PL payments 18/19

The UK Live & Facility Fees are where it all becomes completely unfair, as Sky and BT get to choose which games they get to broadcast and tend to favour the fashionable clubs. Meanwhile every single match not broadcast in the UK is shown all around the world anyway.

 

Also, why are Spurs getting facility fees when they’ve spent two seasons away from home? Shouldn’t that money be going to Wembley?!

Broadcasting revenue in the UK sees 50% equally shared; 25% shared based on how often a club’s matches are broadcast in the UK (known as 'Facility Fees'); and 25 per cent shared based on where a club finish in the league table (known as 'Merit Payments').

It's an incredible amount of money.

Even Huddersfield should be able to rebuild the playing strength with that sort of dosh and further parachute payments to come

The International TV payments will change soon as the top 6 will get a bigger share as voted for by the whole PL.

Makes it even more of a joke away tickets aren't less than £30 and new shirts cost £50.

Supply and demand, if we keep buying them at that price they will keep selling them.

 

Unfortunately, football is now big business and see us as nothing more than consumers.

Its why we are so lucky to have an owner like Top. He treats us as apart of the club, with his generosity in match give aways and Charity outside of football. I really hope this sort of treatment continues for other clubs in the PL.

Be good of Newcastle to use the money they get for being media darlings to make themselves less boring if we have to watch half of their games

Well, Spurs would have paid rent to play there, so Wembley are essentially getting that money.

Don't suppose Wembley are letting Spurs play there for free, Plus policing & security still have to be paid for.

They didn’t do it while they were in the PL, I can’t see them bothering now.
