Amazon secure some uk tv rights for the cl - starts 2024
The technology giant will have the first pick of matches on a Tuesday, with BT Sport retaining the rest of the rights to the Champions League, Europa League and Europa Conference League.
The UK deal is understood to be worth around Ā£500 million ($607 million) a year to UEFA for the three seasons between 2024 and 2027 ā an increase of 20 percent on the current
Wonāt that be when the silly group thing comes in.
Probably wonāt impact me much the issue will be the knockout rounds but yeah itās another subscription for some.
17 matches on a Tuesday so assume every team features four times it will be 2-3 league games, probably subscribe if it was a bit Quarter final second leg
Anyhow looks like the BBC have highlights so good to see itās back on terrestrial in some form.
At least the BBC are ready for Man Uās highlightsā¦

I always saw Sky sports eye-wateringly expensive and I think Ive only had it for 1 season for the 14 years Iāve lived here, but with all the tv rights to FAC,LC,CL and EPL being split between so many parties, surely adding them all up and we are all spending much more than we were before in the name of breaking the monopoly?
Its obviously not a unique problem to the UK. But watching your team every week is becoming harder and harder. I should be thankful that I support LFC where most of the games are reliably going to be on the biggest network.

Yes and no vis a vis the monopoly. Yes more providers means more subscriptions on the flip side a monopoly would enable extortionate fees far beyond whatever people pay this days. Personally I sail the seven seas of the internet in search of football streams.
Media companies are a leech on fans and longer they get away with their treatment of fans the more theyāll take the piss.

Iām not in principle opposed to paying a company to watch football.
I am however very much opposed in principle to paying a company money that then goes to shit commentators.

I used to do that a few years ago. But even though the streams were very reliable (and sometimes in 4k) they would sometimes buffer during big matches and I just ended up preferring to have proper, legal sports streams. Well, getting legit broadcasts from another country is still not legal, but close enough!

I also prefer proper broadcasts but the shit is getting more and more expensive.
DAZN was 9,99ā¬ a month when they started with the Premier League in 2016? They donāt have the PL anymore but they have the rights for CL, FA Cup and League Cup.
Well from next month on it will be 29,99ā¬ per month.
