Re: ESPN, BT, Euro, Premier and Sky Sports news

Details of the EFL tender in The Times today, I got this from a post on Digital Spy

Quote:

"The EFL will allow the number of league games broadcast live to almost treble, from 112 to 324 matches a season in 2019-20. Up to 228 of the 552 Championship matches would be live, compared with 92 at present.

The rights will be split into separate packages, The Times has learnt, with a weekend package, including the play-offs, of a minimum of 114 and a maximum of 228 live games, and a midweek package of up to 96 matches. There will be a third package for the Carabao Cup — the new name for the EFL Cup — with all those matches available to be shown live. Interested broadcasters will be asked to stipulate how many matches they intend to show.

The EFL will also allow broadcasters to screen matches simultaneously, as happens now with BT Sport and the Champions League, so viewers can choose which live game to watch."

This is a game changer IMO
