[QUOTE="Which Tyler, post: 893414, member: 73592"] Quick question. Am I right in thinking that Sky had already dropped out, of their own accord? And that the BBC's contract was about £4.5M between BBCWales, BBCNI and BBCAlba? So would this "significant increase" be over the £4.5M BBC deal? or over the £11M BBC+Sky deal? Could it be that PreierSport came in and offered £11M, but demanded exclusivity? Or are we confident that this deal has to be at least 50% up on the £11M? I've only seen it being called an increase over the BBC's offer; which would presumably mean at least 50% up on the £4.5M (call it £7M) ETA: FTR, I'd also be very concerned about over-reach by PremierSport - same owner/CEO as Setanta sport - remind me how that ended up.
