i assume its installed and fixed on the sky satellite for the free to air channels(the only way to get premier football on this satellite is by getting a sky box and sky card)on the other hand you can move your dish to either astra 1 or hotbird and get the premier football with foreign commentary,to do this you need as i say to move your dish or get a two lnb setup,this enables you to get two satellites from one dish(say free to air from the sky sat and hotbird channels)in order to view the premier football on the foreign satellite you need to either get a patch for your box if one is available(a patch is much like flashing a box)if no patch is available then you need your box to have a cam slot in the front of it you should find the slot behind the flap on the front.if it has no flap and no cam slot then you will need to purchase a box with a cam slot.and also a cam to fit in it(a cam will have a little slot in it to put a viewing card in)when buying a cam for football you have 2 options,1 is a genuine cam and card which you pay a subscription for(most often much cheaper than sky)or option 2 is you buy a cam such as magic cam or dragon cam(these cams unlike the genuine one can open most encrptions but not sky,a genuine cam will only open 1 type of encryption)you can then patch your cam to unscramble certain channels or if you can get codes it may be possible to enter them manually,but what ever you do it will involve spending money.if you were lucky and got a patch for your own box on the internet then you only need to move the dish(but thats best case)good luck with it.
