Bit of a mish-mash of an article... I'd opine that a big part of the reason why people are falling out of love with football is in part due to sugar daddy owners, but more so due to Sky TV:
- the multi billion TV contracts divided out to the clubs is largely squandered by weak Chairmen or not even enough to pay the bananas wages of the players. The shortfall in income brings exorbitant ticket prices, and even when it's not that, no Chairman has yet resisted the "it's the Premier League, you should pay Premier League prices" nonsense. - Sky Sports News and rolling coverage of absolute bobbins (same as 24 Hour news in general) via the yellow ticker tape of "EXCLUSIVE NEWS!!!" like say Joey Barton sends a new tweet. Platini's rules and de-regulation of TV rights can't come quick enough for me. -----Original Message----- From: leedslist-boun...@gn.apc.org [mailto:leedslist-boun...@gn.apc.org] On Behalf Of Nigel Sykes Sent: jueves, 26 de enero de 2012 11:00 To: leedslist@gn.apc.org Subject: Re: [LU] Jim White in the Telegraph Confidencialidad Este correo electrónico y, en su caso, cualquier fichero anexo al mismo, contiene información de carácter confidencial exclusivamente dirigida a su destinatario o destinatarios y propiedad de Vodafone España.
