Greedy bstards have won?

The top 6 in premiership clubs have won right to more overseas money than the other clubs! They say it's because the world wants to watch them not the minions like us? Where does it end a situation like real & Barca where they get majority of la leaga money because everyone wants to watch them! :o :banghead:

Yes they are greedy , but it doesn`t make a huge difference to the other clubs , which is why they probably persuaded enough other clubs to vote for the new plan.

It only takes effect from season 2019/20 and is only in respect of any foreign t.v. rights negotiated under a new deal starting then over and above those being earned under the current deal which are shared equally at £40.8m. Every club will still get at least £40.8m from this part of the t.v. money.

Current domestic t.v shares , central commercial rights and the formula for shares dependent on league finishing positions will not change.

The new deal also guarantees that the highest earning club from all sources of t.v. money will not earn more than 1.8 times that earned by the lowest earning club. At present that ratio is 1.6
