Just read this online, basically Sky are changing how they charge for the sports channels, you can still have them all for £27.50 per month, or you can choose to just have individual channels or a mix. But when you realise that to have all the Football you need 2 channels ("Premier League" and "Football"), which is £22 per month, is it really that good a deal?
Also i'm not sure how this works if you buy Sky Sports via Virgin Media
I don't think it would tempt me.... we will probably only be on Sky about 8 times and the pub near me shows all Everton games.

Everton fans who just want to watch Ronald Koeman's side can now save money as Sky Sports launched their major rebrand and renaming of their channels.
Do you love to watch Blues matches on television but aren't fussed about the England cricket team's Test match fortunes or who's leading the Masters in Augusta?
Sky have scrapped their numbered sport channels and launching sport specific replacements for football, cricket and golf.
The cheapest package will be £18 per month as Sky attempt to combat falling viewer numbers with a branding revamp that offers a cheaper viewing package.
So if you're only bothered about viewing the Blues then you're no longer going to have to pay extra for a deal that includes other sports and isn't necessarily tailored to your specific needs.
Sky already had a dedicated Formula One channel and has now followed suit with sport-specific options for other popular markets.
Football gets two channels, there are individual channels for both cricket and golf while a further new channel called Sky Sports Arena will show other sports such as rugby and tennis.
The new channel numbering is as follows: 401 Sky Sports Main Event; 402 Premier League; 403 Football; 404 Cricket; 405 News; 406 Formula One; 407 Golf; 408 Action; 409 Arena.
Previously, new subscribers had to pay £49:50 for the cheapest sports package whereas the cheapest new package will now be £18. A two channel pack will cost £22, three will cost £26 and the full package is £27:50 per month.
