Actually thats specific to the World Cup.

It mentions after that "some UEFA cup games", which is clear as mud and would indicate they have lost some rights to another channel (Sky i would presume).

The UEFA cup is the champions league i believe now.

Irrelevant point again.

Just so we all get this straight punky, and im asking you specifically, you think its Ok for the England match to be shown nationally, throught the UK, yet the Scotland and Wales matches are Ok to be sidelined to a Subscription service even though the BBC could have shown them as well as the England match. Even thought that would mean that people who do not have Sky could not have seen a national team play.

It could be argued that the BBC have used all our money to buy rights to show Englands matches on the BBC above all other home nations too, but im investigating that now and i dont have all the info yet.

Although i expect a full apolology if you cant find it.
