[QUOTE="Topper, post: 397310, member: 186250"] Yes sorry that was completely OT, wrong thread I think. What I was going to say about this thread is that it really all comes down to us only holding half membership of the EU, we only adopt the bits we want and the rest we reject. If we were fully committed members then I would have to agree that European law prevails and Sky would have no jurisdiction to stop landlords receiving matches via broadcasting from Nova using a pub license. However we do seem to reject or ignore a number of European laws which rather muddies the waters. I think the rules concerning uncompetitive practices should apply and competition should be introduced to allow people and landlords to have a choice. I really do not see why sky would be afraid of competition I think we will have to wait and see what ruling is made [/QUOTE]
