News seems to have come out that ITV and BBC are no longer allowed to join forces anymore, as The Six Nations seems to be set on going behind that paywall we all know and love called Sky Sports.
So this is now the Champions League, the FA Cup and now this.
Sure their board won’t mind though, with their pockets lined full of cash.

It's a short sighted decision by them, there's going to be a great deal of unnecessary upheaval. Caused in some part by foriegn ownership of Premiership Rugby no doubt.
I'll pay for it because it's the only international sport that I'm interested in, bar Stoke football is pretty much dead to me.
It'll be the Lion's that get taken apart next for the sake of a buck.

Pathetic if this happens.
I will have to find an alternative means of watching it.

One of the few sporting events I still have a major interest in and now I won't be able to watch it, thanks Sky.

I was talking to some bloke in the pub the other night & he was referencing us getting to the final of the World Cup in 2007 & I was perplexed. Then remembered I live in Bath & he was talking about egg chasing🥚 Anyway, Call yourself a sailor! Why haven’t you posted on the Sea shanty thread? |

I can’t see it tbh the unions don’t really want it. But they want more money. Plus the audience will go down massively. It all depends on How greedy the unions are
The extra tv money might mean lesser money from sponsors due to audience figures. Lots of variables
I believe itv and bbc are still preparing a joint bid
