Sky Sports DEAL: Save £180 ahead of Manchester United v Liverpool derby – if you're quick!
It's a BIG weekend for Sky Sports. Not only is the new Formula 1 season upon us, but there's some of the biggest rivalries in British football taking place this Saturday and Sunday.
In total, Sky have 8 live games including Manchester United v Liverpool, the Old Firm derby between Celtic and Rangers, plus 2 Midlands derbies featuring the likes of Aston Villa, Wolves, Nottingham Forest and Derby County.
But if you don't own Sky Sports, it goes without saying that you might have a harder time of it trying to watch the football.
Thankfully, Sky has a rather excellent offer on right now – but it's not available for long – and you don't want to hang about and miss the action as well!
This weekend, Sky are offering a special package which gives you the choice between one of their 3 combined sports packages with FREE Sports HD as well.
So you're getting two channels for the price of one plus free Sports HD – saving you whopping £180.
The three package options include:
• Premier League, Football & Sports HD
• Premier League, F1 & Sports HD
• Football, F1 & Sports HD
All packs are normally £22 a month, but are all discounted to £18 and as mentioned are available with the Sports HD option on top which normally costs £6 extra. Put it all together and you've got your £180 discount!
You need to be quick though because this offer is only available until Tuesday and the little counter on Sky's website, shows there is less than 3 days to go before the deal expires!
As you might imagine, Sky insists that you must keep your combination of Sky Sports channels for the length of the offer (18 months).
Equally, this is on top of Sky's basic Entertainment package (£20pm) which gives you the usual assortment of Sky One, Sky Atlantic and numerous other standard Sky channels.
