    It would appear the rumours of Sky Sports' impending doom have been greatly exaggerated.

    Wow. Huge win for Sky I would say considering the pressure they faced going into the process.

    So sky continues to have a monopoly on premier league rights with the rest having just the scraps. It should have been more even with BT having the sunday 4pm or monday 8pm slots
