Setanta ‘could face administration’

CASH-strapped sports broadcaster Setanta could be forced into administration this week after failing to make payments due on TV rights, according to reports.

Deloitte are on stand-by to act as administrator for the firm unless it agrees a last-minute rescue with their investors, the reports said.

The Irish firm, which televised England’s 4-0 World Cup qualifying win away to Kazakhstan on Saturday, is struggling to pay cash owed to football associations.
