"More Premier League action than any other broadcaster, with at least four matches every week."

I guess Sky Sports thinks the UK is the only place in the world.

It's pretty shit that everywhere else can watch every game in the PL, but we can't in the UK. At least they will show some more on Sundays.

This will passed down to the consumer - Sky Sports and TNT Sports will only get more expensive.
