In addition to a Saturday afternoon game, TLN (Telelatino, Cogeco Cable 33) used to broadcast 3 Serie A soccer games every Sunday at 9 and 11 a.m. and 2:45 p.m.
I was spoilt by TLN and really looked forward to Serie A action. In addition TLN used to show EUROPA League matches but snatched them away when it came to Quarter Finals and beyond.
The Saturday games were taken away - without notice; and all-of-a-sudden, this Sunday we're told that the 2:45 p.m. EST game (LIVE) will be exclusively broadcast on EuroSport World. There's only 6 frickin games left before the end of the season you bastards.
So, here's an open letter to Joe Vitale;
Mr Vitale,
As a major shareholder in Euro World Sport AND advertisers on TLN we think your decision to take away the Serie A afternoon game is outrageous, especially given the fact that not all of us have access to Rogers and, as you well know Cogeco and others except Manitoba carry your signal.You're doing this at the 6 games before the end of the season BECAUSE??????
If alienation is what you're aiming for, you're doing a great job. You did it with the Europa League as well - and then when it comes to the quarter finals and beyond - you take it away.
Unfair and not very customer friendly.Looking forward to your reply.
Thanks you
If I thought in any way that a boycott of advertisers on TLN would do me any good I would start one but, unfortunately, I think the majority of people who would watch Serie A, are located in the GTA (Toronto and environs) and easily have access to other cable providers.
There are 6 frikin games left in Serie A and they snatch the broadcasting from us!!! They could have at least waited and given those who have access to Rogers to switch for next year - maybe not. FCUK U TLN!
