The doomongering made what I post on here seem positive. Everything possible to go wrong was predicted fo go wrong.

TNT staff expect they will offer it at a price similar to what they offering the Winter Olympics for rather than the full TNT price. But equally the main coverage is apparently going to be very different to what they do for the Olympics (Which is less pundits and studio chat than the BBC) with speculation it might be based on NBC’s Olympic coverage with tons of human interest etc.

Is a member of the British Royal Fmaily still going to open the games? If they do then it will be a very rare official royal attending event exclusively live behind a paywall?

Think the cursed times Elise Christie had toppled with the very strict rules and constant DQ’a the sport has had helped make if a lot less popular than it could have been

Well 2030 is secured for India who won’t dare cancel like South Africa because that will affect their long term aims of hosting the Olympics and Football World Cup. 2034 has offers and by 2038 Australia might host again.

I think they will only get highlights and maybe the opening ceremony (Through TNT might simply put some live stuff on You Thbe to try and get subscribers( .

Unless Eurosport comes back they might not be any full coverage in the UK. TNT will be owned by Netflix while the rest of the discovery group in Europe is being spun off.

Will any countries refuse to let AIN athletes into events. Do any still ban Russian passport holders in?

Suspect others will boycott as well

Becuase China pay bribes and Canada don’t.

Could see some European countries withdrawing in protest.

Could be blacked out on British TV. Scottish goverment getting worried.

TNT are turnover to be disbanding sometime between 2027 and 2029 and possibly leaving the British Sports Market.

I’d say there is a 50% chance the Uk will have no access to anything but the coverage the BBC has.
