[QUOTE="Largejanner, post: 611211, member: 68020"] Really? Your perceptions are just as valid as mine but SKY over the years have based their entire business plan on showing home grown sport to a home audience, so I don`t see how your point is relevant in this case. I sensed at the time that the loss of Premiership rugby was a huge blow to them and on the flip side I sensed also that BT Sport saw it as a vital part of their launch that they offer top class English club rugby. Two subscription sports channels scrambling over each other for the TV rights to show English club rugby is a good sign in my view. [/QUOTE]
