SKY have served their purpose and thanks for the ride, but we really need to be more than a cheap "filler" for a broadcast partner who is losing market share across the board.....SKY reported a 12% drop in Sports viewers over the last 2 years. They either need to treat us as a valued product or lose us.....and before anyone says "nobody else wants us".....I'd counter that 350,000-500,000 viewers a week on a paid platform for 30 weeks a year will be of interest to someone but we need to learn how to sell it.
I'm surprised Sky have not lost more viewers. It is yesterday's technology and very expensive (though they are offering huge discounts to hold onto subscribers). They have lost a lot of sports in what has become a much more fragmented market.
