After limiting the viewing for the European cup this year, genius

Premier Sports have the league that *every* other home nation takes part in. Along with the South Africans and the Italians... If anything, Prem being on TNT is the exception to rule...

It massively reduces its exposure the fact that the other competitions are on a minority channel doesn’t alter that fact

It’s almost as if the people who make strategic decisions for the sport are entirely inept and have no idea how to create demand

After 20 years of cricket being behind a paywall I can report that the number of people playing who didn't grow up with free to air is not high.
Most minority sports would kill for the exposure of the 6Ns.

Yeah it's not very good news for that. I don't think people know the drop from FTA to pay wall.

And for £10m extra as well. If you're going to sell your soul, at least get a good price for it...
