Nagflar Posted January 31, 2014 Share Posted January 31, 2014 At least we'll get to watch him compete this time around. During previous competitions, the whole thing wasn't aired on TV unless you were subscribed to SKY or something, whereas now it'll be aired on a national channel that anyone can watch.
