Abu Dhabi HD Football Coverage

[ormy1]

Thinking of buying a Abu Dhabi Subs Card Complete with Dedicated Receiver.
Seen on a website for 500 Euros. Seem to be showing all 380 EPL games in HD. Does anyone have one and is commentary in english. I also have a thread open on Tring, but this seems a better alternative as Tring is £290 + Conax Cam and you don't get anything in HD. Any comments appreciated.......

ormy1:

your answer is massive - you are probably looking 3m +

google "abu dhabi sport uk" without the "" and read the first hit.
He gets breakup and is down south with a 2.4m channel master!

I am woking in Jeddah for a couple of years, we have had the AD Sports card and box for a few weeks Football & F1 excelent, the games are rerun all week on about 4 channels and they show old games on one of the other channels

I think the suppliers are really milking the price, the ones we bought (my mate and myself) from the dish market in Jeddah were 1000 SR which is about 160GBP I know the suppliers have to make money but to mark up from 160GBP to 500euros seems a bit much

this is the case with most of the suppliers. i was in tunisia a few years ago and an art card from a sat shop was about 40 dinar (£20) at the time. £120 here on some sites.

I have been told this channel is also at 7w a smaller dish should pull in a signal hopefully smaller than 3m+
