Apparently there are 9 interested bidders for the A-League broadcast rights. Not sure why with tv ratings like that. Perhaps like you say, Stan will pick it up on the cheap.leeroy*NRL* wrote: Sun May 09, 2021 12:09 pmI think that takes for the cake for the lowest Figure on FOX>
FOX will say goodbye to A League.

A League will likely ask for less for FTA Exposure
and would aim for something similar to what Rugby Union is doing.
which would suit Ch9
but gee at what price..
Nine leading broadcast players - both domestic and international - are in the mix to tie-up the A-League’s TV rights, with a decision “very close” to being finalised.
Existing rights holder Fox Sports’ long-time deal expires in July, amid ongoing uncertainty over the identity of a future partner.
But Australian Professional Leagues chairman Paul Lederer is confident a deal will be inked in the coming weeks, adding he’s been taken aback by the level of interest from across the globe in the domestic competition.
The APL is spearheading negotiations after the recent unbundling from Football Australia.
Whilst reluctant to dive into specifics, the billionaire Western Sydney Wanderers chief confirmed that Fox Sports were **** the interested parties along with the likes of Channel Nine-owned streaming service Stan Sport.
But he said a broad spectrum of bidders had thrown their hats in the ring to discuss taking up a rights package, likely to also include the W-League.
“We’re talking to nine different parties,” he revealed. “There’s been a hell of a lot of interest, a lot of different people and important companies from around the world.
“These are very prominent, world class providers. It’s getting close, very close. I think by the end of April, or May, this will all be resolved.
"It’s exciting ... that’s all I can tell you.”
In addition to Stan and Fox - who renegotiated a reduced one-year contract worth $28 million after the COVID-19 pandemic struck - heavyweights like Amazon Prime, DAZN, Hulu, fuboTV and Optus may also be eyeing the competition.
Whilst professing surprise at the sheer numbers of bidders, Lederer said it was driven by a thirst for content.
He also stated it was possible the A-League could be shown across more than a single platform.
