Not sure how many have Sly TV but their pricing structure in Ireland is akin to a rip off.

If you want Sky Sports, you need to have at least 1 entertainment pack at 20.50 yoyo's a month and then you can add the Sports package at 31.50 yoyo's a month.

Price of same package in the UK ?

£35.50

Brought to you by those nice people at Sly Ireland.

Does anybody know how much the pubs pay for their package with the pint in the bottom right hand corner. Does the price they pay depend on the size of the pub.

It depends on the area of the pub - bigger the area, the bigger the price.

Knew of an O'Neills pub in the UK that was paying £24,000 a year to Sly and £4,500 a year to Satan (this was last year). It was fairly big and had 3 floors capable of showing the TV.
