Re: Discovery take over Eurosport
It's only a matter of time a third provider will enter the bidding for PL rights and get some of the rights. Sky sports with reduced premier league games won't decrease their subscription prices and would hark on about PGA tour golf, WWE wrestling and 50 Premier league games. BT Sports if they had reduced coverage would just bang their drum about the rights they hold whilst the new provider would smack on a ten pound a month fee as well.

Its inevitable that another 3rd provider will enter the game shortly and prices will go up even further. It's utterly depressing how expensive football has got since they forced the rights to be split up.

Great for greedy premier league, great for other sports providers to make money, horrible decision for the customer
