And Southampton.

And, hopefully, either Leeds or Leicester.

I have not seen this being reported on the web:

My TiVo says Sky Sports Action are broadcasting United States Football League (USFL) live every weekend.

Jake Humphrey will leave BT Sport on June 10th ahead of its rebrand to TNT Sports.

Laura Woods is rumoured to be lined up to become the main face of TNT Sports.

Come on OB, it's Saturday night and we've all done this before.

The most obvious doubt is that constantly, time and again, when meaningful rights come up in the UK the "deep pockets" streamers are nowhere to be seen.

The EFL rights represented a huge opportunity to pin down week in, week out content. Over a thousand games per year for five years. Rights that would coincide with both the next Premier League and Champions League windows.

Yet Sky triumphed once again.

You’ve been saying that for the last 3 rounds of bidding for all major rights.

“This time next year we will be millionaires” as Del Boy used to say.

Maybe I was a little too cryptic. I meant that you keep talking about the present when I am clearly talking about the future. But as you say, this argument has been done to death. Response not necessary.

But the previous times you’ve made this forecast were in the past, so the present is those previously forecasts future…
