TNT have not gone broke but are in transition they will likely end up being online only as DMax like the rest of Europe. The Sky sports announcement this evening was meant to be in the morning but as usual UK newspapers couldn’t wait to break the news . As others have said it may be worth Future Speedway ventures going back to TNT to see if they are interested in broadcasting Speedway if the sport part funded the production costs . The CL announcement is a shock we were confident at Sky that we had the lower European competitions which actually features more UK clubs than the CL. However it was thought that TNT would retain the CL as there offer was a substantial increase on the last deal but Paramount have gone even higher 

Wasn't so long ago when they took over EUROSPORT. Since then, All TNT have done is lose broadcasting rights all over the place.

One over the eight is nine lol

On the basis that TNT haven't gone broke and that the Channel will still exist.   Granted TNT may not like British Speedway but when you're running a Channel that's behind a pay wall, You'll need to produce content otherwise you won't get subscribers. Future Speedway Ventures and the BSPL do need to get in contact with TNT to explore the situation as they may have rejected the initial chance to renew the British Speedway contract due to them being invovled in a bidding war over UEFA Club Competition rights where the price was was soaring. Now that they've officially lost that bidding war, They will have a lot of money left to spend. Future Speedway Ventures and the BSPL will be desperate for a TV deal and they'll take any offer presented to them and TNT will be desperate for content after losing various rights to various Sports, Therefore they can get some easy content for peanuts when it comes to British Speedway.

It is if the one left without a team is potentially GBs most promising prospect  Pickering should not be allowed to drop back down to the Championship if it means a Brit misses out on a place

Aye, he was a proper character, chatted to everyone. We'll miss him.
