For all who didn't get tickets to the Olympics.

[BBH]

There has been a lot of talk about having to follow it on TV but I'm not sure how much coverage, read little if any, equestrian sports will get.

Terrestrial TV shows little anyway and even with Sky and the number of sports to cover i'm thinking minority sports like equestrian, archery etc will hardly figure.

Any thoughts and do you think it worth getting sky if there's likely to be none or nominal equestrian coverage.

Any thoughts.

I'll watch this post with interest as I am thinking along the same lines. Getting Sky is one thing......but there seems to be so many different packages that I'm sure I'd end up signing up for the wrong one. :O

The trouble seems to be that even now the horse sport is on sky 2, 3 & 4 depending what else has priority and to get sky 4 you have to buy everything else before that so the full package is really dear just to see the bit of sport thats on.

I know someone on a previous post thought you could get a sky basic package and then upgrade for the month covering the Olympics and then cancel but that seems a lot of hassle and expense if you have to install it etc before knowing what coverage if any equestrianism will get.
