We are paying £152!for Sky basic package but sky sports/BT sports and HD. No land line used and no other TV. Virgin were rude and just tried to set me up there and then whn i wanted a quote..NOW tv wont talk on the phone and just said look at the website (im not techy), and BT want £70 upfront for an aeriel etc. Any other places to look at for sports packages please or advice on how NOW works?

£152 on the basic package?  What the deuce?  Do you have phone line and broadband as well?

After my sign up deal ends (18 month contract) I'll be paying £107 for TV/BB/phone, includes sports/movies. So there's something wrong with your price to start with unless you have other boxes in other rooms etc.
I won't be paying the £107 they want (probably more by then) no way. 
Talk to them if your out if contract then you can terminate the contract, with notice of course.

Now tv is basically sky but cheaper and on a rolling monthly contract. If you Google now tv then you will see offers that they have - there is the sky sports package, movies package and entertainment package. I had the sky sports package for a month then cancelled and they then emailed me a half price offer. 

You don’t need a tv package through your internet provider. Just get decent broadband and Now tv.

Forgot to say - if you have a smart tv that downloads apps then you can download the now tv app and watch through that. 

If you don’t, then you will need something such as Apple TV, Amazon fire stick, Amazon cube and you can get the app on that.

Just like to thank the OP - people like you paying £152 pm (!!!!!!) are helping the hagglers get their 50-60% off deals !
Can't even work out HOW  to spend that amount with Sky.

quite easily I think if you include every channel, have multibox and BT sport and haven't negotiated a discount
