All I've said is it wasn't a coup ITV securing him. Everyone had a chance and ITV bid the highest - great !
It is still a coup to be fair. Yes it might have been a open offer to all stations but Sky & BN probably thought it was something they could get on the cheap being the 'only shows in town' that could deal with this type of fighter. I could be wrong and they may not have bid but ITV slipping in and getting it is a coup in the sense of tv on sport

Very well put, and those claiming it was not a coup are just annoyed it took them by surprise and they are not as well informed as they may believe
