Good thread on TV money for the top 5 leagues

Liverpool earning the most out of everyone, Huddersfield earning more than JUVE

I really like seeing these breakdowns for some strange geeky reason.

I read Bournemouth's accounts in a twitter breakdown like this and 1 thing i mainly remember is Man Utd and Arsenal both earn in 2 match days than Bournemouth do all season.

The British lap up their football. Good for keeping the proles' minds diverted

Just looking at the Bournemouth income from TV rights and Uniteds annual revenue means it can't be correct.

More interesting:

- Fullham the No.20 of the EPL received more money from TV rights than the No.1 in Germany, Fc Bayern and the same as all Dutch clubs combined in 1 year.
- Clubs like for instance Bournemouth, Fullham, Norwich, Brighton etc.etc. completely float on TV right money. For most of them it's easily more than 80% or even 90% of their annual revenue. Earnings that they've had no influence on, because who's interested in Bournemouth, Fullham etc.
- Ajax received about €12m last season form the Dutch TV right deal, which is less than the No.1 of the 2nd Bundesliga in Germany. Partly because the Dutch FA made the costly mistake to sign a TV rights deal with Fox for 12 years worth more than a billion Euro. Meanwhile even the Belgium TV rights deal is worth more annually.

Not surprising when you consider that Bournemouth's home ground has a total capacity of 11,300 whereas most other Premier League clubs fit more than that in a single stand.

yeah sorry i meant as in ticket revenue, As 48 said i guess it isn't too hard to believe but just something i hadn't ever thought of until i read it.

Saying that when they looked at wages vs final league position Bournemouth where in same position in both tables.

I read something last season thar Bournemouth (and a few other PL clubs with low capacity grounds) could survive with no supporters attending and an empty ground all season

It's no surprise Liverpool are top with the media love for them. Same goes for Leeds in the Championship. Both teams are pretty much on the tv every week.
