Football's the wrong-shaped ball for me, but I guess this is potentially a win-win for everyone.
PL avoid the possible reduction in rights values, broadcasters get to renew at a small discount.
Back with the right-shaped ball, it's gone awfully quiet on the 6Nations TV deal, which I assume means that at least one out of Sky or BT is putting in a serious bid.
