than any other club
