I'd rather we went to ITV or Channel 5. They treat their sports with some dignity at least.

4 or 5...........4 did wonders for cricket when they took it away from the beeb.........sky took it to another level

sky would do wonders for the CC imo...........but i think we are still under the government thingy about events on terrestial

why do we need that law??.......everybody waches non-terestial.......you cant get a signal for terrestial nowadays on an old tv

I'd play one round first week of every month with the final in August.

Got all the big games at the business end of the season. Teams shouldn't be handicapped through being succesfull.

But that is the point, to do the double you need to maintain a level for a long period of time. When the cup was early in the year it was devalued

Only the final is on the list and has to be broadcast live on a FTA channel, so there is nothing to stop Sky from obtaing the rights. they could show the final on one of their Freeview channels making it avalioable to everyone.

I must confess I always thought it was the whole competition, but apparently not. Thinking on Sky and latterly ESPN had this with the FA Cup recently when they were first allowed to get games in the rounds but not show the final. Now they can show the final too, but is still has to be broadcast on FTA.

For me, I actually agree with the sentient of the statement in the link. FTA coverage of the CC is essential for our sport. However, it needs to be considerably better coverage than at present as the scheduling of the rounds is all over the place, the coverage is poor, the kick off times erratic and the crowds poor. So the positive coverage the RFL are hoping to get from FTA coverage just isn't happening because, quite frankly, it all looks a bit naff.
