Can’t watch tennis grand slams when Eurosport finishes tomorrow can’t afford another £30 for TNT

[christine+coleman]

Unable to watch tennis grand slams anymore after Eurosport stops tomorrow  can't find another  £30 for TNT ! on top of my sky subscription which i have only just renewed  sky haven't informed me  of this change  which is pretty appalling! Are we going to lose the grand slams as well ? Also won't be able to watch sport   on discovery+ as this is going to be part of TNT  !

Hi @christine+coleman   The decision has nothing to do with Sky.

@christine+coleman 

See this thread that's been running for a few weeks but note that this was a decision taken by the channel owners Warner Brothers Disccovery

Correct. For the reasons in the final update from Sky. It has the relevant information. 

[Bill051]

Why did they change the title of the of the link to the  thread?

@christine+coleman  Not really Sky's responsibility to inform you of another providers changes it should have been Eurosport showing onscreen messages on their channels like channels do when the EPG number are changing

Sky has US Open rights, while Wimbledon remains on the BBC.  TNT secured the French and Australian Opens, presumably by offering more money.

if it is only the tennis that is of interest,  i think you could just look into having discovery plus premium for the month encapsulating the french open and the month encapsulating the austrailian open. 

other than those and maybe the laver cup (spelling?) were on eurosport so when those torunaments are starting, to look at the options available at that time to take on a short term subscription to discovery plus premium.

yes i was asking to many questions like 

TNT 1+4 = 96 hours a day 

EUROSPORT = 48 hours a day

a total of 144 hours 

now only 96 hours with TNT1-4 

so ,,,

But they had red button content and huge amounts (including extra live streams) available via the Discovery+ app.

Asking the questions wasn't the issue it was the blatant disregard of the replies posted and how you responded to them.

How do you know that is the case 

The fact that WBD owns Eurosport I'm sure that they can schedule the two closed channels into 10 TNT channels that are available plus the added bonus of content shown on the Quest channel just in case you missed the memo

I don't think the 6 linear channels had 144 hours of live sport any day

A lot of the programming time on the 6 linear channels were dedicated to highlights, repeats etc

What's the problem with Discovery+. I always thought it was better than Eurosport for cycling.

[best+of+the+best]

Regardless of the overruns Live Cycling was shown might not have been on TNT 3 but it was available I think he was referring to this.

Maybe they don't understand how the TV guide works and that you can access Cycling from the Sports menu so you can select the Live Event you want to watch.
