Tiresias Posted October 11, 2011 Share Posted October 11, 2011 http://www.guardian.co.uk/football/2011/oct/11/liverpool-breakaway-tv-deal?CMP=twt_gu Liverpool's managing director, Ian Ayre, has insisted the break-up of the established broadcasting deal, worth £3.2bn in total to all Premier League clubs for 2010‑13, is "a debate that has to happen", with the Anfield club in favour of the Spanish model that allows Barcelona and Real Madrid to negotiate individual contracts that dwarf their domestic and European rivals. So they want to get more money than the other clubs, so that the league is even less even than it already is. In all honesty, even in the event Newcastle could get more money I think that it's pretty disasterous for the quality of football in the league. It's not an especially competitive league, and this would only make it worse. Hopefully nothing will come of it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

jukeboxromeo Posted October 11, 2011 Share Posted October 11, 2011 The only way to counteract the big teams getting bigger is a necessary culling of gloryhunters imo. It's in the interest of fair play. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
madras Posted October 11, 2011 Share Posted October 11, 2011 for clubs like liverpool and us it'll be good...for man utd it'll be fantastic...for the others it'llbe terrible, for football it'll cement the idea that we dont want competition and really want the stsus quo to carry on if not increase their strength and power.

johnnypd Posted October 11, 2011 Share Posted October 11, 2011 if anything it's the spanish league that needs to copy the premiership. in fact that's the very argument that's been rumbling on in spain for a couple of years now, put forward by just about every club that isnt called barcelona or real madrid.

dinotheprehistoricgeordie Posted October 11, 2011 Share Posted October 11, 2011 If this happens it'll be pretty pointless following the Premier League.

Nobody Posted October 11, 2011 Share Posted October 11, 2011 The mackems would go bust How about this; Liverpool fucks off, then we don't let them back when we change the deal, which in turn forces the mackems to go bust. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

jdckelly Posted October 11, 2011 Share Posted October 11, 2011 would suit Man U and Liverpool, thats about it. Every other premier league team would suffer to one degree or another with those like Wigan being more or less screwed while others like Bolton Sunderland and Everton being badly affected. It would decrease competition as with CL money and the ability to sell their own TV rights for obscene amounts of money compared to now how in gods name could anyone hope to compete with Man U Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Icke - Son of God Posted October 11, 2011 Share Posted October 11, 2011 I can't see a problem with this. Liverpool get a lot of money, spend it on average shite from around the Premier League and the other clubs use the fees from Kenny's wreckless spending sprees to keep themselves in business. Everyone wins...apart from Liverpool who have to see Carroll, Henderson and Adam joined by the likes of Gary Caldwell and Michael Turner. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Slarth Posted October 11, 2011 Share Posted October 11, 2011 If this goes through, I'd give up on the Prem. The gap is big enough as it is, let alone with the top 6 having even more cash to throw around. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cronky Posted October 11, 2011 Share Posted October 11, 2011 Why should the other Premier League clubs vote for that? Liverpool and maybe one or two other clubs could threaten a breakaway, but I don't think they'd get enough backing for that either. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big Geordie Posted October 11, 2011 Share Posted October 11, 2011 'm sure the other Spanish clubs outside of Barca and Real have just started complaining about how they are unable to compete fiancially because of the TV deals that these two clubs enjoy. Same thing would happen in the PL too, with the 'Big 4' further pulling themselves away from the rest and as a result, the cometitiveness of the PL will suffer (well it has been already for some years) If the big clubs want to do this - let them go and form their own super league because doubtlessly the fans in Asia will lap that up, if that's all what matters. Those who run football are intent on killing the game, IMO and want to squeeze every last penny out before they do. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
