Sky Sports' loss of exclusive broadcasts rights could turn out to really hurt us in the U.S. As you point out, News corp owns both the FSC and BSkyB, allowing them to air games here at no "real" cost. I'm very worried that once the BBC (or other broadcasters) gets their hands on some of the games, Fox won't be willing to spend a lot of money for the rights to those broadcasts. That would leave us with a lot fewer live matches than we currently have. Excellent debut!!
