Interesting Slice of Premiership-Related Stories to Read

The Guardian reporter Lestyn George has written an interesting article about Setanta Sports from a business perspective. Among the several interesting facts in the story is witnessing a conversation with a Sky Sports presenter (see Sky Sports Anticipating Exodus of Commentators to Setanta?), how many former Sky employees work at the Irish broadcaster, and what percentage of estimated homes will have Setanta by 2009.

Fellow Guardian reporter Paul Wilson questions whether Everton should return to playing at Anfield instead of moving to Kirkby as a solution to their Goodison Park “woes.”
