They would sell the rights to another company - someone will pay it because they will end up making a profit

I'm amazed that the prize for finishing bottom Will be £100m.
Then add in the parachute payments to those clubs, will we see more clubs in financial difficulties trying to get to "the promised land"?
With this obscene amount of money coming into the game isn't it about time all fans of all clubs got behind the "20 is plenty " for ticket prices?

I honestly don't think anyone else could or would tbh. Only other way is if clubs negotiated their own tv rights like Bar a and Real done

That's what that slimey fecker scudamore will tell yer.
Al Jazeera already have all the league games I doubt they'd cough up another 5billion...

This will also mean that any team in the bottom 3 or possibly bottom 5 will sack at least one manager during the season, as the chairman will panic so much on losing out on the money they get in the Premier League.

Lol.. I once appeared on Sky Sports as part of a group of Latics fans being interviewed.. Using that logic, I'm now claiming my percentage of the new TV deal.. I reckon £3 million should cover it...

I'll add my own Ha!
The only part that could even remotely makes sense is if lower divisions in England get any of the 5 billion then Scottish leagues should be included in that formula
If however we're not included then we should be able to show 3pm Saturday EPL games live in Scotland as they do in Ireland

Agree with 1st paragragh, but not the second.We need to protect and at least attempt to grow the game in Scotland.Showing Saturday 3pm football wouldn't do that.

It's STV, the national commercial TV station in Scotland.

What a load of rubbish! So by that reckoning English football should get a cut of the tv deals for Barcelona and Real Madrid whilst golf in Europe should get a cut of the PGA Tour's loot.

Agree, my 2nd para was more to show we cant possibly be oversees/foreign as we'd never be able to do the 3pm thing whether we wanted to or not (and if not overses in terms of broadcasting then any money if fed down from the tv rights, should include English & Scottish leagues)

Someones got to pay for the professional footballers crazy salaries and ridiculous transfer fees - looking at you Gareth Bale!
The world of football has gone money mad, plus of course many middlemen and the cohorts of the FA will no doubt be taking a slice of the pie too!
