Not so much, sod the little guy, but sod everyone. Companies have to look after themselves first and foremost.
May seem harsh, but there's not a lot you can do about it. Broadcasting companies pay a lot of money for rights and they need to earn the maximum sum possible for the biggest return. Nationality doesn't come into it. The only language understood isn't English or Welsh, but money.
Anyway, if it did happen and the BBC had the rights to them all and all 4 we're playing simultaneously, they'd be nothing to argue over as BBC1 would show the England game, BB1 Wales woudl show the Welsh game, etc...
Also, I seem to recall when two countries in the UK are playing simultaneously on Sky, Sky have screened both matches.
