I did read the same thing too.
Doesn't the ESPN FA Cup deal expire in summer 2013? Wonder what will happen with their deal for Europa League football?
As a Scottish football fan I wonder what the future holds for Scottish football. ESPN just signed a brand new deal:
"The Clydesdale Bank Premier League and Irn Bru Scottish Football League are back on ESPN.
With the new multi-year deal for rights to Scottish football through to 2017; ESPN is the home of Scottish football. For 2012/13, get ready for 40 live and exclusive matches, including 10 Rangers games from the Irn Bru Scottish Football League – more than ever before and ten more than in previous seasons"
