Re: Sky losing interest. : Sun Dec 28, 2014 1:15 pm
Would anyone like to point me to a sport in the UK that has live coverage of its regular season on free to air TV?The BBC has a handful of live FA Cup games a season in football. Otherwise, that's it. The Premier League, Football League, Conference and SPL are all on pay TV. Cricket's Championship, T20 and limited overs competitions are on pay TV. Rugby Union's Premiership and Pro 12 are on pay TV.
Free to air TV in the UK has absolutely zero interest in showing regular league games in any sport. Anyone expecting the RFL to magically find a FTA broadcaster to take live SL coverage is talking absolute nonsense.
