If you press Home on your remote, there should be a banner at the bottom saying that Sky Sports is free this weekend. :)
 
well its been on all weekend but as hubby said hardly any decent games on! no prem games i think all rubbish - but that is not going to get people to purchase that channels if al lthey show on the free weekend is toot lol!
 
They certainly are not daft. lol

I knew that the free weekend would've not fallen last week because the WWE: Night Of Champions Pay-Per-View was being shown for free on Sky Sports 1 and Sky Sports 1 HD. My younger brother was watching Sky Sports just for a few minutes and then changed the channel so had a feeling nothing "special" was going to be shown...
 
i still need to watch Night of Champions aint had time to download it, was a boring weekend to be honest, would have been best if the offer was not free. stupid Sky
