How did your day at SKY headquarters go when they let you sit round the table to advise on this new TV deal
Several factors drive this new short term deal, no other potential bids (BT were interested last time) loss of value to SKY during covid, the utter failure of including the Championship and "middle eights" etc. We have had low deals before if you go back over the history of SKY deals with the RFL but I don't suppose you care for the facts.
