BBC will no longer show England Six Nations games as new free-to-air deal agreed
The Six Nations will remain on free-to-air for the next four years after a landmark deal was struck that means the BBC will no longer show England games, Telegraph Sport understands.
ITV will show all of England's games under the new deal, making Saturday's match between Wales and England the last shown on BBC until at least 2030.
The deal, which is said to represent a significant uplift to the existing one of £90 million over four years, will give ITV 10 games per Championship with the BBC showing the remaining five games. This will include Wales and Scotland home games as long as England are not involved.
Our chief rugby union correspondent Gavin Mairs has all the details.

England U20 captain Tom Burrow speaking ahead of the game
'We talk a lot about brotherhood and there is a lot of truth behind that.
'A lot of us have played with each other for three to four years. It is not only good to be playing for your country but also with lads you have been close to over the last few years is pretty special.
'We are putting that brotherhood onto the pitch and it is resulting in wins which is what we want.'

Welsh choir formed just 16 months ago gets immense booking and some still think it's a wind up

Welsh choir formed just 16 months ago gets immense booking and some still think it's a wind up People have been telephoning to check, convinced it can't be true The Principality Stadium, Cardiff, ahead of the Wales vs New Zealand autumn international in 2022 (Image: Mark Lewis/Huw Evans Agency ) A male voice choir which didn't exist 16 months ago will be performing at the Principality Stadium ahead of the Wales vs New Zealand autumn international, and some pre-match nerves are starting to kick in. Matthew Bailey, of Cor Meibion Clydach, said they would be one of three choirs singing together, including performing the teams' respective national anthems ahead of kick-off. Cllr Bailey, a Swansea councillor who represents Clydach, said two choir members phoned him to ask if it was a wind-up. "They said, 'All joking aside, are we actually going to sing at the Principality Stadium?'" he said. Cor Meibion Clydach has performed Christmas and VE Day concerts in front of around 400 people - somewhat fewer than the Principality's 74,000 capacity. "It is a great honour," said Cllr Bailey. "Its Wales-New Zealand - a massive game." For our free daily briefing on the biggest issues facing the nation, sign up to the Wales Matters newsletter here He reckoned the choirs would sing around eight songs and then the national anthems. "There is an element of nervousness," said Cllr Bailey. "You're probably never going to get this opportunity again. You've got to perform. It would help if we could have a couple of drinks beforehand!" Cllr Bailey, who last year resurrected what had been a successful male voice choir in Clydach in the past, said he'd been in touch with an official who arranged choirs at the stadium and that he received an email last Thursday saying Cor Meibion Clydach was one of the three selected. He said Cor Meibion Clydach member Wayne Griffiths had sung at the stadium previously with his other choir, Morriston Orpheus, Swansea, and described the experience as "completely emotional".

"I am really looking forward to it, and everybody is in the choir is as well," he said. "Standing on the pitch in front of 70,000 people, singing - I will be an emotional wreck." Mr Brunton, 58, who used to play second row for Vardre RFC, Clydach, said the All Blacks were the biggest test for any Wales rugby team. They haven't lost to Wales since 1953. Cor Meibion Clydach has been guided and improved by musical director Gareth Sims and his accompanist wife, Julie. Cllr Bailey said it was up to 38 members and could accommodate more. The choir practises on Thursday evenings at Vardre RFC. Sunday sessions are also taking place on the back of the Principality Stadium news. Article continues below One of its members is David Waghorn, president of Vardre RFC. Speaking in April he said he used to listen to and help the previous male voice choir before it disbanded many years ago and that he'd regretted not joining it. "Everyone tells me singing is good for the soul and well-being," said Mr Waghorn . "I thought, 'I'm not going to miss out this time.' It's one of the best things I have done."

Next Brentford Manager Odds & Betting: Who Are The Contenders to Replace Frank?

Long-serving head coach Thomas Frank appears on the verge of departing Brentford for pastures new, with the Dane reportedly in talks with Tottenham Hotspur, and betting sites have reacted by opening a next Brentford manager market. Frank has been at the Gtech since 2018, taking over when Brentford were still in the Championship and earning promotion before turning the Bees into a well-established Premier League side. But his impressive showings mean he has long been touted for a move to a bigger Premier League club, and Spurs have identified him as their top candidate after deciding to part ways with Europa League winner Ange Postecoglou. And Frank's upcoming move leaves Brentford looking for a new manager for the first time in seven years ahead of preparations starting for the 2025/26 season. A 10th-placed finish last term has left Brentford in a good position ahead of next term, but with Frank leaving, alongside the potential departure of Bryan Mbeumo, the new boss will need to act quickly both on the pitch and in the market ahead of the season beginning on 16 August. According to football betting sites, current assistant manager Justin Cochrane is the leading candidate to take over at Gtech, with Ipswich boss Kieran McKenna also admired. And with plenty of movement possible before the new season starts, we've taken a look at the leading contenders for the Brentford job. Next Brentford Manager Odds Manager Odds Betting site Justin Cochrane 4/7 Parimatch Kieran McKenna 6/1 Unibet Danny Rohl 8/1 Unibet Michael Carrick 12/1 BetVictor Edin Terzic 16/1 talkSPORT Bet Marco Rose 16/1 BetVictor Steven Gerrard 16/1 Unibet Sean Dyche 16/1 Parimatch Carlos Corberan 20/1 Unibet Ange Postecoglou 20/1 Parimatch Ralph Hasenhuttl 20/1 Unibet Mauricio Pochettino 25/1 BetVictor Note that according to the terms on most betting sites, 'caretaker and interim managers completing at least 10 consecutive competitive games will be deemed the permanent manager'. Current first team coach Cochrane is the leading candidate to take over from Frank, with the Englishman also a member of Thomas Tuchel's coaching staff within the Three Lions set-up. An appointment to the lead role at Brentford would likely mean Cochrane has to shelve that role with England, but the 43-year-old may well jump at the chance for a first head coach role having previously coached at numerous levels at Manchester United, Tottenham and with the national side. Cochrane is short as 1/3 on some betting apps to take over at the Gtech, though it is not known for sure whether the Bees hierarchy will judge him to have enough top-level experience to take over such a job. Current Ipswich boss Kieran McKenna is an interesting proposition at around 6/1, with the Englishman having seen his side suffer relegation from the Premier League this season. Nevertheless, McKenna has received plaudits for his performance while in charge of the Tractor Boys, and having also won promotion from the Championship the season before, he certainly has the edge in experience over Cochrane. Sheffield Wednesday boss Danny Rohl is the other 'leading' candidate, according to the betting odds, at 8/1. The German's side finished 12th in the Championship last season, and it doesn't seem as though that performance will be enough to tempt the Bees into discussions. Former Premier League and Champions League bosses in the running Ex-Middlesbrough manager Michael Carrick is next on the list at 12/1, with Carrick having parted ways with the club after failing to finish in the play-off spots last season. Carrick initially showed plenty of promise at the Riverside, and though it ended on a sour note he will likely have plenty of suitors – though it is likely that a job of this size will be too much for him at this point in his career. Further down the odds, there's a wealth of experience among some of the less likely candidates, including Champions League finalist Edin Terzic. Former Dortmund boss Terzic guided Dortmund to the 2024 final but lost out to Real Madrid, and has been out of work since being sacked by the club not long after. He is priced at 16/1 to take over, as is fellow ex-Dortmund boss Marco Rose. Rose, who is a free agent after leaving RB Leipzig in March, has over 12 years of experience including time at RB Salzburg, and a first role at a Premier League club could be enough to tempt him away from Germany. And if Brentford want to go with experience then former Everton boss Sean Dyche could be a good choice, with the ex-Burnley boss out of work since his sacking in January. He's offered around 16/1, though his football would be at odds with that of Frank, so hiring him would perhaps be counter-productive for the Bees. And the last manager at 16/1 is Steven Gerrard, who recently left Al-Effitaq in Saudi Arabia after a string of poor results. Though he won the Scottish title with Rangers in 2021, the fact that he left Aston Villa in 2022 with the club just above the relegation zone suggests that Brentford will steer clear of the former Liverpool man. Spurs Favourites in The Mix? There's plenty of intrigue among the less-likely candidates to take over at the Gtech, with two names standing out in particular – Ange Postecoglou and Mauricio Pochettino. The two former Spurs bosses are seen as unlikely to join Brentford considering the circumstances, with Postecoglou perhaps taking time off – and hoping for a step up from the Spurs job – while Poch has only just begun his tenure as manager of the United States national team. They are priced at 20/1 and 25/1 respectively. Valencia manager Carlos Corberan is another outside shout at 20/1, having impressed in Spain after taking over at the end of 2024 with the club near relegation and subsequently overseeing a climb up the table to 12th. And Ralph Hasenhuttl rounds off those offered at 20/1, with the Austrian having been sacked by VFL Wolfsburg after an 11th-placed finish in the Bundesliga. Responsible gambling When having a bet, it's vital to practice responsible gambling. When using gambling sites be aware that sports betting can be addictive. Please take steps to remain in control of your time and budget. The same applies whether you're using new betting sites, slot sites, casino sites, casino apps, betting apps, or any other gambling medium. Even the most knowledgeable punter can lose a bet, so always stick to a budget and never chase your losses. It's particularly important not to get carried away by any free bets or casino offers you might receive, both of which are available in abundance on gambling sites, but must be approached with caution. You can stay in control by making use of the responsible gambling tools offered, such as deposit limits, loss limits, self-exclusion and time-outs.

Horse racing tips: Tuesday, June 10

It's a low-key day's racing but our in-house tipster continues to be in form and has selections from the meetings at Catterick and Wolverhampton. Ron Wood's selections: Odds provided by William Hill and correct at the time of writing. Stars denote strength of selection (max 5). If you already have a William Hill account and are looking for a new bookmaker to use for this week's racing, check out more free bets from the best betting sites, reviewed by our experts. 5.50 Wolverhampton – Class 6 Handicap (1m ½f) In a weak race, CLASSIC CAUSE (NAP) still has some potential. This Charlie Hills-trained runner kept on well for a close third in an all-weather event over 7f at Southwell on his seasonal reappearance and handicap debut, and that form has worked out. He failed to build on that at Nottingham next time, but the return to the all-weather is in his favour and this looks a good opportunity for him. 7.10 Catterick – Class 5 Fillies' Handicap (7f) Stall 10 may be a bit wider than is ideal for CROWN'S LADY but she is in form and still looks like she has more to give. A sharper test than she faced when third at Carlisle last time looks to be in her favour and she also drops back down in grade from Class 4. Selection: Crown's Lady @ 4/1 with William Hill Today's racing (Flat unless stated) Salisbury 2.00-5.05 Wolverhampton 2.45-5.50 Sligo (NH) 5.28-8.28 Catterick 5.10-8.40 Fontwell (NH) 6.20-8.50 Ron Wood 2025 horse racing P/L (Up to and including Sunday June 8) Star ratings explained ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ - confident selection ⭐⭐⭐⭐ - strong fancy ⭐⭐⭐ - fair claims ⭐⭐ - tentative choice ⭐ - minimum confidence If you want to find more odds and offers, take a look at our list of the best betting sites and free bets Check out our list of the best casino bonuses in the UK
