They called it alternative coverage. So I don't know if you have to press the red button or something to get him anyway.
I have feeling they said he was doing evenings.

Be interesting to know what TNT viewing figures are compared with what Eurosport’s were. You’d have to expect it to be a minority of people that would pay the £31 p/m subscription.

As long as it’s more than 1/5, they’re still making more money out of it.

gogglebox is (was?) a reality televesion programme, where households would watch television programmes while themselves being recorded. the reactions made between the individuals would then be edited together to provide a commentary on the programmes.

A couple of former footballers have been called into provide "alternative commentary" on some of the sessions on TNT Sports.

I've not subscribed to TNT out of principle. If Eurosport was included with Sky Sports (which it was) why would I then pay £30 for TNT just to have access to Eurosport.
Crazy that they think people will pay for both Sky Sports and TNT without thinking they are being shafted.

Be surprised if it is 1/5. Hoards of people must have cancelled their Sky Sports and Discovery+ subscriptions.

I’m with you. In fact, I cancelled Sky Sports completely because increasingly I found Eurosport was the only channel I was watching. Rarely watch football like I used to.

Most if not all snooker is available on BBC or ITV or via betting apps (this morning I am watching via Coral website). So the coverage is there, its the commentary and quirky stuff on Eurosport which I feel I have lost.
So I can do without TNT for the sake of £30, just means I will watch in another way and they won't get the subscription.
I like a lot of other sports, so no way of cancelling Sky Sports.
