They might have the money but they certainly ain't got the nous.

If anything that list of games on BT will now make negotiations go carry the channels clearer. VM can argue that the value to its customers is reduced so the price they will pay will be more realistic.

Because BT only have 18 decent games, looks like they've used more than half before 2014.

I'm going off a game being a decent one by it having a T4 team in it (or Liverpool), making Norwich/Villa the only pick from their 20 far lesser games.

Frankly, they're no better than the selection ESPN used to get. Where's the Manchester derby, Chelsea v Man U, Arsenal v Spurs, Man U v Arsenal, Liverpool v Man U, Chelsea v Man City, etc etc? They're all on Sky. And the biggest footie fans often miss those Saturday lunchtime kick offs as they're off to watch local matches for real at 3pm ...

Eh?

Ohh..biggest footie fans, I take it you mean the guys with 5 bellies that dance with their shirts off during the game.

Yes, the biggest may well be at the 3pm games, well spotted

Ha ha. No, I meant people who move off the couch and go to the grounds. I'm a season ticket holder and can't recall the last Saturday midday game I was at home to see on the TV.

Personally I find BT's offering a bit underwhelming and based on that list of fixtures alone I'd not be fussed if we get BT or not.

If Sky still get the lions share of the games, rugby, Ryder Cup, etc then that's fine with me. I'll miss the Scottish Footy and Baseball from ESPN, but lets be honest if I'm desperate to see any of that stuff there are ways and means. :angel:

Who is with me? :D
