Cable Forum - General ESPN, BT, Euro, Premier and Sky Sports news

Watching the draw for the League Cup on Sky last night I was puzzled as to why Crystal Palace weren't in the pot of teams playing in Europe? Can anyone explain it?

On Sky Sports just before the draw was made the presenter said they weren't in that pot because the Conference European League Phase games don't start until October.

Ok missed that! Not surprising as complicated draw for me!

Great news for NFL fans.
2 regular season games at 6 pm and 2/3 games at 9 pm on Sky sports ,Thursday night and Monday night games, plus red zone, all playoff games and the Super bowl.
If you add the two games to be shown on Sunday by 5 every week, this all adds up to the best NFL TV coverage ever in this country.

Makes you wonder who will still subscribe to NFL Gamepass at it's current cost.

Paramount’s deal would give them every Champions League game live in the UK other than the first pick of Tuesday night matches

which goes to Amazon

TNT sport UK severely devaluated with this change. Of course it's the paying public getting shafted with yet another Bill (yes I know about those who use other sources which becomes more valid when you get this news)

Skydance (David Ellison) acquired Paramount back in August

They seemingly want to acquire Warner Bros Discovery, they already made 3 offers.

Presumably Paramount+ will become more expensive.
Its just £7.99 a month atm (with ads) or £10.99 for "Premium".
You also get it free for a year on Sky Q, if you have Sky Movies.

You can't even rock up at the turnstiles now with cash in hand if you find you can attend at short notice.

As of next year, "tickets" have to be on your phone (at Premiership matches).
