Look at me,ime a SUCCESS!! i CAN AFFORD TO PAY... Pay on the gate died the death largely at Hillsborough,without much of an organised Campaign This though has already attracted media critique..hit a nerve... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Said it a few times before, but it’s no longer a working mans game. I’ve lost love for the “beautiful game”... which it no longer is. Got to admit I feel more and more out of touch with football in general, less interested in it. Sky, PPV, ridiculous transfer fees, wages and men in suits that know nothing about the game has ruined it for me. I’ll support and follow us no matter what though, but going down to ground every other week just got too pricey for me a few years ago unfortunately. So there’s no chance I’m paying out on footy PPV’s ffs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's no PL this weekend, Everton v Liverpool is live on BT on the 17th (free to subscribers). As a Wednesday fan, would you or anyone pay the extra to watch Liverpool vs man utd/city I know I won't. I'm starting to think the EPL clubs are getting a bit twitchy with regards to finance.

And I don't have a Sky or BT subscription. PL clubs are getting nervous. Even the 'big clubs who rely on commercial and sponsorship deals for a large part of their income will be getting worried about those streams shrinking or even disappearing. If spectators continue to be banned, I would think the rest of the PL (non traditional big 6) clubs will start to suffer too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure if I've hit the point, where I'm not sure I'd pay to watch Wednesday on TV. I think u've hit the nail on the head. Financially the "Big" clubs are starting to get twitchy. It's starting to affect them now, so this is there attempt to try and hoover up whatever money is available. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FreshOwl Posted October 10, 2020 Share Posted October 10, 2020 Telling you guys, streaming is the way to go. Lets face it, Wednesday aren’t good enough to be paying £10/15 a game to watch on a small screen Instead, go on a stream, hit the corner X on a few pop-ups and you’ll get the same HD quality as you would on ifollow. And it usually gets a bit dodgy towards the end which is great, as the game is usually either rank awful quality or we’re losing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lime Tree Heros Posted October 10, 2020 Share Posted October 10, 2020 Don't pay it! For the same money, get off the sofa and go and watch your local non-league football whilst enjoying a couple of pints. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
4evaowl Posted October 10, 2020 Share Posted October 10, 2020 Greedy football clubs. Obviously top level are the worst but all levels spend beyond their means, so I find it hard to have any sympathy with them. This is another example of fleecing supporters when many haven't had a penny back for pre paid season tickets. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SiJ Posted October 10, 2020 Share Posted October 10, 2020 The problem is people will pay for it, even though it's an absolute joke. PL clubs have spent a billion in transfer fees, whilst also furloughing staff, mascots etc., and now they want fans to cough up fifteen queen to watch Burnley v Brughton. Laughable.

agentwalker Posted October 10, 2020 Share Posted October 10, 2020 (edited) If prem clubs were being affected by this crisis then they shouldn't be spaffing away £200 mill on players. Same with the pigs, spending all that on Brewster. They should do what most EFL clubs are doing and cut back.
