Should be noted that these are domestic broadcast deals only.
Wait how can the English fans pay so much more than the other fans from their respective countries to justify this difference in revenue domestically? I thought the premier league had an edge solely due to the much larger foreign market
It costs £740 annually to subscribe to all the services currently showing PL matches, so about €900. That's not an insurmountable expenditure for someone with a decent job in any European country, although it certainly stings a bit.
As an American, that’s pretty cheap.
I’m paying about $170 a month for the cable package and three streaming services necessary.
The full sky package + TNT + amazon prime I believe works it more than $170 in the UK, although you do get the other sky sports channels and probs Internet with it . I'm not sure how much they charge the pubs for it , but there's a lot of sports pubs in the uk .
I don't know many who even pay for it all, most of my mates have a dodgy firestick
