For the 2nd legs it looks as though Evertons is all over, while Fulhams isn't.”
I guess ITV4 will probably pick up the Fulham game now, unless any other broadcaster who is still interested in the ex-Setanta rights might want it?
With the way the games are it would seem that Hearts are effectively out, and with Celtic losing heavily to Arsenal in the Champions League playoff first leg chances are Celtic will be the only Scottish club in the Europa League. Plus we might yet get all the English teams through.
BBC / BBC Scotland might still want to go for the available rights to the group stages onwards if they are cheap enough. Only other likely bidders will still be ESPN or British Eurosport I think.
