Mac Posted August 21, 2006 Report Share Posted August 21, 2006 I believe we get the money from a contract negotiated by the FA. It is basically for being a Premiership side and all the added TV rights sold world wide. I think there is a a pot of sponsorship money which contributes.

Mac Posted August 21, 2006 Report Share Posted August 21, 2006 Well worth having, but I wonder how much will go to shareholders as dividends, and how much will be made available for "improvements"?. ATB Mac Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StevO Posted August 24, 2006 Report Share Posted August 24, 2006 isnt it £26m even if you come bottom of the league? i dont see it as we will get £26m+, because everyone else will get that too. so prices and wages will go up, but if the contract doesnt continue after the 4 year deal has finished, then alot of clubs will still have players on wages they can not afford with out it. a player worth £8m today will be worth about £14m next summer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
