flagrag 704 Posted January 30, 2018 One clear confirmation of the continued BT deal is clubs have the BT sport logo on race suits and team wear. For example when Poole posted picture of Sundstrum wearing a 2018 Pirates replica race shirt which is big BT Logo on it and having seen the Leicester ones again featuring BT sport. its just a case of they go public with the deal I have a feeling it will be around start of February 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

flagrag 704 Posted February 3, 2018 I have heard the same as Phillip Rising that BT will be covering The Premiership Live in 2018. Last I heard was that tenders for OB work had been done so not sure what the hold up is Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

PHILIPRISING 7,298 Posted February 3, 2018 ALSO a limited production budget which determined the. number of meetings they covered. Probably the same number this year albeit with an earlier start 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

HertsRacer 222 Posted February 3, 2018 Interesting article in the Daily Mail today that BT is preparing to give up their right to show Premier League football due to losing over 5000 subscribers as a result of having to raise prices to the customer to pay for it. Though they will be bidding in this years auction for future rights, they said they wouldn't go beyond the price they thought it was worth to BT, and that BT would still succeed without showing the Premier League. If this happens might it mean that more money could be available to spend on the other sports in their portfolio? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
