The Daily Telegraph has an interesting report. How solid its information is at this stage, we don't know but:
- It says says no packages were won on Friday!
- BT is unlikely to be satisfied unless it increases its current games by at least 18.
- BT and Sky were probably not the only bidders.
- The Sunday 4pm slot is the key one.
- Citing unnamed analysts, it says Sky losing the 4pm Sunday package could cost it a fifth of its profits and a third of its sports subscribers.
