Could that explain the free Sky BB for 2 years for Sky Sports customers and the promotion of a new European football channel , if there's any truth Sky Sports 5 would have considerably less football 2015 on. We'll have to wait and see all rumours at this point wait for an official announcement.

Den is it me or are BSkyB not dumb enough to launch a European Football channel if they were imminently about to lose the Spanish contract?

Yes they have made mistakes but this would be a bad one?

Well, they are not meant to be into content, but things can change. I am not ruling out a tie up between LG and BT - it's already happening with film content.
