This weekend sports fans will be able to watch the Premiership game between Arsenal & Manchester United in 3D!

Sky Sports is broadcasting the match to selected pubs in the UK, and punters will need to don special glasses to see it in 3D [Insert Beer Goggles gag here]. There is no word if these goggles will be in team colours.

All this is the the prelude to Sky launching their own 3D channel, and from April they will be delivering 3D tellys to hundreds of pubs and will broadcast a premier League match every weekend (closely followed by every Monday, Tuesday & Thursday no doubt)

Sky is banking on 3D TVs becoming available later this year, and when they do they’ll roll out a dedicated 3D channel for HD subscribers. There’s no word on how much this 3D channel will cost, or how much the TVs will cost so I’m applying the saying “If you have to ask, you can’t afford it”
