Indeed, Sky/BT would not get a refund for showing the extra games (some of which were foc on sky). They negotiated a refund based on the fact the product was inferior to that they contracted to. If it hadn't re-started they would have had an even bigger refund.
I presume they are getting some sort of compensation from EPL for this season as well, again EPL are silent on this.
