How can the broadcaster justify £15 or nothing? Surely they don't have any additional costs because it is the same stream they are selling globally?
Also is the collective negotiation power for all the PL chairman and CEOs really so bad that they put up with a £14.95 or nothing deal? So no...
How about - a season ticket for every premier league game in the US, Canada, Germany or Italy being somewhere between £60-£100 per season, for *EVERY* game live.
Or how about the vast majority of EFL clubs allowing their season ticket holders to watch every home game for free on iFollow.
Or...
It’s greed pure and simple. And knowing they can get away with it for those desperate to watch their team.
In any country in the world you can pay <£100
Per season to watch every EPL game.
Likewise US sports similar price for NBA,
NFL etc every season.
55/72 EFL clubs also managed to negotiate...

Why are you missing the fact that virtually every other club in the Premier League & Championship are offering some kind of refund mechanism to fans ?
It’s simple - at least allow a pro rata refund for games missed - and start back up again when they have sight of being able to open up games.
When?
Every gig I had planned for this year, has either rescheduled to a new date in 2021 or offered a refund.
Every holiday I had booked I got a choice to rebook a new date, take a refund or a credit note.
The fact the club aren’t even listening to fans who may really need the money is...
I’ve said this a couple of times - but really it’ll be interesting when the viewing figures for games are ‘leaked’ and the bigger clubs realise how much of a pull they have, what future deals are negotiated. You can guarantee the equal distribution thing won’t last and Brighton will be bottom 3...
It’d certainly be interesting to see what would happen if legal action was taken against the club for the current situation. Any idea under consumer law who is ‘right’ with regards to the season ticket situation?
We did ok at the withdean without interest free direct debits. Dare I say if the Albion want 23,000 committing to season tickets to fill the ground it is more in their interest to offer it than the fans ‘benefit’
