Looks like the streamers have missed out on FA Cup rights until 2025

No surprise at all big bear but l am sure the next plethora of obfuscating backtracking excuses won't be long in coming from the master of future predictions.;)

In their defence that’s just the FTA rights. ;)

That's where the audience is, 8.1 million watched the Chelsea v Man Utd game.

I'm not so sure. Wasn't this one of Virgin's arguments in the UKTV dispute? I think we should get this archive material via the BBC and UKTV following on from that.

Well lets see if we get the archive material via the BBC and UKTV as thus so far its all talk without much substantiated substance.

This though is a specific deal done by Sky. So if VM get access to any of them that will either be down to their existing contract or be dependant on a new one.

Interesting as they have considerable resources at their disposal but they are going to need them if they are to compete with the big boys.

All talk? VM put their money where their mouth was when it took off the UKTV channels from their platform.

Remember, the archive issue was meant to be part of the deal for bringing back the UKTV channels.

I think it may become apparent that VM already have a deal.

In the USA the streaming service DAZN has sensationally doubled its price from $9.99 a month to $19.99. Hopefully not a sign of things to come in the “low cost” streaming world.

Get used to it, if it can happen now what will happen when streaming rules the world?

All those separate streaming costs are getting mightily expensive that is for sure.

It's still cheaper than Sky Sports, though, isn't it?

One would expect Sky Sports to be dearer OB but there are many good offers out there if one opens their eyes...
