I suppose more games will be on the red button now with clashes with other sports, (Darts on Thursday for one). What are the odds the Grand Final will be pay per view.

I agree but how much do they pay RU and how many subscribe to watch RU other than forinternationals.

How much do advertisers etc pay

I can't believe anyone actually pays full pops for sky. I've never paid more than 1/2 their published prices and have even had it for 75% off in the past. I currently pay £35 pm for sport in HD, movies and box sets plus they gave me a q box for £20. People need to learn to negotiate

I wonder if sky will start showing a weekly championship game next year with 2 channels to fill.

I hope so, some good games in the Championship.

Why not just make every live event on sky sports, pay per view? Similar to the way now tv works?
