Not allowed to - they aint got the rights for them - and probably never will.
The UK has a selection of sports that are protected from being grabbed by Sky and have to be shown on one of our 4 main terrestrial channels. The World Cup is in this protected category.
Its open to speculation if BBC / ITV would sublicence coverage to Sky.
Of course - with a decent sized dish (2.5-3m or so) you could get the signals off Astra 2D and watch the footy on the BBC & ITV! |
