Bulls Match Highlights On-Line
The Coca-Cola Football League has announced a deal with Virgin Media to show the highlights of League 1 and 2 matches on both Internet and mobile phone platforms. Users will be able to access action from matches for up to a week after transmission. Bulls' fans may recall a similar facility being available in the Conference via the Conference TV outlet although this is the first time that fans will have had a video service option to their phones.
The agreement will run, initially for two seasons and begins in time for the start of the new season on August 11. In announcing the new tie-up Football League Chairman, Lord Mawhinney, said: "I am delighted to welcome Virgin Media to a working partnership with The Football League. This agreement will give fans even more opportunities to see their team in action, as well as providing clubs with a new source of revenue." Malcolm Wall, chief executive officer of content at Virgin Media, added: "We're committed to investing in great content for our customers and this new partnership will give football fans a genuinely value-added service."
Bulls News will publish details regarding costs and access information once they become available.
