My local sports club are contemplating buying satellite equipment with intention of using a foreign spots package - probably Showtime Arabia or possibly Nova Greece. We are aware that we will need a larger than normal dish and specific equipment for the Showtime option especially, but the main query is whether any equipment bought will be compatible with other providers should this one lose its franchise in subsequent years. Incidentally, the primary sports watched will be rugby and cricket though obviously soccer will also be watched. Any advice on specific equipment required will also be gratefully received. Thanks

If you have to change providder in future, you will have to change the card and box in most cases - Showtime in SW is a long shot, you will need a very skilled local installer to pull that
Greek nova not much premiership rights this year or next year but requires a small dish of 80cm
