Breakaway league...

[pieguts]

Sorry .

Are you taking the piss out of what I said ?

Kind of. You said everyone will be happy, who is everyone?
The PL has been “self serving” for years and from what I can see they again are only interested in maintaining the interests of the premiership clubs. Even the new UEFA deal does absolutely nothing for 90% of football clubs throughout Europe.
This is not about protecting football, this is about maintaining there position in the UK. Crocodile tears and hypocrisy!

You could argue Britain were hypocrites when they fought against the Germans, but ultimately it was the right stance.

The way Gary Neville and Jamie carragher have been it would surprise me if sky would welcome it.

Just BT sports now and then you have all the major players in the UK saying no.

If (and a big if) the ESL comes to fruition, I don’t think SKY can afford not to want a slice of the pie.

Everton are just gutted they didn't get the invite

**** off you clown

Very strange analogy mate. We’re talking about sport not world peace

 

[Fox Mulder]

**** off you clown

I second that.

Everton are a bigger club than some of the clubs trying to close the door on them..

It's disgusting and they've a good right to oppose it

 

[Fox Mulder]

The principle is the same mate..

Pleased you got it though.

 

[pieguts]

**** off you clown

Why is he a clown @Tobes (beyond his normal posts). It’s easy to say you wouldn’t be part of it when you’re not invited?

I'm just wondering about following newcastle falcons tbh..

Anyone else readying to try and replace their fix?

 

[Geordie Ginola]

They're negotiating with the Saudis mate.

.

Maybe but then there would be no way fans of the six could watch their own teams.

Yes, there's no way that anyone in this country could stream a game from a Saudi company...

 

[Kalman]

Also could the UK government just block any forms of broadcasting connected to the ESL?

Yeah, bit like how China blocks people playing Fortnite without a VPN

Why?

Legally. Nope.

 

[Geordie Ginola]

Why?

Can Saudi broadcast in the UK?

 

[Fox Mulder]

Can Saudi broadcast in the UK?

Well firstly they could just go to the games mate and secondly if the Saudis own the super league TV rights then I would assume they could watch via TV or online.

 

[Kalman]

In all serious, it could be blocked in the UK. There are videos and shows on YouTube and Netflix that are region-blocked for UK IP addresses.

Lol

Legally. Nope.

Not at the moment, but there's nothing to stop Bein buying the rights to the Super League and broadcasting it here.
There's also nothing to stop the founding clubs starting their own streaming service, cutting out the middleman and making more money.

 

[Geordie Ginola]

Well firstly they could just go to the gsvrs mate and secondly if the Saudis own the super league TV rights then I would assume they could watch via TV or online.

I don’t think the government would allow it to be legally streamed in the uk?

Im no expert clearly.
