I really am not sure about this, but does the fact that BBC have the rights mean they also have rights to lease out to foreign broadcasters for overseas transmission? The pictures certainly will be provided from BBC cameras. The Far East market then is immense, and presumably the fees the BBC could charge would be substantial.
Good point. If they DO have the rights to lease out, then it would make much more sense to be honest.
Maybe you are all getting it wrong here, and its nothing to do with Utd at all, it may just be that Wigan Athletic are the attraction for the BBC ???

Actually with the Yootha link this is one that is ideal for TV.Well, I hate to be blunt here but, I think apart from Utd and Wigan fans, nobody actually cares.
I think Joyce being here won’t increase or decrease viewing figures significantly.
I just worry we will get spanked on TV by that shower of shite. Told you before, put your mortgage on bloody Rooney breaking the record against us. You all know its gonna happen.

Let’s hope it’s not that pr!ck Mowbray commentating.
He can’t wait to describe how impudent little Wigan were taught a lesson they will never forget. :evil:
More likely horc is we will be brilliant on the day keeping out everything the scum throw at us only to lose to a blatantly wrong penalty in the 95th minute.

Same with me but with most matches that appear on TV including the cliche ridden match of the day. Don’t give a shite about any club apart from ours and of course a passing interest in seeing Nob End and Noblot get beaten.
Games involving United get the largest TV audiences – that’s why they keep getting picked for FA Cup games time after time.
The BBC still has a duty to its licence payers & governors to get the largest viewing figures for their programmes regardless of whether they can aell advertising during the game or not. The BBC’s deal with the FA doesn’t tie them to spreading the games around like Sky’s premier league deal & if sky could show United every week they would.
Whilst the “magic of the cup” may mean I’d love to watch Sutton v Leeds or Lincoln v Brighton the fact is that the viewing figures for United v Wigan will dwarf what they would get for the above 2 gamesI don’t get this Utd get the best viewing figures as I imagine many fans of every other club deliberately don’t watch the fookers and switch off. Most football fans in England do not follow Utd and the majority of those who proclaim to do so (the sheep) don’t even know what they are watching half the time. As an individual club they do have most viewers but collectively their numbers are dwarfed by the majority who support a club not a trend.
