of the Grange Pub, is concerned by the reported move<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n<p>PUB managers in Cardiff have warned that reported plans for Six Nations coverage to move from free-to-air TV to behind a paywall would be disastrous for business.<br \/> <br \/>On Saturday, The Rugby Paper reported that the championship would move to Sky from 2022 until at least 2024, in a deal rumoured to be worth \u00a3300 million. <br \/> <br \/>Television rights to the Six Nations are currently shared between the BBC and ITV, who joined forces to outbid Sky for tournament coverage in 2015.<br \/> <br \/>However, these look likely to be lost when their deal ends in 2021, with rules preventing them from making another joint bid. <br \/> <br \/>A statement from the Six Nations said that while speculation was \u201chighly premature\u201d, tournament officials would \u201cnot rule anything out\u201d at this stage.<br \/> <br \/>The reports have frustrated some publicans around Cardiff, who have come to rely on showing terrestrial coverage to bring in much-needed business during an otherwise quiet time of year.<br \/> \u00a0<br \/>Dai Dearden, 33, manager of The Grange in Grangetown, is one of those concerned about the impact of the potential move on his takings.<br \/> <br \/>\u201cIt will affect us massively,\u201d he said. \u201cWe only show terrestrial stuff, no league football or anything like that \u2013 the Six Nations is really the only major sporting event that we show.<br \/> <br \/>\u201cObviously, January is very quiet for us, and we all look forward to February as we know there will be some money coming in.<\/p>\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"717\" height=\"538\" loading=\"lazy\"
