well it's probably slightly more complicated than that, but of course for the price paid and the huge tv income coming in does seem smart move. Fulham's squad pretty old mind and I think they do rather need some investment into it to maintain it's position, they were sliding a lot second half of last season, so costs of bringing players in needs to be added to that.

Watching the Colombian championship final, literally every 20 seconds there's a commercial. This is in-play advertising like, some images come up on screen and the sound of the stadium and commentators is muted and you have some cunt yelling at you about a sale in the Colombiam equivalent of Tesco.

 

Fucking unwatchable.

 

Any fears this will happen on TV in Britain in the coming years?

Adverts have got gradually worse over the years, when I was little it was 3 minutes of adverts every 15 minutes, now it's about 5 minutes of adverts plus 3 minutes of network adverts and they can happen more often than 15 minutes. The BBC are getting really bad for their own network adverts in between programmes.

 

I think OFCOM will keep it away from being as bad as in America (in some cases they have adverts in-between the last scene's of a TV show and the credits then yet more adverts) but I do think it will get a little worse. Most adverts seem to be heading towards product placement though, their is little point in adverts now since people have Tivo and Sky+ type systems now. Though I do suspect that in future they will code the adverts so you can't skip them.

£77 to watch West Ham

 

Non-season ticket holding West Ham fans could be asked to pay almost £1 per minute for the best seats in the house at the Boleyn Ground next season.

 

Earlier today West Ham United released details of the new Category A+ ticket prices, which are being introduced for matches against the Premier League's most successful teams.

 

And in order to watch the home matches against those clubs which may be declared Category A+ - namely the two Manchester teams and Liverpool plus London clubs Arsenal, Chelsea and Tottenham - Band 1 tickets for non-member, non-season ticket holders will be a wallet-busting £77.

 

Whilst members pay a fiver less (£72) for Cat A+ tickets, the cheapest on sale (Band 4) are £57 for non-club members and £52 for members. Meanwhile, Under 16s will be asked to find £43 should they wish to sit in Band 1 seats.

 

Enough to make you sick.

 

For £30 more you could get a season ticket at the Allianz Arena.  English football is a disgrace.

If wham fans want to have their eyeballs ripped out so they can pay Carroll's bar bill then who are we to give a shit.  :lol:

 

£1 per min for a FSA team, there probably isn't a worse ratio of football:cost in the world mind  :lol:

ITV tried but they missed a goal and probably won't do it again.

 

I think we're fairly safe atm.

 

YT - ITV1 HD misses first England goal in the World Cup [ORIGINAL]

 

That was just a cock-up, not a concious plan to stick adverts in during the game. I read the back-story to the glitch - can't remember it in full but I'm sure it was human error. The live crew's production feed is 20 seconds ahead of the broadcast. Knowing England had scored they went to make some kind of directorial alteration and I think it was as simple as somebody pressing the wrong button. Summat like that, anyway.

Al Jazeera Sports have won the rights to broadcast the PL in the middle east and north africa for the next 3 seasons, starting this august. For any of our members living in that area, you can now throw out the AD Sports package and invest in AJS.

 

Al Jazeera now have the complete package with the PL, Primera, SerieA, Ligue 1, both UEFA competitions and the world cup. Not sure about the Bundesliga and Eredivisie though. Must be costing them a bundle.

Hopefully. :thup:

 

Whoever else we manage to get through the door, she could still turn out our best signing of the summer.

 

This is probably worth posting elsewhere as well. Good news.
