We need to update the list of events that have to be on free to air tv by law, this should definitely be on it.

>with sources saying it breaks the spirit of a contract that states “best endeavours” should be made to ensure the finals are available for free.
How’s that breaking the spirit of the contract. If the contract says best endeavours, what have they actually done to make it happen? Sounds like they considered it for 5 minutes and considered it best endeavours. Uefa should tell them they’ll sue them on behalf of the UEFA sponsors, or otherwise get their stick out. Saying your not happy is doing nothing

And piracy will rise/ they won’t have the viewing figures they’re used to and bitch about low viewing figures, a drop in revenue and a rise in piracy.
It’s almost like they’re designing it to shoot themselves in the foot.

And then they complain how piracy is on the rise…
