Fox to ruin the Asian Cup spectacle?

Pity the children who can't watch the Socceroos


With the Asian Cup only been shown on Fox, the number of Socceroos fans able to see the games will be severely reduced.


However a run to the final in prime time should give FoxSports it's biggest viewing figures ever.



With the tournament only being shown on Fox, and Aussie media's reluctance to cover anything outside its own shores, the fantastic Free To Air channels will surely find it hard to fit news of the Socceroos into their bulletins.



Don't expect too much in the newspapers either.



When Football in the Capital recently spoke to the FFA they said, "they weren't expecting too many reporters travelling from Australia."

Still you can keep up-to-date with the Aussies through this blog. Someone has to keep the non-Fox subscribers informed, so I'll do my best:)
