but of course, it won't happen . . just as the greedy football authorities (and SKY) will never relinquish their grasp on anything that says "sod the fans"

Not sure why you pick on Sky - BT Sports and Amazon Prime both have EPL rights alongside Sky, also i am sure you are well aware that all Premiership and European Cup Rugby Union is on BT along with all Australian based Cricket (Ashes tests and Big Bash League) and N Zealand based cricket (Tests and T20 league).
Sky have less and less overseas sports rights - getting to the stage where if I need to save money I would keep BT Sports and ditch Sky Sports.
Anyway it is the football authorities that are so greedy they won't take a cut in revenue by insisting one of the main EPL packages is on Terrestrial TV.
