One thing is certain Vm certainly won't bid, and who can blame them the price of football is outrageous.

I don't care at all for Premiership football.
Wouldn't be surprised if sky invested into the shows etc then did a deal with Bt so sky get bt sport and bt in return get the sky entertainment channels olus some cash too.
