I’m surprised that OB isn’t anti-SCART, as it’s French…

Re: ESPN, BT, Euro, Premier and Sky Sports news
Soccer AM cancelled
Quote:
Sky has pulled the plug due to declining viewership and a desire to attract a younger audience. Soccer AM will be replaced by the Saturday Social in its 10.30am slot on Saturday mornings.
The Sun reports that Sky bosses told the Soccer AM staff of the decision on Tuesday. The staff will be made redundant at the end of the football season in May and the newspaper says that presenters Bullard and Fendley are understood to be "fuming" at the announcement.
A Sky Spokesperson said: “Soccer AM has played an important role in our coverage of football for the past three decades, and we continually adapt to the evolving needs of our customers.

[EXTRACT]
Having already secured the rights to Major League Soccer in the United States, Apple is reportedly turning its attention to English football.
According to Bloomberg, the company is considering bidding for both Premier League and English Football League rights. Neither Apple or the Premier League have commented on the report.
Premier League matches are currently broadcast in the UK by Sky Sports, BT Sport and Amazon Prime.
It’s thought that rather than securing all of the matches, as it has with MLS, Apple is more likely to bid on one or more of the packages available to broadcasters.
If it does set its sights on the Premier League, Apple is likely to face competition from sports streamer DAZN which is also keen to acquire games in order to break into the crowded UK sports broadcasting market.

Re: ESPN, BT, Euro, Premier and Sky Sports news
So much for the tech bros becoming big in sports TV!
Sky is set to be the biggest UK tennis broadcaster again with Amazon's audience levels found lacking by the ATP.
Observations that other rights holders will be taking note of. https://www.broadbandtvnews.com/2023...return-to-sky/

Amazon apparently didn't bid either.

I suspect the viewing figures didn't work out for either party. Will be interesting to see Amazon's approach to the Premier League rights.

Perhaps exiting the market I guess. From what OB posts there will be plenty of competition for the bargain basement rights from DAZN and Apple. The league might not even have to retender them next time.

Think again, jfman.

[EXTRACT]
DAZN has reportedly made an audacious bid to broadcast the entirety of the EFL live on UK television starting from the 2024-25 season.
Sky Sports is the incumbent broadcaster of the EFL, paying around £119m a year for 138 games across the Championship, League One and League Two, the playoffs and the EFL Cup.
If successful, DAZN's bid would mark a ten-fold increase in the number of EFL games available to UK viewers, with all 1,656 matches from the three divisions being broadcast live.

It might as well be a completely different sport for all the relevance it has to Amazon’s extremely cheap Premier League rights.
£119m would buy about 15 Premier League games from the principal contracts held by Sky/BT.
