It may cost alot of money to get these TV rights, but if the demand is there then SKY will get benefits in the long run.. Just my thoughts, what you think??
Maybe, just for the World Cup then, atleast they could show more NZ Games
And please note, there was NO World Cup in 2000. There was one in 1998 and another in 2002 though...
In Australia every EPL game is live. You get viewers choice and you can pick your game and also can change anytime you want.

Fact.
With rumours of SKY getting the EPL back, should a dedicated channel be on the cards? Plenty of football around the world that could get live or delayed showing.
Well if they do create a channel they will likely put it behind a paywall and could put all football coverage they have access to, behind it. How would A-league and nix supporters feel about this?
They do it with the egg ball channel. Would not have to subscribe to sky sports as such but just the footie channel would be nice.

Thats why i hate the idea.
And lo, it has come to pass, as fans have been calling for since last decade on this thread.
Sky TV now finally have a dedicated 24 hour football channel.
Available at no extra cost as part of the new Sky Sport package.
Part of a revamp of Sky Sport commencing today.
Nine permanent Sky Sport channels plus a Sports News channel and ESPN 1 & 2.
Just looking at the schedule for the new Sky Sport 7 football channel which commenced broadcasting today, they seem to have taken over everything that was on the one BeIn Sport channel that was left on Sky.
English Championship & EFL, Bundesliga, la Liga, MLS, Copa Libertadores etc.
No doubt the A-League will be carried there too, along with internationals
So it seems BeIn no longer has a seperate channel carried on Sky.
Better value for football followers now that they don't have to pay extra for the BeIn Sport content but get it as part of their Sky Sport package.
Most people would have been subscribing to BeIn Sport on Sky for the EPL coverage.
Now they've lost the rights, I suspect too many people stopped subscribing, so Sky have taken the BeIn coverage under their umbrella.
A very positive move by Sky in my book.
All nine Sky Sport channels will be available from mid-August on Sky's new sports steaming service Sky Sport Now for $49.95 per month.
yes looks like the bein sports channel has just moved over to sky sport 7 (57) and any sky subscriber can now log onto the bein connect app and watch on demand content and extra games being streamed.
Since this just seems to be the bein sports channel, any other content (fa cup, champions league, serie a) May not be on “sky sport 7 - football 24/7” which I find interesting...

All football SKY has will first and foremost be put on SKY Sport 7.
I only have fanpass. I'm really excited about this though because you only get Sport 1 - 4 on fanpass, no pop ups, so I miss a ton of stuff.
Now I'll apparently get the 9 channels, the new news channel, and ESPN 1 and 2. Huge difference.
However all the info so far is mostly set top box targeted, aside from the brief mention that the FanPass app will be replaced by "Sky Sports Now", which carries all the channels.
I can't find that app in the app store, and I have not had any comms from Sky.
I've contacted them via twitter but that has generated nothing but "we'll check your email and get back to you". No emails yet.
Is anyone else on FanPass only? Does anyone know what the deal is i.e. when the app is coming? Apparently there's an email "with all the details" that has gone out to FanPass subscribers, but that's the email I still don't have. If anyone does have it, please paste!

The new app launches on the 14th
OMG one post and I got what I needed, thank you very much sir.
I've tweeted sky 4 times, DM'd them twice, they have sent me 4 responses in total, and yet have still not told me that simple piece of information.

Do they still have Serie A rights? Have only seen the Bein stable (La Liga, Ligue 1, Bundesliga, South American stuff) advertised thus far.
Quite generous of them to not charge for it the past few months, I thought.
