    That's a good deal for the SPL, isn't it?
    Why the Sh*tanta title, or have I missed the joke?

    One bad thing is their channels arn't widescreen. So the picture isn't as good... That could be 1 reason why he thinks they're ****.

    It could be the reason but don't televisions have the option to choose between normal viewing and widescreen viewing these days? If that's the case, it wouldn't make any difference would it?
    I think it's something else mate, perhaps HibernianFC has had bad experiences with Setanta Sports and because of that he thinks they're ****.

    Setanta rents the camera crew, it's not their own crew so that is why it's not in widescreen format.
