Er ... but SKY have won the right and have paid a record amount of cash to show the games already for next season ..... sounds utter bollox to me if you are reffering to the British broadcasting

EDIT: Oh New Zealand ... carry on

I dont often watch New Zealand TV, even on rivers.

Oh New Zealand, love the place. If your into fly fishing, surfing and skiing and watching the premiere league at ungodly hours of the morning it's the place for you.

It wouldn't suprise me if the likes of Abu Dhabi & the Qataris etc, buy up the football rights around the world.

It's the logical next step & would put the powers that be in FIFA & UEFA, plus the likes of Rumenigge & Gill, in a very difficult situation.

Sometimes we're good and sometimes we're bad but when we're good, at least we're much better than we used to be and when we are bad we're just as bad as we always used to be, so that's got to be good hasn't it?
