This week might spell the end of Setanta Sports. The one channel I wish was on Time Warner may not be seen anywhere else soon. And, of course, EPL rights, World Cup rights, etc. could be changed again.

Funny thing about sports rights payments. Those sports don't take too kindly to that money not being deposited into their accounts. Looks like the Scots haven't received their final payment this year. The FA and EPL are due money soon and the new bidding for the TV deals only went down a few months ago, with North American rights still to be determined.

Keep your eye on ESPN. They may come through to pick up the pieces at fire sale rates.
