Ruling could cut cost of watching football at home
Europe’s highest court has ruled that it is not illegal for householders to buy set-top box decoder cards from foreign broadcasters, meaning people could watch Premier League matches for less at home.
The ruling could also have huge implications for the pub trade, which pays higher commercial rates to screen matches, with the Licensed Vintners Association (LVA) contacting Sky yesterday to arrange a meeting on the effects of the ruling.
