Good point. But aren’t most of the matches (and most sports generally) on paid/cable tv ? Everything of any consequence seems to be on Sky or BT Sports ? I rarely watch sport so I’m a bit out of the loop. I understood a handful of major events are legislated to have to be available on the BBC but only a few. Is that wrong ?
The “live tv” in the article above is just the stuff you need a TV licence for I thought ? BBC and ITV ?
If all the football fans are able to watch on BBC then all of sudden that’s a much bigger number for sure.
