Never to the dark side Posted December 17, 2021 Report Share Posted December 17, 2021 On another football forum, it was stated that the three leagues of the EFL received an income £54 million pounds as opposed to a normal season of £7-£10 million pounds Most of the income,I presume, would have been generated by the towards the top of the league clubs in the Championship which were not on sky Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1960maaan Posted December 17, 2021 Report Share Posted December 17, 2021 Interesting one. I imagine most streams cost the same to fans, whatever their Division. The amount would then depend on the numbers paying for the streams. Obviously it noway makes up for the loss in Season ticket money, but around £44m in streaming income would have paid some bills. As you say, probably weighted towards the top of the Championship (better support) with maybe the odd exception. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Never to the dark side Posted December 17, 2021 Author Report Share Posted December 17, 2021 Did a very un scientific analysis of Bristol City If we say 20,000 attendance for EVERY home game at fifteen pounds per head over the season That would out Bristol City gets/got 7 million 200 hundred thousand pounds BUT There are many factors to be fed in as well 1)those who would not subscribe 2) as well several persons using the service as a group in their house hold Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BTRFTG Posted December 17, 2021 Report Share Posted December 17, 2021 Quid pro quo was the Sky deal in 2018 which expanded the streaming rights that now allow red button services. I've kept a season ticket though only as it allows me to keep a seat. Given the convenience and now expanded presence of being able to watch City via my existing Sky contract there's really little point on my renewing next season ( in truth there hasn't been for many a season.) If so, City lose that chuck of upfront money, I have to buy access to fewer games of benefit to City, plus those I do I could potentially split with like-minded supporters.
