Thanks for sharing that tip Stephen. I pfaffed around with Oscam a couple
of years ago, and just gave up because it would not play nice with the Sky
card. I cancelled my Sky Sports sub and switched to FanPass (which has
truly horrific quality for a "HD" streaming service).

Knowing that someone else is able to able to do this, I'm now strongly
considering resubscribing to Sky Sport. It's going to work out to be
roughly the same price as FanPass from the beginning of 2018.
