Between sky's and sommet sports delayed games via club channels you get to see a few games delayed (which you don't mind)

Not quite. The delays are just too long. Actually I guess I did care about live as it enables me to record it live and get up when I get up (say 9am on a Sunday) to watch it, I just didn't watch live. Guess what I really mean is that if there's 8 games playing at 3am and Sky only have 3 or 4 channels for live games, then it's no big deal for me if my game screens 5, 7 or 9. The Sky delay for Arsenal TV (and the other clubs) was almost 24 hours on some occasions, and weekday games required getting through full days at work without hearing the result.

So putting it the way you put it, the ability to watch when I want is key for me.

But yes, having done a season of that PLP is the best option this season despite some of the issues with getting it onto the TV. My main requirement is being able to watch every Arsenal game.
