    You need a dish that's approx. a meter in diameter and a satellie box called dream something or other( can't remeber the last bit). Then you can buy ART cards on e-bay for 140euro or thereabouts. Apparently that super sport channel is very expensive to get.

    You need ideally an 80cm dish to pick up the ART channels on Hotbird. A reciever with either a CI slot or built in Viaccess cam which will allow you to use the ART card in it. Art cards are around 150ish euros per year and give you all english footie and some other leagues as well to my knowledge. The sat section on boards.ie as already stated has tonnes of info on this subject.

    Super Sport is part of the NOVA (greek) package. Yearly subscriptions run anywhere upto 1000euro per year, the same with the canal+ sport channels, they are also on a different satellite "Thor 1west" pricing on these channels is also very expensive. Around 500ish will get you all the equipment you need for Viewing art anyway.
