"BT Sport, who have taken the Champions League from Sky, will want at least three packages out of the current seven, and Sky cannot afford to lose any Premier League football." BT is said to be keen on the idea.

Bad idea if true.
Scottish football try that way back in 1998 with they deal at the time with Sky Sports.
It was fine 90% of the time.
But when Sky broadcast an game with Celtic VS Rangers in May 1999 - When Rangers won the SPL at Celtic Park. World War 3 started.
