Sky Sports News ... 1998, with Sky Digital becoming BSkyB's first digital only channel. On 10 April 2000, Sky Sports News relaunched as Sky Sports.com TV, a move to bring it tie in to the launch of the skysports.com website. However, the name was soon reverted back to Sky Sports News. The channel replaced Sky Sports Centre, a news show at 6pm, devoted to the key events in the sporting world. The show famously broke the news that Kevin Keegan would resign as Newcastle United boss, with immediate effect. Presenters on the channel include Ian Payne, Simon Thomas and Georgie Thompson.

Newest Review: ... the channel is repeated all the time. Only good time to watch the channel was when the live sports are actually on. There play by play action called on the football when its live when the premier league starts its often back on. I like the fact the channel always puts the top news on the top of the broadcast. Sometimes though they carry on with the same story all day long.Cristiano Ronaldo ... more

 ... left Man Utd we all know but the whole sports new on the day he left was about him. Each hour for around 50 mins the story was about him. You would not get to hear about other transfers expect Ronaldo this and that etc. It would be good if they went inte...more

On freeview you get the benefit of watching this channel for free on Channel 83. To catch up with the top news of the sports world I tune into the channel daily only for around half a hour. Most of the news shown on the channel is repeated all the time. Only good time to watch the channel was when the live sports are actually on. There play by play action called on the football when its live when the premier league starts its often back on. I like the fact the channel always puts the top news on the top of the broadcast.

Premium Review Sports News or Sports Snooze? (353 words)

It's hard to think that just 11 years ago rolling sports news was unheard of and the reliance on the days football news was on Ceefax, the radio or (whisper it) the next days newspapers!!! Fast forward to the present and the growth in technology means that fans know the ins and outs of each club well before news is even confirmed and made official, such is the demands on sport and football in general. For all the rolling hours SSN churns out, it still suffers the same fate as all news channels...repetition. Any major news item featuring the top clubs is repeated every ten minutes or so with the news differing very little from hour to hour. ...  Read the complete review

Sky Sport News filled many of my days at University when I had little or nothing to do. I could rouse myself at some unearthly time like midday and switch on the TV to be greeted by the enthusiastic and well-dressed presenters that this program has to offer. The Sky Sports team go to great lengths to prove themselves to be a forward thinking employer and promoter of equality in the workplace with columns such as 'Alex Quinn's ( a female ) tip of the day' in relation to horse racing. This program really comes into its own around football transfer deadline day when they have a countdown timer in the top right corner and are always the first to bring ...  Read the complete review

If i dont manage to fit in a least an hour or two of skysports news per day, i feel unfulfilled! Skysports news is THE best source of the most up to date sporting news and is particular is brilliant on the weekend for the latest football scores, as well as, pre and post match information. Such as, injuries, starting lie ups etc. During the game the presenters are fantastic, they are emotional and as you know they care about their particular match for one reason or another you have faith in their opinions. Another, particular highlight is the run up to the end of the transfer windows, it is brilliant for keeping you up to date on the latest transfer ...  Read the complete review
