Hopefully a scenario unlikely to happen.

The splitting up of the rights for premier league games was supposed to be in the interest of fans. it is having quite the opposite effect. Suppose Eurosport did bid and win some rights you could have a situation where 3 or more channels -possibly all subscription based- showed it.

Many fans would be priced out of watching all the games available if they had to pay effectively 3 different providers.

i have too say as time goes by the more disillusioned i became with the sheer greed the Premier League represents. It does not really care for the fans just the £
If prices keep going up and up as is highly likely then our family will just say enough is enough and subscribe to the streaming services which offer much better value.
