[QUOTE="duncanb, post: 990547, member: 51286"] Can't see BBC bidding anything for it as they are high on the Government hit list for cuts self funding abolition of licence fee et al. So leaves us with ITV to bid on own not looked for 6 N viewing figures to see what value it may have remember footy is on at same time Saturday so big competition with sky sports + bt with 1300 kick offs and 5pm kick offs. Plus Super Sunday etc. They have invested mega sums in this so may be a slight conflict here not to invest to much but go for getting on cheap. Amazon maybe a contender but hard to see first real foray into long term contract being 6 N rugby ( uk) I am guessing Market is relatively small and not going to be a huge golden egg for any bidder although we all love our sport it's a minority sport here by a fair way and few dip in and out from my experience. CVC won't get a large slice back from their investment me thinks however only time will tell on that one. [/QUOTE]
