Expert analysis

Posted by rich, 4 Nov 2007

In today's Observer, the following bit of analysis, from someone who "knows about the value of live rights" for sport, struck me as, well, not having to necessarily come from someone who knows about the value of live rights for sport:

If Manchester United played in front of 70 million people [on TV or internet] on a global level, and each of them paid £1, that's £70m a game.

Perhaps you just need to tell someone you know about the value of live rights and that will suffice for whatever analysis follows?
