Premier league to go ppv this month

[LudlamBlade]

Well done LudlamBlade - always heartening to see someone actually making a stand rather than bitching and moaning about it on here (like me!)

Thanks Wards, credit should go to Blade56 for the idea though!

Got Joel Mensah interested already!

Why can't clubs have their own tv channel like man utd tv, for instance, .while covid and lockdowns are happening?
Sheff Utd has not sold any season tickets.so they could charge £150 for all home games for rest of the season.
£10 per away game.if sky and bt don,t like tell em to fuck off.

They should pay us £15 to watch the Fulham game.

Bein sports, nbc sports and Dazn subscriptions will be on the rise. Its interesting how everyone doesnt want to pay the £15 ppv even though the money is going to ‘your’ club to help them during covid. Il play devils advocate and say what if we cant afford to sign more players in jan, or what if we have to furlough staff ? I can see that £15 is too much but blades,like most others are probably struggling financially now, seems like we need help but fans aren’t willing. Perhaps the extortionate wages of footballers plays some part in supporters decisions. It does for me, i cant feel sorry for football, its out of control and epl, like rest of football needs salary caps in place like usa sports,it works well.

I've still not seen anything about the extent that clubs are benefitting from this. Having listened to Price of Football this morning it seems that the broadcasters are very much the reason behind the price, if the price is what's bothering people then I'm sure the clubs could come together and ask them to reduce pricing.

But then no one seemed to have a problem with EFL clubs charging £10 for their IFollow streams, why is £15 deserving of such outrage? It's only a fiver extra and you are getting better coverage with replays and multi camera angles for that fiver more.

I'm not opposed to the idea but the issue seems to be that it's 50% more expensive than an EFL game.

My view all along has been that as long as the club are benefitting I'm ok with it and will pay it IF the club benefits. It was the same with the pre-season games, I paid £10 for 3 and watched about 80 mins in total.

I think people have become a bit spoilt if I'm honest, it's never been the case that all fans can expect to see all games live (granted there are the odd few die-hards who will), it now seems to be expected and I think it will change the way that TV rights are sold in future. It shows the fans that it's possible and therefore will become the norm over time.

All the people moaning about having to have a Sky/BT subscription and then having to pay this on top. You can buy Sky on a daily basis for £9.99 through Now TV, you don't need to subscribe to Sky Sports to watch PL games.
