Don't bother!

The subscriptions for domestic Greek decoders are no cheaper than for Sky. (It's only pubs which benefit from cheaper subscriptions)

You'd also definitely need another satellite receiver.

Since your dish is pointed at '28.2 degrees east' (which is the location of the Astra 2A, 2B & 2D satellites, as well as Eurobird 1) it won't receive a signal from Astra 4A (which carries many European sports channels) at '4.8 degrees east'. While it's sometimes possible to receive signals from a different satellite using an existing dish (by using a twin or dual LNB) the 'footprint' of the satellite transmissions which you're interested in might require a larger dish. Larger dishes require planning permission, costing hundreds of pounds.
