Re: ESPN, BT, Euro, Premier and Sky Sports news
 
Like most people I only have so much money to spend so as the cost of watching football goes up there will come a point when I will have to choose either Sky Sports or BT Sports. At present I get BT Sports bundled in with my tv package so it isn`t too bad but if that ever changes then obviously I will have to review the situation.
I agree it was better when Sky had all the domestic football and ITV/B.B.C had the internationals and Champions league etc

I think that we will see a lot of people dump the sports, it's overpriced, and becoming out of the reach of the ordinary working family, if things continue as they are I would be forced to have a total rethink on my TV spend!

very much agreed. undoubtedly bt will try to rob customers blind the minute the vm contract/CL contract starts. just like sky do. and yet ofcom won't stop this neverending tidal wave where the customer pays the price for living in the uk and being involved in such a competitive football market where each company tries to throw money to beat the other.

lovely.

Agreed, I am in exactly the same position and if I am unable to negotiate a new customer loyalty discount in October I will have a decision to make.

Did this 2 weeks ago. First time I've been without sky sports in 7 years. I'm a sports freak, can't get enough of it. But that's it for me. Shame but can't justify it now.

Because they know that BT Sky Sports customers won't be able to receive it.

Ofcom is not permitted to get involved in the prices that the Premiership charges Sky and BT nor for how much Sky charges its own sports customers so please don't blame them.
