New TV Rights

[Chips and Chocolate]

Makes me want to throw up really, that amount of money is disgusting.
And will they lower ticket prices with the extra income? Will they fuck?

it will only end up boosting wages and transfer fees, nobody gives a flying f##k about the fans anymore

What annoys me more than anything about this new deal is yet again they are only selling rights to some 140 games.
I'm really not that interested in watching other sides play, just Arsenal.

Why on earth in this day and age can I not buy a subscription to all of Arsenal's games? Quite simply I will keep on using internet streams until this option materialises.

Oh I don't know. I suspect Wenger will get a nice little bonus from Stanley (as well as a new contract on even higher wages) if he keeps getting us into a CL position whilst simultaneously making sure we don't win anything - thus ensuring the yank doesn't have to pay out any additional bonuses to the players for actually achieving something.

And UEFA doubled CL tv rights money for next 3 years. EPL clubs are going to make lot of money.

Better make sure that the BT company that Bid isn't a shell company offshoot subsidiary that if they don't like it in a years time they walk away like setanta itv digital etc etc
