Other solution, allow clubs to negotiate their own club's tv deal. Would suit some, rest can whistle.

There you go, two suggestions

The point was more that, in reply to Den's post, I can't really understand why Sky and BT are presenting their programming in the way that they are when the clubs are contractually obliged to provide an alternative, presumably at the request of those very broadcasters who are ignoring it.

Why are they ignoring it was my question, not why are the clubs being made to do it.
