“We’ve now really hit our stride in terms of our business, and all the cogs are turning. It’s so exhilarating, being able to develop our ‘Home of Sport’ with this professional team. We remain hungry and see potential everywhere – it’s a groove I’m really enjoying. Lots of highlights are coming up that we’re showcasing for the first time, such as the [National League] play-offs,” said Steffi Buchli, MySports head of programming.
