Sky will have to add another couple of sports channels now after losing more content. Anyone know anything about these new guys?

The guy who owns Eleven Sports also owns Leeds Utd.

They might bid for the remaining Premier League rights that werent secured by Sky or Bt.

A sky sub is starting to look terrible value now compared to a few years prior. They have lost or are losing tennis, some rugby, champions league, some 20/20 cricket iirc.

As someone who likes to watch various sports it’s frustrating now as multiple subs will be needed for all the content formerly available with sky.
