my pal runs a pub, and i think he says sky charge by how much income the pub brings in!!!!!!!! he cancelled it and saved 15 grand. and his takings are not down. although last years old firm game was in arabic.
We only have the basic package so have SkySports News on which is fine with me for a bit of background. Could never really enjoy it if we had the full package anyway as our course is only accessible off the A1 and no way I would risk a beer then driving on such a main road.
We've got sky sports at our club and most saturdays and sundays the clubhouse is busy regardless of what games are on. I wouldn't like us not to have it to be honest.
I think our club would go under without it, the price of beer is a little less than a out of town pub so there would be no reason to use the clubhouse.
