It was a quality channel ESPN classic no idea why they shut it down to be honest. The quality of the shows went down a bit near the end but still a lot of good stuff.

I'd imagine BT and sky would go for the programs but i can't see BT myself as they're more pre occupied with their live rights which is why they shut down espn classic.

Sky sports classic would be a great channel though. Does anyone know if sky sports keep the right to show all their old football matches from the early 90s or do they revert back to the premier league after the contract is up? Sky would have so much stuff from classic football matches etc. If they made a channel entirely for F1 surely sky sports classic is a possibility...it'll probably be $ly exclusive though
