    I'll go check my TV to see if I have either of those, do you need to pay for them?

    GOL TV you have to pay extra, but I think it's like 5 bucks for a couple of extra channels (including gol tv).</p>

    <div class='quotetop'>QUOTE (Denny Crane)</div><div class='quotemain'>

    fox soccer channel, FSC.</p>

    Petey tells me there's no commercials. I don't think they have regular timeouts in soccer to have commercials anyway...</div></p>

    Yes. That is why there aren't commercials (no timeouts). But they do have sponsors. I think most EPL matches on FSC have Gieco sponsor the first 15 minutes of each half.</p>

    In the US there is FSC, Gol TV, and Santana Sports. I think Direct or Dish Network is the only that cares all 3. I have Time Warner so all I get is FSC. But I have been considering to get Dish the past month.</p>

    Football (soccer) has become my favorite sport.</p>

    Comcast here has both FSC and Gol TV. Setanta is another good one but they don't carry it.</p>

    ... and we used to have a EPL package. Few years ago it was $500 for the season. If it was around today, I would buy it. I am glad that I didn't start following soccer earlier, because I would be soooo disappointed to lose the EPL package.</p>

    I like gol tv more. I had setanta for about a month through globecast tv (from which we recieve channels from my country) and they did a lot of repeating (the other two do the same) but setanta kind of overdid it. also they carry a lot of rugby games. </p>

    So lots of recommendations for the EPL, but what about other leagues?</p>

    </p>

    As far as the EPL, why not the Tottenham Hotspur? After all they have a cockeral on their emblem</p>

    They are a fun team. I enjoy watching Berbatov play. He's a much more technical player, then naturally talented. </p>

    Reading is another team to watch. Beat a lot of teams last years even though they have no stars.

    The only team to watch are LIVERPOOL. After all they are the most decorated team in England having won the league more than anyone else also Champions of Europe 5 times which is the same amount as ALL the English teams put together.We are famous also for having the greatest crowd in football

    I'd never cheer for a team owned by Tom Hicks and George Gillet</p>

    In looking at it some more, I think as a matter of principle, I can't cheer for any of the 18 members of the G-14

    I have Dish Network, I haven't checked Santana Sports but both FSC and Gol TV cost money. Are there any free channels at all that broadcast soccer games?
