Re: ESPN, BT, Euro, Premier and Sky Sports news

Not such a positive spin from The Telegraph

http://www.telegraph.co.uk/sport/foo...900m-deal.html

"Football supporters face having to pay more than ever to watch Britain’s top clubs on television after BT confirmed it would charge viewers for its Champions League coverage."

Leading media analyst Claire Enders said: “It is hard to portray this move in any kind of positive light for consumers. People are already spending very much more than on average on pay TV and connectivity in the UK than the rest of Europe.
“The fact is the consumers were served by having free-to-air access for Champions League games, and that will disappear.”
