If they offered less though, someone else would come along and offer more. Is it Sky 'a fault that around the world there isn't the demand for our lower league football?

What I can't work out is what will be on the PL channel during say an international break or the cricket channel when there isn't any to be shown.
Repeats or pundits chatting?

[insert sport here] gold no doubt. I like the idea of splitting it out but not sure the PL channel for example will be priced that differently from the cricket channel.
Then they will offer some sort of bundle where you end up buying all anyway because individually it doesn't make sense to the customer.
you only have to look a the sky daily schedule now to see how little they have to show.
Depending on price id probably take the football, cricket and golf channels and then do the PL and F1 on a TV Now scheme.
I wonder in the PL whether the top 6 (as someone says) will ultimately have a dedicated channel and then receive more tv revenue that the other teams who are cast off to the football channel thus creating a divide in the PL?

It is, although to the detriment of most of the fans due to the nature of silly staggered kick off times and last minute alterations.

I once went to an Atlético Madrid game that kicked off at 11:55pm (i.e. five minutes before midnight).
