Fair enough, but considering 84% of the UK is English, with 50m as opposed to 3m in Wales and 5m in Scotland. Time is tight and so the majority would have to be catered for. TV coverage etc is a business like any other. I imagine the Angolan population in the UK is pretty small which is why they don't get much coverage here. Anyone showing a English game will get a much bigger slice of the pie due to the population size, than someone showing a Welsh/Scottish game.
