Sky News reports:
The EU courts have ruled that current Premier League broadcasting rights are against the law, in a move that may allow football fans to watch matches using foreign decoders.
The landmark ruling will allow pubs to show football matches via the cheaper satellite devices, but only if rights holders allow.
The initial case was brought by a Portsmouth pub landlady against the Premier League over its broadcasting restrictions.
Karen Murphy, who owns the Red White and Blue pub, had been fined £8,000 for using a cheaper Greek decoder to screen live matches.
