Football on Sky next season....

Recommended Posts

Dread to think how much more they are going to ask for next season. Bearing in mind how much more they are pumping money into the PL.

Frankly the cost of watching it on TV or at the grounds is getting out of control. So much pure greed, as illustrated by Liverpool this week. It seems the walk out on the 77th min may have made them think .

The days of a father taking two sons to a game must be over!

What is happening to the peoples game?

We should perhaps do what the Germans did and throw tennis balls at the players or perhaps TURKEYS

The income from attendances is trivial when you are in the PL. Get relegated and lose most of the TV money especially after the parachute monies dry up and it is a different matter. Clubs outside the big ones should remember this when setting ticket prices.

For me the TV licence is enough by itself, then theres the cost of Broadband/phone/TV package  to whomever youre with. Then on top of that Sky fleece  people for sport / movies etc. No thx. Im happy with Android and getting movies / sport for free thru streaming. Have never given one penny to Murdochs megalithic empire and never will. But that is modern day choice, whatever floats your boat.

A climb down just reported in the Daily Mail. Liverpool have apologised to their supporters, and admit they got it wrong on the £77 tickets. Frozen prices as this year AND all tickets same price for every game regardless of who they play. NCFC take note!

Guess it does show that some clubs do take some notice of fans protesting.

Hope the big clubs give way on pricing tickets for away fans now.

[quote user="SwindonCanary"]The percentage of income clubs will get from gate money compared with the TV money is minuscule. So why do clubs continue to rip off fans ?    [/quote]

Thats easy. Because they can

Grounds will fill whatever the price of a ticket. Proven at Norwich
