What you need is a PHP-based RSS aggregator. Here's one I found on Google: http://www.feedforall.com/free-php-script.htm

there is probably some way of doing it using php, but surely this would be illegal, as you are simply doing virtually the same as copying and pasting content from the other website

no, because your allowed to put sky sports news etc on your site so long as you leave source : skysports on

no it is not illegal, most sites put up rss feeds so that other sites can use them. BBC for example were told to do this by the broadcasting watchdog to ensure other people get the benefit from their service.

If you know PHP and just want something that is already written to pull in/cache the feed so you can use it I suggest http://magpierss.sourceforge.net/ If you don't know PHP you should look for something more user friendly.
